Join Weight Watchers at Work

Weight Watchers at Work is being offered again this fall. There is no obligation. Full- and part-time employees can join anytime.

Weight Watchers at Work also is open to spouses, dependents and students. You can choose from one of two discounted weight-loss programs:

A monthly pass that gives faculty, staff and students a trial period without the lengthy commitment. You have the option of at-work or local community meetings.
The online, tailored program allows for participation at your own pace.

Simply attend the meetings on Wednesdays at noon in Kent Student Center, Room 303. Your group leader will assist with the registration process or you can follow the directions at www.kent.edu/hr/benefits/weight-watchers-work.
