Would you risk your entire savings and start your own company in this economy? That is what Kim Bensen did! And she did it after losing more than 200 pounds! After her story hit the mass media, many people were sending Kim e-mails asking how she lost the weight, what kept her focused, and how she managed the willpower to stay ‘with it’ this time. Soon she had penned a cookbook and she and her husband used $20,000 as seed money to start their own weight-loss company. Before long Random House came knocking and made a preemptive offer on her book, Finally Thin!
Today, she has 10 employees devoted to helping people lose weight. Her line of fresh bagels, Kim's Light Bagels, are available in grocery stores across New England. And now she's entering the snack food industry with Kim's Light Bagel Chips. Her company sends a weekly e-newsletter to over 25,000 subscribers, she holds in-person meetings in Shelton, CT and will soon be opening a new 12,000 square foot facility, the Kim Bensen Weight Loss Center. She also offers online subscriptions to her LIVE WITH KIM weight loss meetings which has members from all 50 states.
Kim has been featured on the Dr. Oz Show, Nightline, the cover of Prevention, Women’s World, Connecticut Magazine, MSNBC Today Show, Better TV, Good Morning America, Extra, and will be in All You magazine this July.
