This Wednesday I am speaking at the Austin kickoff for The 50 Million Pound Challenge presented by State Farm.
Spearheaded by "Celebrity Fit Club's" resident doctor, Dr. Ian Smith, The 50 Million Pound Challenge is an historic opportunity for African Americans to come together against a growing health crisis. Our challenge is to collectively lose 50 million pounds and reduce the very real risks that being overweight poses to our community.
Being overweight leads to obesity, high blood pressure, diabetes, cancer, and many other diseases.
The Challenge is free to join and provides relevant, timely, and helpful tips and guides to shedding those pounds.
I am truly excited about being a part of The Challenge because obesity is plaguing our society in all age groups. And the African American community is at a greater risk than most for the diseases brought on by obesity. As a Jazzercise instructor, I love assisting my clients as they reach their goals for healthy living. Being a part of The Challenge is an extension of that.
