Fast Fact about Stony Brook University's Recreation Department

Fast Fact about Stony Brook University's Recreation Department 

I had the pleasure of speaking with Leslie Bellissimo of Weight Watchers International during a campus wellness event. For those who are unfamiliar with Weight Watchers, for over 40 years, Weight Watchers has helped millions of people around the world to lose weight!

Weight Watchers Philosophy

Weight Watchers has always believed that dieting is just one part of long-term weight management. A healthy body results from a healthy lifestyle - which means mental, emotional and physical health. Weight Watchers does not tell you what you can or can't eat. We provide information, knowledge, tools and motivation to help you make the decisions that are right for you about nutrition and exercise. We help you to make healthy eating decisions, and we encourage you to enjoy yourself by becoming more active. To provide motivation, mutual support, encouragement and instruction from our leaders, Weight Watchers organizes group meetings around the world. Members of our meetings who achieve Lifetime Membership have the opportunity to become Weight Watchers Leaders and Receptionists, sharing their personal weight loss success with others.- Information provided by Weight Watchers official website

This is a wonderful service and I found that many staff members and students have no idea Weight Watchers is provided within arms reach. So if you are working or studying at Stony Brook University, please be sure to stop by the recreation Department and schedule your appointment.
