Tucson Residents Pledge to Maintain a Healthy Weight
As part of milk's proud support for the American Heart Association's
Start! Heart Walks in cities across the country, the Campaign for Healthy
Weight will set up headquarters at walk events nationwide to rally
Americans to eat right, walk more and milk their diets. Participants at the
Tucson Start! Heart Walk on May 3, 2008, who will already be taking steps
towards a healthier lifestyle, will be able to join thousands of other
Americans who have taken a healthy weight pledge and voted for milk with
their upper lips.
While at the Start! Heart Walk, visitors can:
-- Join the Campaign and take the pledge to maintain a healthy weight in a
healthy way with milk
-- Get coupons and sample heart-healthy lowfat or fat free milk from Fry's
and Shamrock Farms
-- Speak with local registered dietitian, Liz Bustamante, who can explain
how simple, lifelong steps can help maintain a healthy weight and a
healthy heart
-- Take the Campaign for Healthy Weight Quiz to see how their weight
management habits compare to those of their fellow Americans

two-week Curves membership to help them to continue to be active
