NEW YORK Two agencies have dropped out of the race for the Weight Watchers International account, shortening the list of semifinalists to five, sources said.

Both Interpublic Group’s Foote Cone & Belding in New York and Havas’ Arnold in New York and Boston are no longer pitching the business, sources said.

A heavy workload prompted Arnold’s departure, sources said. It is unclear why FCB will not proceed.

Agency officials either could not be reached or declined comment.
