Fall is the time when the trees shed their leaves. What better time for you to shed excess pounds?

A new campus Weight Watchers group is forming this fall. Instructor Diane Mulligan will offer advice on nutrition and diet along with support during the 12-week session.

Classes will meet Fridays at noon in the Nursing Education Building, 420 Guardian Drive. The cost is $134 for new participants and $129 for continuing participants. The introductory meeting will take place Friday, Sept. 6. If you can’t make the meeting but are interested in joining, e-mail sippola@nursing.upenn.edu for more information.
