Ithaca College

Our Weight Watchers At Work meetings have been suspended 11 weeks into the 16-week session. Our leader, due to a job change, had to drop out, effective the first of the new year. We wish her the very best in her new position.

However, because of a serious lack of available leaders in the Ithaca area—in addition to meeting during the noon hour, which is difficult for those with full-time jobs—we are forced to suspend Weight Watchers At Work meetings until a new leader can be found.

Here’s where you Lifetime members come in. If you

• have dropped a minimum of 20 pounds with Weight Watchers®,
  
• are currently at goal or within five pounds of your Weight Watchers
  healthy weight range, and
  
• are interested in becoming a meeting leader,

then we—Weight Watchers and IC—need you!

Leaders conduct group meetings, weigh members, show them how to follow the Weight Watchers® weight loss plan, and motivate them to achieve their weight loss goals. Comprehensive and on-the-job training is provided to help make new leaders feel comfortable in their new position, and ensure effective presentations and management of meetings.

Each leader will have a weekly meeting guide to follow and inspire creativity in planning weekly lessons. Flexible hours and reasonable pay are offered along with discounts on products, and a supportive and helpful staff to assist them. Leaders enjoy the personal satisfaction that comes from helping others succeed. Becoming a Leader will also help them stay at their own healthy weight.

Weight Watchers® is always looking for caring people to work as Leaders in both the At Work and traditional programs to help our members change their lives for the better. If this sounds like something you'd like to do, then please contact Jackie Tucker at jctucker6@msn.com or call 800-234-8080.

If you have questions about the At Work meeting environment at Ithaca College, please contact Christine Haase, the campus coordinator, at haase@ithaca.edu or 607-274-1378.
