The Lighten Up Program Book

The Lighten Up Program Book is an easy-to-follow, 155-page guide for bringing Lighten Up into your community of faith. The introduction provides the Lighten Up history, results and health check guides to help you set goals. Data discussed will be weight, body fat, blood pressure, blood cholesterol, triglycerides, high density lipoprotein (HDL), low density lipoprotein (LDL), very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) and glucose.

The following eight chapters will highlight scripture, inspirational stories, and health messages to inspire, teach and encourage you to take the steps to improve your health through nutrition, exercise and spiritual growth. Each chapter provides a behavior change checklist and journal to record your thoughts and food diary.

The last chapter in the book is devoted to recipes and cooking tips. Our recommendation is for each participant to have a book.

The cost is $25 per book.
