A quick Google search reveals that losing weight is the number one New Year’s resolution. Get a start on that resolution and join UMW friends who have already lost over 1,000 pounds! Read this testimonial from one of our members:
“There comes a time in one’s life when you are no longer comfortable in your own skin. I got to that point last spring. My clothes felt tight, I had trouble sleeping and my back and joints ached. I was reluctant at first to join Weight Watchers. After all, I wasn’t FAT and didn’t want to eat SPECIAL FOOD. Plus, I wasn’t sure I would fit in. I was wrong on all counts. Weight Watchers is flexible and easy to follow. The on-line tools make tracking what I ate a breeze. I loved being able to enter my favorite recipes and restaurant entrees and find out how many points they are per serving – an eye opening experience! I lost weight by making simple modifications to my diet. I didn’t have to buy special food or deprive myself of the foods I love. The work support group provided encouragement , tips, and great camaraderie. I really liked getting to know other people on campus. The meeting time fit easily into my lunch hour and was very convenient. I met my goal and enjoy the group so much I plan to keep coming. I am truly grateful for this terrific benefit.” (Catherine)
