A new year often brings a renewed focus on health and wellbeing. The Drop 5 Challenge provides participants with the means to achieve a healthier body weight while encouraging positive lifestyle changes. Participants will log their starting weight at the beginning of the challenge and track their weekly weight loss progress. The challenge is anonymous – the weight logging is only for your benefit and is not publicly displayed anywhere.
Registration opens Monday, Jan. 22, and the challenge runs Monday, Jan. 29, through Sunday, March 10. Record your weight each week of the challenge to earn 25 My Wellness points.
