Good afternoon I’ve had surgery last Tuesday and I’m doing good. This morning was the first morning since surgery that I could fix my own breakfast. I swam to sleep a lot, but it could be drug related. I’ll be glad when I’m off the pain killers! I’m to the point now I think I can reduce how much I take. Our church people…

Good evening I check in here every 1-4 days. If no one posts, I don’t either. I have a surgery day on my neck. It’s less than 2 weeks, November 5, Election Day. We plan to vote sometime next week. Lately, I’ve been doing well on the scale at TOPS. Last week I was Loser of the Week. You just need to hang in there. Remember…

Good morning I don’t usually put a message in the mornings. But here I am! I did a weigh in at TOPS yesterday and then left, because I had a Doctor appointment in Missoula. I lost 1.4 pounds which really surprised me! I know how I ate over the weekend. I do well eating at restaurants because I know how and what to order.…

Summers can get busy especially toward the end of August. We went camping last weekend. It was up in the mountains and in tents. Who would dream that the temperatures would be in the 39s in the morning? This coming weekend (Labor Day weekend) we’ll be at church camp, but we’ll be in a cabin. It’ll probably be cold this…

Loser of the Week, with 1.4 pound loss.

Good evening, I had another gain, but only .2 pounds at TOPS this morning. It was one of those weeks that everyone also had a small gain. I had the smallest gain. Even the 2 KOPS had small gains but they were still within their leeway. I told everyone that we all have something to work on this week! I’m toying with having…

Good afternoon, I started this this morning, then was interrupted without saving it so it disappeared. Grrr! I lost .5 pounds last week at TOPS. I hope to at least match that this week. And tomorrow is TOPS again! It’s been hot here this week (in the high 90s) and it don’t cool down much at night. And it’s smoky! Yesterday…

Good evening This has been a really busy week! My birthday was on Tuesday and 3 of my cousins came here for a visit. We had a great time together. They were here for Tuesday and Wednesday. I know how it feels to gain. Last week I gained a pound and this week I turtled. Not what I planned! But I’m getting back on track this…

Good afternoon I said I would get back to the contests we have every week. Every one brings 3 quarters and a healthy food (apple, banana, carrots, etc.). The healthy food goes to the Loser of the Week. We have 3 containers for the quarters. One marked HaHa, another marked Gain and another called Fruit Basket. Haha Each…

Good afternoon I definitely do buy things that will cause me to over eat, including healthy food. Too much of a good thing is usually not good. I rarely buy grapes because I’ll eat one more and one more and one more until they are completely gone. But I really enjoy them when they are offered to me. We have 3 contests that…

Good afternoon I’m the leader of our chapter. Because our chapter is so small, I wear many hats. I also am assistant weight recorder. I also do other things, as needed. I was the Loser of the Week at TOPS this week with 1.1 pound loss. We also got a new member! We’ve always had some excuse of some kind. I once believed…

Good afternoon My goal for next SRD is to regain my KOPS status. I’m going in the right direction. 20 pounds to go. I will do it! The trash bag activity sounds good. Not much junk food in my home. I don’t bring it in or any healthy food (like grapes) that I can’t control and end up over eating. I rarely bake any goodies…

Hi Louise! Good to see you again! I never knew your name before. I use iPhone and have the same problem. MyFitnessPal is not apple friendly. I can’t even complain to tech support. I tried. I’ve been thinking about abandoning all social here. There is very few that respond here. I was checking daily and respond only a new…

I have iPhone. I can’t create a new thread. All I can do is respond to existing threads

Good evening! We just got back from SRD. It was all good. We had a fun time. I’ll show an activity we did at SRD. We’re doing it tomorrow at our chapter meeting. We’d probably more active here if notifications were sent out when someone posted. I would make that suggestion for tech support, but MyFitnessPal is not friendly…

I’m Bea and I’m the leader of our small chapter in western Montana. I’ve been in TOPS for 10 years now. I was KOPS, but lost it during Covid, then Christmas and Christmas and Christmas. Now I’m on the journey to get back to KOPS again. 21 pounds to go! I think if MyFitnessPal would send notices every time someone posted…

I’m in Montana. My name is Bea. I belong to TOPS (Take Off Pounds Sensibly) and I reached my goal and then COVID happened, then Christmas and Christmas and Christmas and another Christmas happened. I’m now on my way back to my goal. I have 20 pounds to get back to goal.

Good evening It’s beginning to look like only 2 of us will go to SRD. One of the gals has a husband in ICU and it’s not looking like he’ll last long. Our TOPS meeting is canceled for this week. No on is able to be there except me. I spent the day today mowing our lawn. Im almost done. I should be able to finish tomorrow.…

Good afternoon It’s actually morning but will be noon soon. I have a doctor appointment this afternoon, right after lunch. We’ll eat at Cracker Barrel. I usually hav grilled chicken tenders wit steamed broccoli and fresh fruit cup. There are good choices at Cracker Barrel! Out TOPS meeting was this morning. I thought I…

This is a couple of the bazaars that we did.

Good evening I check in here every day to every few days. There’s been no activity here so I haven’t been posting. I don’t know what happened to Connie. She dropped out of sight. I’ve been losing small amounts, but at least I’m losing. Our TOPS chapter still isn’t growing. I’m not sure what else to do. I advertise on…

Good afternoon You’re doing great! I think I’m back on track. The scale will tell the story tomorrow at TOPS. I’m not sure what happened to Connie. She’s been gone for her longest time since we started here. I see a surgeon for a consultation next eeek. I’m not sure what to expect. It’s for my neck. It’s for arthritis and…

Good afternoon Today, I’m catching up on things and taking it easy. At TOPS yesterday, I had a small gain. For the last 3 weeks, Dianna and I have had the exact same weight. We laughed about it. I called her a copycat. lol It’s weird! It’s snowing today. I’m ready for Spring!

We are so small that we don’t usually sing. We do pledges. We have a closing pledge. It’s common with a lot of TOPS chapters. It’s not official. We hold hands and say You take my hand and I’ll take yours. We’ll start out today A helping hand is what we need To help along the way. The road to goal is a challenging road We…

Good evening This week is turning out just as busy,at least through Wednesday. Today, I took Mary for a CT scan. Tomorrow, she’ll get an echocardiogram. Wednesday, Robert will see a pulmonologist for his lungs. Not much else going on.

Good afternoon It’s been a busy week! We were traveling on Monday home. Tuesday I took Mary to Missoula for her monthly shopping. Wednesday, TOPS. I had .5 gain. Thursday I took Mary for doctor appointment and dentist appointment. She had a filling and a tooth pulled. Friday was mostly resting and catching up on things.…

We mostly read articles from TOPS News. We did a game at Christmas time. Going through the alphabet, we took turns naming a healthy food…. Apple… Beets… cauliflower…, Dates and so on Then we did it again listing the not so healthy foods. … Apple Pie. … Baked Alaska ….Candy …. Donuts and so on. We had fun with it. Last…

Good evening We were at our son’s home celebrating a couple grandkids birthdays over the weekend. We had a fun time. The kids sure grow up fast! I’m not sure I could do 10 pushups, let alone 100. I know my toes and feet couldn’t handle it. Tomorrow morning I have TOPS, Considering I ate like a pig (or it felt like it) this…

Good evening Today was a quiet day at home. Fog moved in so it’s been really foggy. Tomorrow I go to TOPS. We’re the only TOPS chapter in our county. The closest other chapter is about 40 miles or further, depending on which direction I go. Missoula has 2 chapters.
