To participate in the Weigh-In/Weigh-Out Challenge for Spring 2013, participants must complete the following steps:

Beginning Weigh-In
Complete the Beginning Weigh-In form between January 23 and February 22, 2013. Give the form directly to a Baylor Health Care staff member or fax it to Baylor Health Care at 214-820-8773. You may also obtain a confidential weigh-in by using Wellpower's scale with a printer. An HR team member will show you how to use the scale to obtain your printout. Attach the printout to the Weigh-In form and fax it to Baylor at the number shown on the form. We are located in Suite 200 of Expressway Tower.

If you are a faculty member or 10 month employee who is not on campus beginning in mid-May, email Wellpower for assistance.

Participants will earn 1 credit in the Wellpower program for either:

  • Making progress toward a healthy weight
  • Maintaining their weight within a 2 pound range (+/- 2 lbs)

Note: If you are pregnant or have a health condition that affects your weight, please note that on your form or email our health coach, Paige Shouse, at paige.shouse@baylorhealth.edu for information about participating in this challenge.

How to Obtain a Confidential Weigh-Out

For the Spring 2013 challenge, Wellpower will schedule several drop-in days on main campus and east campus to allow you to weigh-out using our scale. Tentative dates are as follows:

  • June 5 in Expressway Tower
  • June 11 & 12 on main campus

Exact locations and locations will be emailed to participants in May.

2. Weigh-Out with Your Own Medical Provider
