Greenville, NC (PRWEB) January 8, 2007 -- Recognizing the void in the diet, food and health fitness industries for African Americans, the New Black Cultural Diet website (www.newblackculturaldiet.com/TheNewBlackCulturalDietNewLookfor2007.htm) featuring special Podcast Shows was launched in 2006 to help African Americans learn, share stories, and develop new cultural strategies related to losing weight, maintaining weight loss, exercise, body image, food selections, food preparation and general good health practices. Medical Anthropologist Eric J. Bailey created this new forum so that African Americans and all those who share similar issues can have a place on the internet committed to creating a new healthier lifestyle.

In order to motivate everyone regardless of one's socioeconomic, ethnic, or lifestyle background, the New Black Cultural Diet Team is organizing and sponsoring the 2007 New Black Cultural Diet Weight Loss Challenge. This Weight Loss Challenge is for all those who want to change their body image, food selections, food preparation, and exercise regimen. The Grand Prize Winner will become the primary spokesperson for the New Black Cultural Diet program.

This six-month Weight Loss Program (February 1, 2007 - August 1, 2007) asks registered participants to complete a written journal and/or video documentary on how they are making healthier choices in their food selections, how they are preparing foods in a healthier method, and how they are changing their exercise regimen. Once a month for 6 months, participants are asked to submit their written journal and/or video to the New Black Cultural Diet Team in order to show measureable changes in their body, food selections, food preparation and exercise regimens. The Grand Prize Winner will be determined by total weight loss, total body image change, and changes in food selections, food preparation and exercise regimen. Second and third place finishers will also be recognized with conciliation prizes.

The New Black Cultural Diet Team is also searching for sponsors associated with our 2007 Weight Loss Challenge Program. Companies interested in marketing and promoting their healthy food products and exercise fitness products are encouraged to partner with us so that the New Black Cultural Team can offer more products to participants and the Grand Prize Winner.

Requirements for participating in the 2007 New Black Cultural Diet include: 1) Completing registration form, 2) Meeting the Criteria Requirements for the Challenge, and 3) Adhering to the Measurements Evaluated form. All forms are available at the New Black Cultural Diet website.

We look forward to all those who are ready for a challenge in creating a new healthier lifestyle for themselves in 2007 and beyond!
