Jason, a 13-year veteran at <X Company> didn’t used to focus on his health and as a result, he had gained “a lot of weight”, especially when he used to travel on the job. When Vitality was first introduced, he didn’t pay any attention but finally, his wife got him to join her on a diet program. When it started to work, he realized just how rewarding it was - “I feel so much better having lost the weight; I just hope to keep it off” - and through Vitality, kept up with his efforts to lose weight. Not just that, he added several other accomplishments to his belt—climbing his first 14er (summit over 14,000 feet) with his son last summer and started running again, beginning with the Kolache 5K last year. Now he plans to complete a half marathon this year. He urges his fellow employees to “Just try it!” And he adds, “Lose a little weight and realize how much better you can feel. Then stay focused by setting a goal. My Momma always said, if you don’t know where you’re going, you’ll probably never get there.”
