>At Towson University we are offering a free, 
>8-week weight loss program for adults who are 
>legally blind. The program is part of a study, 
>and everybody gets the weight loss program. As 
>soon as somebody completes the screening process 
>they are enrolled, and their program would 
>start. All participants get a free scale. The 
>scale does not talk, but your weight will be 
>sent to you via text on your phone. The weight 
>loss program focuses on helping you reduce a few 
>high calorie, low nutrition foods from your diet 
>to help with weight loss. There is potential for 
>a $25 gift card for participation. To learn 
>more, contact the Physical Activity and Public 
>Health Lab at <mailto:paphl at towson.edu>paphl at towson.edu.
