Announcing the start of our fall Weigh to Change Program

We are excited to announce that all 3 of our branches will now offer a 10-week weight loss program called Weigh to Change following the success of our Foxboro spring program where 31 members lost a total of 267 pounds and 318.5 inches. Our fall program begins September 12th and will run through November 19th.

Meet Jed Neureuter, winner and one of our success stories from our spring program. He lost a total of 30 lbs. and 43.9 inches. Here is his story:

“As a result of the Weigh to Change program, I feel great! If I were to sum it up, the program was all about education for me. Now I know how to eat well and exercise properly.

The nutrition component was eye opening. The Styku scans, calorie counting, nutritional food recommendations and supermarket tours were all learning opportunities…I now know better what, when and how much to eat.

The personal training component has me hooked on exercise to complement my improved diet. I learned what Burpees and Pilates are, and even how to Spin. With Michelle, I learned how to do TRX and a new meaning of “sweet sixteen” among several others. The Y staff personalized my workouts and kept them interesting, introducing new exercises, stretching, foam rolling and the Sprint 8. I’ve experienced just about every exercise contraption the Y offers and I’m not longer intimidated to try the group exercise classes.

I know how to eat well, how to exercise properly and realize it’s just the start. The Hockomock Y has put together a great program framework and a great supportive team. I couldn’t be happier to have been part of this program.”
