Local residents lose over half a ton in 21 Day Detox Challenge

CONCORD, N.H. - Feb. 26, 2014 - PRLog -- Nearly 200 people from the Merrimack Valley recently participated in a 21 Day Detox Challenge under the guidance of the health team at Get Fit NH. The goal of the challenge was to remove certain foods that are both addictive and toxic to your body. This gives the systems of your body a spring cleaning.  “That’s not to say you can’t ever eat these foods again. No, we just want to give your body a short break so it can heal itself internally,” said Dean Carlson, owner of Get Fit NH. He went on to say, “When that happens, we see people lose incredible amounts of weight and see huge bursts of energy!”

“Cleaning up eating habits gives our bodies a rest and allows them to work optimally. We are not claiming this is a miracle or the answer to all your nutrition and health problems, but based on the comments we received, it sure made an impact for some people, and we are glad it did,” said Dean.

Participant Mary C. of Hudson called the program "life changing" and her doctor found that her inflammation markers "had not been this low since 2004." Susan L. of Deerfield said that she "became more mellow," and found that she had "better sleep and more energy." Dennis M. of Bow "lost 10 pounds and noticed increased muscle definition."

Weight loss was a happy side effect of this whole food eating plan, but it was a pretty BIG side effect. One hundred forty nine people lost 1083.6 pounds for an average of 7.27 pounds each...that is over half a ton!

Get Fit NH awarded prizes to Sue Brouillet of Concord for losing 19.6 pounds and Peggy Crisman of Bow for losing 8.19% of her body weight in 21 days. Each won prize packages provided by local sponsors Diane Bottcher of Ahh..Scentials, Christen Scanlon of Peace & Balance Body Therapies and Sonia Cormier of Thirty-One.

Get Fit NH is committed to helping the participants keep the momentum going. A new program, “I’m 21 Again” begins in March.
