January is when gyms pack capacity crowds full of people who have resolved to get fit and healthy — people who have said, “This year is the year.” That’s why I picked this month to announce that EBN will feature Biggest Loser success stories throughout 2011 in the magazine and on its new video/slideshow channel, BenefitsTV.
Show me your biggest and best workplace achievements in getting employees healthier, and I’ll broadcast them to anyone and everyone I can. Your success stories don’t just have to be about weight loss; I’ll happily take triumphs of all forms — smoking cessation, lowered cholesterol and/or blood pressure, controlled blood glucose — but I especially want to highlight efforts to tackle obesity and diabetes.
