The Iowa State Fair is less than a month away. If you want help navigating your way through red velvet funnel cakes, double bacon corn dogs, and fried macaroni & cheese (which alone has 1,756 calories!), Weight Watchers may be the solution.

Please join us at the last class of the current Weight Watchers at Work session on Monday, Aug. 1, at 11:15 a.m. in Cline Hall Conference Room 127. All faculty and staff who are interested in joining the next session will complete their registration and start the series the following week.

The cost is $156 for a 12-week renewable series with a minimum of 15 participants. Payment may be made in a lump sum or split into three payments.

Weekly meetings include a confidential weigh-in prior to the meeting, followed by a 30-minute class. Weight Watchers’ unique mix of face-to-face interaction with a trained leader, group support, accountability, digital tools, and the convenience of meetings in the workplace have helped participants be more successful than those who try to lose weight on their own.

If you are interested in joining Weight Watchers at Work, please contact Linda Feiden at linda.feiden@drake.edu. If you are interested but cannot attend the Aug. 1 meeting, arrangements can be made. Contact Linda for details.
