TGI Direct Among the Top ‘Losers’ in Weight-Loss Competition

Michigan is currently ranked as the 10th most obese state in the nation. Many local businesses are addressing the issue of wellness in the workplace, and ultimately looking at ways to reduce healthcare costs associated with obesity.

“At TGI Direct, we know that weight can be an indicator of health risks, and the ‘Win by Losing’ program presented a fun and healthy challenge that helped us promote wellness among our employees,” said Doug Bacon, president of TGI Direct. “We are proud that 18 of our associates decided to participate in the program and are thrilled that some have continued with the weekly weigh-ins and have fully adopted their new, healthier lifestyle.”
