"Fun, Fit and Fabulous" empowers women to be healthy

Highmark and Highmark Blue Cross Blue Shield West Virginia's 2014 Fun, Fit and Fabulous health conferences in both Pennsylvania and West Virginia brought women from all walks of life together to hear health, nutrition and fitness experts address topics that would educate, entertain and inspire them to be their best selves.

The theme of this year’s Fun, Fit and Fabulous conferences was "I'm Every Woman," reflecting the fact that women fulfill so many roles for so many people, often to the point of being overwhelmed by daily life.

The conferences have helped more than 12,000 women since 2003 by empowering them to lead lives of health and vitality. Through dozens of workshops, the conferences have educated women about physical activity, healthy cooking and preventing cancer, diabetes and heart disease.
