As healthy eating habits get put on the back burner, employee wellbeing suffers. Overweight employees are at higher risk for developing preventable and reversible lifestyle conditions such as high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, heart disease and certain types of cancer.
Employers pay an additional $1,500 to insure an obese employee versus a healthy weight employee. Research shows that even a modest reduction of body weight can reduce the expected lifetime healthcare costs of obesity-related diseases by $2,200 to $5,300.
Our signature weight loss program is designed to motivate and inspire employees to make healthy lifestyle changes that will affect them for years to come. The interactive easy-to-follow format assists employees to make simple and effective changes in everyday habits to keep the weight off for life!
Participants learn to incorporate label reading, exercise, smart grocery shopping techniques and healthy meal planning into their lives. They also learn about the mind-body connection, rarely covered in most programs, and how to make a life-long transformation. Our weight management team consists of dietetic technicians and registered nutritionists accustomed to working with corporate populations.
