There are many reasons to join a weight loss group. Some of the popular reasons to lose weight are for a specific health condition, self-esteem or just to be healthier. Listed below are five weight loss groups in the Syracuse, NY area. Before making an decision, please check with your doctor to see which weight loss group is right for you.

Jenny Craig. I'm sure everyone has heard of this weight loss group. They have two locations in the Syracuse, NY area. The Fayetteville office is located at 6813 East Genesee Street, Fayetteville, NY 13066. The phone number is (315) 449-4430. The Liverpool location is 8015 Oswego Rd, Liverpool, NY 13090. Their phone number is (315) 622-9930. Currently, Jenny Craig is running a weight loss program where you can lose 20 pounds for 20 dollars plus the cost of food. Jenny Craig has its own line of food that you have to eat, but it is conveniently delivered right to your house. I found their website to contain a wealth of information such as weight loss tips, recipes and inspirational weight loss articles. They also have a menu planner which is helpful when you are stuck deciding what to eat. If you decide not to join their weight loss meetings, you can sign up for a free eTools account. You can access it any time for weight loss support.

Weight Watchers. Another famous weight loss group. I love the little orange guy named Hungry on their commercials. There are over 10 different Weight Watchers weight loss groups in the Syracuse, NY area with various meeting times. If you go on the Weight Watchers website and type in your zip code, you can get the location nearest you. Meeting leaders, times of meetings and cost is also listed. Most locations will let you try a meeting for free. In case you would like your weight loss group in the comfort of your home, Weight Watchers offers an on line program.
