Nutrition Not Another Resolution: Nutrition for You launches its New Year's Weight Loss Challenge

San Francisco, Calif. (PRWEB) November 28, 2008 -- Nutrition for You, the advanced online weight-management service founded by nutrition expert Manuel Villacorta MS, RD, CSSD has announced the launch of its New Year's Weight Loss Challenge (http://www.nu4you.net/nutrition-for-you/learnmore/weight-loss-challenge.aspx). "The New Year is upon us and many of us make the same old resolution to lose weight but fail to keep the promises," says Villacorta. "We are offering an alternative and effective way to achieve weight loss goals successfully. It's not another diet or not another gym membership. It's proper nutrition and not another resolution."

Nutrition for You provides a comprehensive weight management plan and powerful online toolkit created by nutrition experts that is free of fads, gimmicks, advertisements and product endorsements. Dennis Allio, co-founder of Nutrition for You, who lost over 55 pounds two years ago, had this to say about the effectiveness of the program,

"Members that follow our nutrition program have great success. In a recent Challenge 100% of the participants who finished lost weight. The typical weight loss was between 1.5 and 3 pounds per week. This is healthy sustainable weight loss. The Weight Loss Challenge adds additional community support to the participants reinforcing the website tools and expert phone-based nutrition coaching."

Manuel Villacorta, a registered dietitian with years of clinical expertise in the weight-loss field points out that the Weight Loss Challenge is about more than just losing weight.

"Percent weight loss is only a portion of the total challenge requirements that include eating breakfast daily, keeping a food diary, meeting regularly with a trained nutrition coach, exercise and eating a low fat diet.

"Many weight loss programs wrongly try to convince people that losing weight and learning about nutrition is as easy as counting calories. For optimal health losing weight is a lifestyle change that requires a long-term commitment to eating well.

Our Weight Loss Challenge gives you expert nutrition advice, coaching, realistic goals, and eating habits that are sustainable long-term."

The New Year's Weight Loss Challenge will run from January 4th to March 29th. During this 12-week period, participants will have access to Nutrition for You's safe, reliable, science-based weight loss program, which will be customized to the participant's needs with an initial goal of losing a safe 1.5 pounds per week.

The Weight Loss Challenge registration fee is a onetime charge for 12 weeks of nutrition membership to Nutrition for You and a chance to win prizes that include a Polar heart rate monitor and additional three months of Nutrition for You membership.

The deadline to enter the Weight Loss Challenge is December 31st.
