WEIGHT WATCHERS AT SBU LOOKING FOR MORE MEMBERS

Is a healthier lifestyle part of your plan for the New Year? Weight Watchers has recently made changes to its Weight Watchers At Work sessions and the new year is an opportunity for you to look at Weight Watchers again. Why not give Weight Watchers a try? If you have any questions about the Weight Watchers program at SBU or how to register, contact Carrie Fidurko at ext. 2294 or wellness@sbu.edu.

With the new program you will pay a monthly fee of $39.95 (about 17 percent less than the previous At Work program) with a SBU specific login at https://wellness.weightwatchers.com. The new price is the same price you would pay for any of the local meetings but with the convenience of meeting right here on campus. This price includes the meetings and the e-tools available on www.weightwatchers.com. In addition, your commitment to the program is now month to month, instead of signing up for a multi-week session at one time. We do need a minimum of 20 people to continue this service on campus. If we reach 20 people, weekly meetings will be held at 12 p.m. Tuesdays. Please pass this information on to anyone who might be interested.

Weight Watchers At SBU is open to employees, students, spouses, and the rest of the University community.

Keep Striving for the Best U.
The BonaFit Employee Wellness Committee
