First, our Wellness Coaches, George, Terasa, Mimi and Francine would like to begin with a BIG “thank you” to all who have already stopped by to check us out and welcome us to the neighborhood. The interest has been phenomenal and is a testimony to how society is changing its view on what a healthier lifestyle and good nutrition can mean.
As quoted from Paul Zane Pilzer, “Wellness is projected to be the next trillion dollar industry,” this from the man who predicted the two other trillion dollar industries, the food business and the internet and if you’ve been following this industry his prediction is coming true. The media is constantly buzzing with stories covering the ever increasing obesity epidemic. The health care industry is booming and diet and exercise ads are more plentiful than ever. The pharmaceutical industry is going crazy with ads for pills that are intended to cure just about everything, as long as you are not one of the unfortunate ones who might suffer the “side effects.” Why is this happening? People are craving ways to feel better, look better and live longer healthier lives. We are tired of being sick and tired!
In society today we live in the fast lane. Everyone has to be somewhere in a hurry so stress is up and caring for ourselves is down. We no longer take the time to prepare the “family” meal we used to. For most people it becomes too time consuming or everyone’s schedule is so hectic we can’t get the family together even if we did prepare the perfect meal. Fast foods, which used to be a treat, are now a staple of life and unfortunately, though they fill you up, are lacking in nutrition and loaded with unnecessary calories.
This is how the concept of Nutrition Clubs were born, a place were you can go, grab a quick HEALTHY meal, some energizing fat burning green tea and gather information on some healthy lifestyle alternatives. We begin the process by educating people on proper nutrition, teaching them how they can work it into their busy lives and offer ongoing support to reach their goals. And if the growth of these clubs across the country is any indication of people’s desire for change, the nation is definitely ready! Six months ago there were fewer than 75 Nutrition Clubs in the US, today there are just under 200 and a conservative prediction estimates there will be 2000 this time next year. We are proud to say we are the first in South Jersey.
With our first two Weight Loss Challenges underway we are seeing a community come together and having a great time in the process! We have fun with nutrition, offer fantastic group support and make sure there is accountability so the group’s success is high. The $29 registration fee is what fuels the prize pot and is paid back in prizes to the top 3 Biggest Losers. There is never a fee for our coaching services.
We would like to close with an invitation to come by, have a FREE meal replacement shake, our herbal green tea and body analysis on us and check out our Biggest Loser success board! We are gathering new stories every day.
