MU’s Employee Wellness Committee would like to challenge you to lose 10 pounds in 10 weeks!

Attention faculty and staff: Millersville University’s Employee Wellness Committee would like to challenge you to lose 10 pounds in 10 weeks, as part of Highmark’s “Drop 10 in 10” initiative.

Available to all employees, this 10-week program, which will run September 21 through November 30, will help you lose 10 pounds (or 10 percent) of your body weight through nutrition, exercise and behavioral changes.

This program is confidential and may be done individually, or you can participate in group meetings. The weekly meetings will be held Wednesdays at noon in Caputo Hall room 128, beginning September 21. Participants will receive a toolkit, which includes a Guide Book, Food and Fitness Journal, tape measure and resistance band. The cost of the kit is $18 per person (if you have a kit, you do not need to order another one).

Contact the Office of Human Resources, no later then September 2 to register. The Employee Wellness Committee asks those who register to participate for the length of their lunch break.

For more information, contact human resources at 872-3017.
