    Hi,

    I'm Elaine, and I just attended my very first TOPS meeting last night. It was a little different from the past weightloss groups I joined, but I really enjoyed it. There was such a friendly and loving atmosphere. The fact that it is a "support" team gave me the freedom of the pressure I found in other groups I'd been to. I find that accountability is important to me now, and that will help me to stay motivated to reach my goal.

    I love this my fitness pal program, but mostly, I love the scanner I use to track my foods from my Android. Just scan the bar code and it logs that food for you! Wow! such a great tool! All you have to do now, is be accountable, and have the positive support around you, like the TOPS group!
    .
    Thanks TOPS members for starting this board. I will come back to post daily and look forward to meeting you all. Take care, stay on track and have a Blessed Day!

    Welcome to the TOPS family! You are going to love your weekly meetings,weigh ins, and the new friends:) I 1st joined TOPS in 2000, became chapter "Angel" losing 74lbs(while in college). After graduating I had to leave my TOPS chapter due to relocating to a new state. Unfortunately with out the accountability and support I gained the weight back plus 60 more pounds. However, I now belong to a wonderful chapter and have lost 80lbs in 13 months;) I look forward to reaching my goal and becoming a KOPS in the next 18 months!!!

    I have been doing pretty good this first week since joining TOPS. I am now motivated to watch what I eat ALL day and make better choices.

    Good 4 u:) It's very doable, and the food diary on this site is great to keep you aware of what you're eating!! Keep up the FANTASTIC work and you will reach your goal!

    Thanks Dlovely. Which food plan are you following? I think it's great that members can follow whichever plan they want to do. What freedom! This is a very good website. My favorite feature is the scan bar on my Android. It makes logging so much easier.
