GET FIT from Head to Heel!
Open to UNC Students & Faculty/Staff

Get Fit from Head to Heel! is a 10-week healthy lifestyle, weight loss and physical activity challenge available to UNC-Chapel Hill students and employees. The program, formerly called Carolina’s Biggest Loser, is designed for individuals interested in modifying their lifestyle and adopting healthy, new patterns.

With the support of a team and coach, participants will attend weekly fitness challenges and nutrition sessions. The program emphasizes the importance of maximizing physical activity and making healthier lifestyle and eating choices. The program not only provides motivation and support, but the resources to be successful. The impact of the program can best be described by feedback from past participants.

“I was at a standstill…I was sick of dieting, I was sick of exercising, I was sick of everything, and I needed a little push…”

“I’ve tried new things that I never thought I’d do, and learned that I actually like exercise, which I never thought would happen…”

“Whether you’ve lost a little bit or a lot, the results give you the confidence you need to know you are on the right path.”
