And so it started! August 2006 - During a visit to an old friend - Guenter, who
was just on his way to TOPS #ON 5029, Scarborough. He had heard of the group's
summer weigh-in in the local paper ~ so I tagged along. What did I weigh, I wondered?
September 2006 ~ I joined my local community gym for a fitness/weight loss program.
January 2007 ~After being fairly serious into fitness for five months I didn't see much, or should I say ANY change in weight. So I called Guenther "Hey that group---I think it
could help me.
Tuesday, January 23, 2007 10:15 a.m.
With a weigh-in of 194, I signed up and signed my fat away. The group showed me
how to get serious, get motivated, and get dedicated. I committed myself and set a
goal based on a B.M.I, that when reached I would be at the upper healthy weigh for
my height. Keeping a weekly running record of my weigh was my commitment.
Especially helpful was the TOPSTRACKER and a weekly graph that I have maintained
to date. Up pounds, down pounds, down, even, all around the scales. But more
downs became my success. One pound lost is really two-- because I didn't gain one.
The whole group gave me support. I must mention Evelyn Windsor especially, our group's tireless cheerleader and TOPS booster. All these wonderful members make this organization work. Congratulations to my fellow KOPS and to every TOPS member.
