JARED S. FOGLE
 Everyone knows Jared Fogle! Jared tipped the
scales at 425 pounds while a student at Indiana University. After
unsuccessfully attempting numerous diets, Jared grabbed a nutritional
information brochure at his local SUBWAY® restaurant and started a
reduced calorie diet by eating two SUBWAY® submarine sandwiches a day.
In a year’s time, and by incorporating exercise into his daily routine, Jared
lost 245 pounds. Since then, Jared has appeared in numerous commercials for
SUBWAY® restaurants and has traveled throughout the world talking about the
importance of proper dieting and exercise. Earlier this year, Jared embarked on
the “Jared & Friends School Tour” which is designed to teach children the
benefits of healthy living. Since it started, Jared has spoken to more than
31,000 students. Jared has appeared on the “Oprah” show and “Larry King Live,”
was the subject of a story on the CBS news program “48 hours” and was featured
in the Washington Post, to name just a few.
Since Jared’s commercials aired, the SUBWAY® corporate headquarters
has received thousands of letters, e-mails and photos from people who have been
inspired by Jared to lose weight and live healthier lifestyles. In all, these
people have lost a total of 160,000 pounds! (To get an idea of how much 160,000
pounds is, it is equal to: 14,545 skateboards; 10,000 Marching band Tubas;
1,568 sets of Encyclopedias; 842 Jareds; 492 Black Bears; 426 Gorillas and 184
Grand Pianos). Now, Jared tells his remarkable story of being overweight as a
child and how he decided to take control of his life and to eat right, exercise
and get fit!
*Individuals lost weight by exercising and eating a balanced, reduced-calorie
diet that included SUBWAY® sandwiches with 6 grams of fat or less. Their
results are not typical. Your loss if any will vary. SUBWAY® Restaurants does
not endorse the diet Jared created and cautions anyone embarking on a
weight-loss plan to consult their physician.
