David Turin, the owner of David's, noticed his staffers' girth increasing from year to year, and decided to do something about it. He started a 90-day weight-loss competition at the restaurant and will be rewarding the "biggest losers" on his staff with lots of cash.
Chefs, waiters, bartenders and other staffers who want to lose 25 pounds or more will receive $500 when they reach their goal. If they can maintain their goal weight for another month after reaching it, they'll win another $500.
Employees who have less than 25 pounds to lose receive a bonus of $15 per pound after they reach their goal weight.
There are also weekly prizes, such as a $25 gift certificate to Trader Joe's or the movies, for the person who loses the largest percentage of their body weight each week. Turin holds weigh-ins in his downstairs office every Friday morning.
