In 2005, The Discovery Health National Body Challenge helped thousands of men and women across the country remove more than 395,000 pounds of excess weight--almost to 200 tons--and nearly twice the amount that Challengers lost in 2004. Now best-selling author and Discovery Health Channel medical spokesperson Dr. Pamela Peeke provides you with all the tools, advice, and encouragement you need to reclaim your health and become a Body Challenge success story yourself. On the 12-week program, which can be personalized to meet your specific goals, you'll learn how to make stress reduction, proper nutrition, and exercise a top priority in your life. Stick with it and you'll firm your muscles, burn fat, and handle stress and emotions through an integrated mind-mouth-muscle approach. You'll discover how your slimmed-down, toned-up body will reflect in other, more profound changes including improved health, more energy, and greater self-confidence. You can witness the evidence of the results you can achieve in the remarkable before-and-after pictures and inspiring words of participants who transformed their bodies and lives on the program. Make this is the year "you" become a participator instead of spectator. Are you up to the Challenge?
