Over the past 12 weeks, the group of 113 workers from medical instruments firm KeyMed, based in Stock Road, Southend, took part in the Weight Watchers at Work programme during their lunch break.
It has proved such a success KeyMed bosses have decided to continue paying for its staff to take part in the scheme after the initial trial period is over.
Pauline Hume, 56, lost two stones to achieve her goal weight. She said: "I am really pleased with my success which was helped by the support of my colleagues and friends."
