Do you know what TOPS is???

I belong to a group called TOPS ( Take Off Pounds Sensibly) that meets once a week.  It a group of people that have a weight problem and share information about diets and exercise. Allot like I Village, expect that we meet in person and weigh in.  Nobody sees what you weigh and they don't tell anyone either.  It just makes you accountable for what you eat during the week. 


I joined March 3rd and as of today I lost 17 1/4 lbs.  For anyone that has a TOPS in their area they really would get allot out of going to a meeting.  Between I Village and Tops I feel so lucky, you can never get enough support from people who care.  TOPS has a charge Of $26.00 a year and 25 cents a meeting.  Not very expensive.   


I just wanted to share my experience about what a wonderful group this is, and how much it can help.


I'll keep posting my weight here,  and let you know how helpful you all are.  I feel in my heart that nothing is better then friends, on line or in person.  We all need each other!!

Hi, Joan!
Yes, I've heard of TOPS - I didn't realize it was so cheap!
I do Weight Watchers, only because there are a bunch of us at work who have done it for over a year now and having people who I see every day around me who go makes it harder for me to skip out on it.
WTG on losing over 17 pounds already - that's AMAZING! Keep it up & of course, we'd love for you to keep up here so we can cheer you along or help you up if you fall down *wink*
