Instructions

Things You’ll Need:

  • Email address
  • Scale
  • Notebook

Let's Lose Some Weight Together

  • Step 1:
    Send out an email to all of your coworkers about your desire to start a weight loss club in the office. Ask them to email you back by the end of the week if they are interested in joining the office weight loss club.
  • Step 2:
    List in your notebook the names of all your coworkers on individual pages that want to join the office weight loss club. This will give you room to list all of their weigh-ins for the weight loss club.
  • Step 3:
    Email your coworkers that you will conduct weigh-ins every Tuesday at your desk. Make sure to give them a time that they must report by so that you can get everyone weighed during the course of the day.
  • Step 4:
    Keep track of the members' weight losses each week. Send out a newsletter through email every Friday congratulating the week's big losers, and give a weight loss tip of the week.

Tips & Warnings

  • Cheer on each member of your weight loss club at the office with every pound that they lose.
  • Offer invites to join the office weight loss club any time someone is hired at your office.
  • Do not put anyone down for not losing weight. Encourage them to try harder next week.
