Weight loss programs for employees
Free weight loss programs If a company does not want to pay for a weight loss program for their employees there are options for free weight loss programs. A company can come up with ideas for ways to promote employees to lose weight.The office can get involved in their own Biggest Loser by offering an incentive to the top person or top three people that lose the most weight over a period of time. Though this program is free, a good incentive is usually money or a vacation so the employer would have to spend a little bit of their money to encourage results.
Weight loss programs offered through others There are many companies that are willing to help people to lose weight. These programs can be joined for a fee. Businesses can team up with these companies to offer their employees a way to lose weight. Places such as Jenny Craig can offer weight loss programs to both women and men employees. If an employee does not want to or does not have the time to go to an actual program they can use one that is online. Weight Watchers has an online aspect of their weight loss program, and the television show The Biggest Loser has the biggestloserclub.com where employees can sign up to receive a plan specific for them to help the employee lose weight. Weight loss programs concerned with diet When people take in more calories than they expend during the day they will gain weight. Because of this reason, many weight loss programs are specifically concerned with diet. They will teach employees how to follow the Food Guide Pyramid, how to count calories, and how to how to measure their food portions. Employees can help and encourage each other during their lunch break to eat less unhealthy foods and increase their intake of healthy foods such as fruits and vegetables. Since employees can work together they can also split entrees when they go out to eat during the weekdays or even the weekends.Office parties can offer healthy foods to encourage everyone to eat healthy, not just those that need to lose weight. Weight loss programs focused on exercise Some weigh loss programs are specifically focused on exercise. Exercise increases the amount of calories expended in a day. If a person burns more calories than they consume in a day the person will lose weight. It is important that employees participate in both cardio and weight lifting exercise to lose weight. A program that offers a diet and exercise aspect for weight loss will be most effective for employees to lose weight and make their changes a lifestyle change.
