- Feb 259:00 AMMoving Into RetirementPlanning for retirement and choosing the right plan for you and your family can be overwhelming. There is a lot at stake, and it is important that you understand all of your options, as well as the laws and regulations governing the distribution of your benefits once you leave Texas A&M University.

- Feb 2510:00 AMCan You Be Healthy Without Losing Weight? The Truth About Metabolism & HealthIf you have ever felt frustrated by the scale or stuck in a cycle of dieting, restriction, and starting over every Monday, this session is for you. Join us for a five-session series presented by Texas A&M's Workplace Wellness Partner, Basic Balance Nutrition. Many people have been taught that weight loss equals health, yet that belief often leads to burnout, overeating, and feeling disconnected from your body. In this session, we will break down what health actually looks like beyond the number on the scale and why metabolism plays a much bigger role than weight alone. In this session, you will learn what signals to pay attention to besides weight, such as energy levels, digestion, and how your body feels day to day. Dive deeper into redefining health and learning how to support your body without restriction so progress feels sustainable instead of exhausting. These interactive and practical sessions are designed to fit seamlessly into daily life and are fully covered at no cost to participants.
