Spa Week and Keri Glassman Present The Stay Summer Slim Giveaway

NEW YORK - July 2, 2013 - PRLog -- You’ve spent endless hours at the gym, tried out every fad diet there is and even splurged on that “must-have” anti-cellulite lotion all your friends are raving about in preparation for bathing suit season. Now that summer has officially arrived, it’s time to maintain a healthy weight which means not giving into all of the high-calorie temptations that accompany this season… hamburgers, hot dogs, margaritas, lemonade, ice cream…the list goes on.

After all of the hard work you’ve devoted to getting your body in tip top, beach-ready shape, the last thing you want is to lose all self-control at this Sunday’s big barbeque. That’s why Spa Week has teamed up with nationally recognized nutrition expert Keri Glassman (http://www.nutritiouslife.com/) to make sure one lucky winner stays on track this summer by entering the Stay Summer Slim Giveaway (http://www.spaweek.com/promotions/summerslim).

During the month of July, visitors to SpaWeek.com can enter for a chance to win an exclusive, uber-chic trip to New York City that’s all about eating right and making smart, healthy choices. One lucky winner and guest will meet with Keri Glassman face-to-face for a private, nutrition counseling session. Whether it’s the desire to learn about delicious, health-conscious recipes to make at home, the smart way to dine out or how to properly read nutrition labels, Keri will be there to answer questions and give advice tailored to the winner’s lifestyle and goals. With all that they’ve learned, they’ll put their new knowledge in healthy eating to the test with a grocery shopping trip to Whole Foods with one of Keri’s dieticians who will help guide them into making the right food choices now and in the future.

While learning how to get “slim in the city,” the winner and guest will also “stay in the city” for two nights at Midtown Manhattan’s Ink48, A Kimpton Hotel (http://www.ink48.com/). Complete with daily breakfast, a welcoming picnic basket filled with delicious, healthy snacks, Personal Training Session with Ink48’s Fitness Curator, Danielle Harrison, and VIP Access to the Ink48 Bikes to explore the Big Apple, they’ll be in a “New York (healthy) State of Mind” in no time.

In order to help the winner stay on course, he/she will go home with a signed copy of Keri’s latest book, The New You and Improved Diet and $175 in Spa & Wellness Gift Cards by Spa Week^® to relax body and mind at his/her choice of over 7,500 spas and wellness locations across North America.

“This is the time of year when we try to look our best, but there is so much temptation to eat all of the wrong foods,” said Cheryl Reid, CEO and Founder of Spa Week Media Group. “Millions of people look up to Keri Glassman as a healthy eating advocate, and we are thrilled for the opportunity to have one of our very own SpaWeek.com consumers meet with her in person.”

About Ink48, A Kimpton Hotel

Kimpton's Ink48 makes its mark in New York City's burgeoning and historic Hell's Kitchen neighborhood. A full-service lifestyle hotel situated on the southwest corner of 11^th Avenue at 48^th Street, Ink48 is close enough to the city's iconic epicenter yet far enough away to be an inviting and playful urban retreat. Paying homage to its printing house past, this 222-room, 17­-story hotel with its inviting rooftop lounge and unobstructed sweeping views of the Hudson River facing west, and the Midtown Manhattan skyline facing east, makes an indelible imprint as the first upscale midtown hotel to grace the far west of Times Square. A Hell’s Kitchen standout at Ink48 Hotel, PRINT. Restaurant is straightforward, sophisticated and uncommonly committed to sustainability.  The Press Lounge offers cocktails and light fare complimented by unobstructed views of Manhattan and the Hudson. Opened in 2010, it quickly became recognized as one of Manhattan's finest rooftop lounges; Frank Bruni, of the New York Times, wrote that The Press Lounge was "without question, one of the city's most attractive rooftop bars". In the same year, New York Magazine recognized it as New York's "Top New Rooftop Bar," ABC News.com rated it as one of the top 22 rooftops in the world.
