HOW can you be a loser and a winner all at the same time? It's easy; simply win a prize competition at a health and fitness centre by shedding the pounds off a flabby frame!

The DreamBody Centres located in Hamala and Seef will be staging three 12-week contests during the year.

The competitions aim to raise fitness awareness and help people maintain healthy bodies through a 23-minute weight loss training schedule supported by an eating plan produced by GulfWeekly columnist Alia Almoayed.

The winner of the round starting in April will receive BD1,001 and at the end of the season all contestants will be evaluated on maintaining their weight and one will walk away with the grand prize - a Toyota Fortuner car.

Suhail Al Gosaibi, CEO and centre founder, said: "We thought of awarding those who are working hand-in-hand with our trainers ... and to heat up the challenge among them to achieve even better results.

"I am so proud of those working on making their dreams come true without resorting to harmful methods generally used to loose weight temporarily".

The Gulf region suffers from high levels of obesity which is linked to chronic diseases such as diabetes, high blood pressure and joint pain.

Mr Al Gosaibi believes it is important to bring the government and the private sector together to spread health awareness and to help people of various age groups to improve their nutritional habits and integrate a workout into their busy lifestyles.
