No time for health and diet? Career-specific diet forums to the rescue

Feb 21st, 2008 | By Bill | Category: Employment News



So! You've finally gotten that dream job for which you've been searching for eons and eons. You find yourself enveloped in the daily excitement of producing results, discovering solutions, and beefing up the company's bottom line! Life is good until you realize:

You've kinda sorta forgotten about yourself. The time you used to spend at the gym or walking outside or playing DDR or … is now sacrified to your career. What can you do? Where can you go for tips on how to keep yourself healthy if when you're working your fingers to the bones?

The new diet and fitness community, Big Huge Minds at http://www.bighugeminds.com , now provides the answer for you. Created by Barbara Ling, Internet recruiting pioneer and trainer, it offers not only a weight loss community that prides itself on finding all the answers, but even a specific category for career-specific weight loss motivation at http://www.bighugeminds.com/career-specific-diet-motivation/ .

Every career field has its own limitations when it comes to getting fit…and what works for a police officer might be useless to an engineer. But at Big Huge Minds, people can post their specific problems their career gives them with regards to diet and health, and the community will spring into action.

I asked Barbara what motivated her to build this diet/fitness community. Among other things, she told me, "I've lost 45 pounds myself and found myself being asked by dozens of individuals for the resources I used. Many weight loss and diet communities don't like links to outside resources, but I don't agree with that whatsoever. Nobody (except my mom!) knows everything, but everyone knows something! Put all those 'somethings' together, and you'll get a vibrant power that delivers answers."

The community is only a week old, but more than 40 people have registered and are actively posting. If you have job-related diet questions, drop on by and ask! You'll love the responses you get.
