Hello ladies this is my first visit here and I am very happy to discover a TOPS group. I have been a member of TOPS in my area for a year and have lost 32 pounds. I'm not too happy about the slow rate of my loss but I'm not giving up. I just turned 44 on March 5th and would like to be down to my goal weight by my 45th birthday.

Well I hope that I have done everything correctly and this thread posts Nice to meet you all!

cheers, cj

Welcome to our forum!!

I am a long time member of our TOPs Chapter in upstate NY and have had a few ups and downs - but am proud that at least I've lost 10 and managed to keep that off for about 4 years now. I'm still plugging along towards my goal - but having hit the middle age metabolism slow down I'm satisfied with the slow and steady losses. I know when I don't weigh in for a while is when I tend to put it back on.

We hope you post here often and let us know more about you. If you want you can post some more information about yourself in the Bio "sticky" section- at the top part of this forum. Just copy the questions and start a new reply with your own answers.

Congratulations on your weight loss progress so far. That's quite an accomplishment!

Hi cj and
Congrats on losing 32 pounds. You're doing great. Don't get discouraged by the slow losses, it adds up over time. And sometimes slow losses stay off longer than quicker weight loss.

Have a good day.

Hi CJ,

Wow - You must be one busy woman with all of those kids and pets etc... Thanks for filling in the Bio. I only have 2 daughters (22 and 24), both out of the house right now, but one to be home from college for the summer soon.

I'm sitting here drinking my water and waiting for 4:30 when I can go home and see my hubby. (Maybe have a glass of wine too ). We have always wanted to go up to Nova Scotia - almost went on our Honeymoon many years ago, but ended up on Cape Cod. Maybe someday...

Ceejaye...My guess is you didn't put your weight on in a year and besides 32 lbs. is great. You've got a lot of years of life left do you just keep on trying and you'll make it. This is a great group of ladies here. I don't write that much because of time. But When I need help or incouragement, it's here. Welcome. Belle

Thay's Ziggy, he was our cat for about 10 years. He died last spring.

Hey, are you having a good week? I just got on the scales and it looks good. Hopefully it will stay that way until Monday night!

PS Got the computer up and running.

Hey ladies! Thanks so much for the warm welcome! You all seem to have such a great attitude! I'm so happy I found this site. Just last week in my tops meeting we were brainstorming about how to inspire each other to lose more and I said that we should try to look for support on the internet and I was right! yay!!!

Yep I am super busy and we are about to start breeding dogs so that will make me even busier! But I love my home and my family and I can wait to start the adventure with them.

We have always wanted to go up to Nova Scotia


Well come on over!! Now you have a friend here who can show you around! I live in the Annapolis Valley but I am originally from Cape Breton so I can give you the grand tour!

lol Actually when I met my husband 10 years ago, I gained 70 pounds in a year, so I blame it all on him But seriously that is the blunk of the weight that I want to lose and I have almost half of it gone, so I guess I can't complain too much.

Thanks again!!!
