i did go back to tops today. i ended up going back to the same group that i tried last week. i just couldn't muster the gumption to go through the initial introductory phase. and everyone was really nice. i also think if i want the group to be different maybe i am one to start the change! (forgive me for the small letters. i am feeding a baby) so we will see what happens! thanks

Congratulations and good for you.

That is the right attitude. You are there for yourself and you wil get out of it what you put into it.

Good luck this week.

Congratulations on your first step - joining! I'm sure that you will find the support of others will help a lot.

From the other side of the fence, (being a leader of a chapter) I want to tell you how great it is for the rest of the group when we get new members. Like fresh ideas, great motivation, and maybe a reminder of the basics of weight loss as we explain to new members what we're all about. You may have to move slowly in making changes if the group has been around for awhile... some people really get entrenched in the rut called "but this is the way we've always done it."

The support on this page is great as well. You will enjoy getting to know everyone and we will enjoy getting to know you as well. Welcome!
