Kingdom Shopping Centre Helps Shoppers Shed Weight
For the third year running, Kingdom Shopping Centre is helping shoppers meet their weight-loss goals: it’s time for the 2013 Kingdom Weight Challenge.
It’s a free, 10-week program that gives shoppers a good reason to stick to their new fitness routines and diets: a team of people who they don’t want to let down. Teams of four can sign up—sticking with friends and family is encouraged—and they can aim to be the biggest losers: the top teams and individuals have the chance to win sponsored prizes that include six-month sports and leisure passes and more.
The program is supported by NHS Fife and Fife Sports and Leisure Trust, who will have nutritionists and dieticians on hand to help shoppers establish healthy eating weight-loss plans and point them toward appropriate activities for their levels of fitness.
To date, the program has helped locals lose an impressive 2.5 British tons (about 5600 pounds). That’s across over 800 participants, true, but that’s quite a lot of people who’ve managed to lose an average of 7 pounds each—many much more.
