"The weekly meetings are the
most helpful. The instructor
explains the programs and shares
tips at each meeting about the
challenges that we will face each
week. At WW at IPFW, we
draw support from each other in
our common struggle with
weight and living a healthier
lifestyle".-Penny Leverman,

Celebrate the Summer Olympics, August 8-24
Think the Olympics are just a time to sit on the couch and watch other great
athletes?!
You're wrong! Use the spirit of the 2008 Summer Olympics to inspire you and your
family to get active and try new or old sports!
Race down the block (running, walking or riding bikes!), rent a canoe or kayak,
create a steeple chase event in your backyard or at the park, try making a
synchronized swimming routine at the pool or make up your own summer Olympic
backyard event!

stop using tobacco between September 15, 2008 and October 15, 2008.

$1,500 and $1,000, respectively, will be awarded to the second-place and thirdplace
