Weight Club Stresses Group Plan
Kansan Staff Writer
By JOCELYN WOLBER
With the many fried diets around these days, a weight reducing program that calls for the deter to eat more food than he wants can help. The other option is women who饿了 affers from most others.
Sand Thornton, lecturer and leader of the Lawrence Weight Watchers club, said that with some diet a person could skip meals and still stay fat, but that with Weight Watchers:"you can eat three square meals a day and lots of food."
The Weight Watchers program is not a diet, as any club leader will testify. Rather, it is a re-education for anyone wanting to lose weight.
Thorion said that if a weight reduction program were to work it should not be "just like work."
"You must learn to live with it if you plan to stay slim the rest of your life," she said.
Yall will be the rest of you they share
Weight Watchers will celebrate its 10th
birthday in June. The program is based on a diet that its founder, Nielde Nidder, received as a gift.
"The program is chemically balanced on a weekly basis," said Charla Longhurst, a weaver and clerk for the Lawrence Weight Watchers club.
Weight Watchers is based on a three-point program printed on the front of an attendance book, which all members must bring with them to every club meeting. The three points are "some talking, some listening and a program that works."
Each week club members are required to attend one Weight Watchers meeting for which they must pay $1. If they wish they may attend additional meetings each week at no charge. Only hospitalization or a death visit is permitted from attending at least one meeting a week.
To join Weight Watchers the prospective member must pay a $4 registration fee and
$3 for the first meeting. Students and senior citizens receive a discount, paying $2 for each person.
At the beginning of each meeting all members are weighted in by clerks, who record any weight loss or gain in the members' attendance books.
Those who have host a great deal of weight bring the week's receptive applause from the crowd.
One woman finally returned to a size 12 dress—she had been a size 24. For this accomplishment she received not only applause but cheers at a club meeting.
Members are encouraged by club leaders to interact with one another because the leaders think it is important for each member to realize that there are others like
"The meetings are getting away from the straight lecture," Thornton said. "Sometimes it comes down to a sensitivity period or confession period."

In addition to providing peer group support, Weight Watchers awards recognition pins to encourage its members to lose weight. Any member who loses 10 pounds within the first 16 weeks after joining the club receives a pin. Every 10- pound loss thereafter is rewarded by a small diamond chip added to the pin.
Members are continually working toward a goal weight which is determined from national insurance charts. This is a weight the member can hope to retain throughout his life.
The latter part of meetings are usually devoted to announcing which local merchants are having sales on certain foods of interest to Weight Watchers.

Introducing Levi Strauss if not for this man, Lawrence Surplus would be selling fruit.
Here is the man (Levi Strauss) who in 1850 made the first jeans (pants of Levi's) from tough canvas tenting. He dyed them indigo blue. Gave them a button fly. And so, the original shrink-to-fit blue Levi's jean, with the unique button fly was born.
