Weight Watchers Challenge: Mini-Challenge Instructions

Weight Watchers Challenge participants can receive additional ribbons, and the chance to get more rewards by completing six mini challenges! These fun and motivating two-week-long challenges encourage team bonding and help participants stay on track with fun new ways to stay healthy holistically - food-wise, fitness-wise and emotionally.

If a team can complete the mini challenge tasks together, great! If they’re done individually, the team can choose a member who can help with the completion of the challenge task(s). The team captain should collect and submit verification that the team member completed the task. Once the team captain submits the verification for each mini-challenge, each team member gets a ribbon. Although it’s okay for each mini challenge to be completed by just one team member, all team members are encouraged to complete the tasks together and support one another.

Successfully-completed mini challenges along with other tasks in the Weight Watchers Challenge are rewarded with ribbons.

Mini-Challenge: Space Cleanup

Description: Get rid of unhealthy food items such as junk-food snacks, candy, or sugary sodas in your office and/or home workspace (mindlessly snacking during the workday is a major way to inhibit weight loss). By keeping unhealthy snacks away, you won’t be tempted to munch. At least one member of your team can clean up his/her workspace and take before and after photos. The team captain will submit a photo of one space cleanup (with before and after photos in a collage). There are many free phone apps for making picture collages—use any of them!

Holistic Focus: Food/Emotional

Verification: Submit before and after photo of the workspace

Ribbon: Space Cleanup

Fine print: Only submit one entry per team. Additional entries will overwrite earlier entries and additional ribbons will not be awarded. Entries unrelated to the specific topic of the mini-challenge will be removed and the ribbon revoked at the discretion of the challenge Host. In these cases, participants will be notified and may resubmit their entries to earn their ribbon.
