    Hi There!

    I am in Springfield, Missouri. We have about 20 members in our chapter and 5 of those are KOPS! I am on my way back to goal and regaining my KOPS status. I have about 15 pounds to go to get to goal. Man! that first 40 was nothing...this last bit is a bear! This place helps a lot. It helps me focus on journaling and sticking with my exercise program. If I look at my home page and see that I have had a good day clorie wise but not exercised....well....makes me get after it...LOL.

    PA-0908, Mechanicsburg, PA (Near Harrisburg). I have lost 65# since joining TOPS in August. The past few weeks have been rough. Flirting with a plateau,..I think it is a reaction to joining a gym and establishing a pretty regular cario routine (elliptical and recumbent bike right now). Psychologically, I think it's because I am approaching some significant numbers.

    Chapter-wise, we have 24 TOPS, 4 KOPS. A typical meeing for us is about 15. Our chapter had a net gain last year, but are making progress toward a net loss this year. Our leader is a former international King.

    TOPS seems to be working out pretty well for me so far! :)

    Wow...You have lost 65 lbs?? That is so awesome. I know how those plateau's are. Makes you want to smash those stupid scales but you know sometimes the body needs to kick back and readjust. Don't give up, it's just a matter of time before the numbers are once again your friend.

    I know what you mean, I recently found the site and have found keeping track of my food and exercise is so much easier and I think it's pretty cool that there is a TOPS group too!

    Six pounds from goal! That is so awesome. I can only imagine how good that feels. I hate to say it but from what I undersand the last 5 lbs are the worse. Hang in there....you can do it!
