Jen Howie after Ironbody of the Month Q & A:

What made you want to do Iron90? 
 
The Iron90 system was presented at my workplace as a "no-brainer" solution for weight loss. 
 
There was absolutely no doubt in my mind that if the program was implemented properly, my weight loss goal would be reached. 
 
It was a very simple theory, eat smart, exercise smart.  I made the commitment that day and was the first employee to sign-up! 
 
What is different about Iron90 vs. past attempts to shed weight?
 
1. Utilizing the Heart Rate Monitor
 
2. The Iron90 Website's Accounting Tool; "My kcals in vs. My kcals burned" 
 
3. My customized caloric budget
 
4. Weekly workplace weigh-ins  
 
The Iron90 system enables me to work smart not hard, see results on a daily basis, eat whatever I choose in moderation, GUILT FREE, and keeps me accountable. This is a very smooth lifestyle transition.
 
How do you know that you will not gain the weight back?
 
Being a mother of three and grandmother of three, I now realize the impact that obesity has had on my family. Last week, I enjoyed a long walk to the park and fun at the playground with one of my granddaughters.  It was an amazing feeling to be able to fit and slide down the slide with her for two hours! 
 
I am committed to living in a healthy, strong body for myself and my family.
 
Why do you think this program worked for you?  
 
Iron90 empowered me to take control of my health. It is results oriented which sets me up for success each and every day. 
 
The website allows me to actually see the amount calories of burned and the exact amount of calories eaten which shows me the exact amount of fat I've burned off my body. 
 
The program has made me very aware of my overall health...the good, the bad and the ugly.    
      
What did you like the most about this program?  
 
Iron90 sets you up for success.  You are in the driver's seat.  You make your own food choices and stay within your calorie allowance making you feel in control. 
 
The heart rate monitor is your fitness coach and it is amazing how little it takes to burn calories.  The days of pushing myself to running out of breath and feeling like a failure are over! 
 
What would you tell people who are trying to lose weight?  
 
Iron90 puts you in the position of power.  You can decide to take control of your own health. Commit to the plan and take action NOW!

Iron90 Workplace Wellness: marcie 2A Culture of Health and Wellness
 
Question: What will it cost your organization if its does not put in place an effective Health and Wellness Program?
 
Recent reports suggests that employer health insurance costs may increase as much as 15% each year.
 
Employers understand that an effective Workplace Wellness Program is not a gym membership. Rather its a comprehensive program that creates an ORGANIZATION CULTURE OF HEALTH AND WELLNESS. An effective wellness program eliminates illness by focusing on their root causes namely, lifestyle and weight gain.
 
"Consider this: Right now, some 75 percent of health care cost is accounted for by heart disease, diabetes, prostate cancer, breast cancer, and obesity. What these five diseases have in common is that they are largely preventable and even reversible by changes in nutrition, physical activity, and lifestyle."  
 
-United States Senator Tom Harkin, June 25, 2009, Washington Post
