Heidi Roizen Develops Fun, Empowering, Radio-Quality Pop Music for Women Who Want to Lose Weight and Get in Shape

(HealthNewsDigest.com) - WOODSIDE, Calif., What do great music and losing weight have in common? According to one of Silicon Valley’s best-known venture capitalists and entrepreneurs, Heidi Roizen … just about everything. “In May I hit my all time high weight,” Heidi begins, “so I decided to commit myself to losing it for good this time. I wanted to find music that would keep me motivated about getting in shape and sticking to my diet. While I normally exercise to music by artists like Pink and Carrie Underwood, and their music is great, their lyrics didn’t speak to me about what I was trying to do. I figured, there is great, empowering music about all sorts of topics; there must be for this too. But, I searched for it, and just couldn’t find any.”

That is when Heidi decided to create her own hip music. She wrote the kind of lyrics she herself wanted to hear – stories about making a commitment, sticking to a plan, and getting into that skinny pair of jeans in the back of the closet. She then collaborated with accomplished music producers David Malloy, who has forty Number One Awards to his name, and George Daly, CEO of About Records and a former senior executive at Columbia and Atlantic Records, to create songs that range in style from driving rock to jamming hip hop, featuring amazingly talented emerging artists. With such empowering songs as Objects in the Mirror Will Get Thinner Than They Now Appear, The Incredible Shrinking Women, You Da Boss, I’m a Hottie Now, You Can’t Buy Thin and Skinny Jeans, her music celebrates commitment, strength and sex appeal.

Now, the 50 million people in America alone who take the annual pledge to lose weight will be able to find a voice – and some support and encouragement – in Heidi Roizen’s music.
“We are all incredibly proud of our work,” states Heidi. “We know that we are going to make a difference in encouraging people to right size themselves.” It certainly has worked for Heidi – by sticking to her fitness and diet plan with some help from SkinnySongs, she has lost 30 pounds, and recently zipped up her own skinny jeans.

SkinnySongs is available on Amazon and SnoCap, and will be available on iTunes December 15. Read more about the artists and hear the music at www.skinnysongs.com.
