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. I used to be a member of TOPS actually. I really liked it but the timing just didn't work for me since you could only go one day a week. I joined Weight Watchers (more pricey but more meeting times during the week). I never did understand why TOPS did not let you weigh in at different chapters since you are not necessarily available the same night every week (especially me being a student). Congratulations on your 17 pound loss. Keep up the great work. Hope you post often :)

You have done an awesome job with it.
I wish you continued success.

Hi Sunset,


Just wanted to let you know that now you can weigh in at other towns.

I have friends that are still members and you can't weigh in in other chapters in Canada. Hopefully they will bring it here soon. Thanks for the info.
