Unhappy my chapter is folding

My chapter is folding because of lack of membership. I found that out last week. I decided to transfer to another chapter. The chapter I'm transferring to meets on Thursday morning. A friend of mine belongs to the chapter I'm transferring to. I'm staying with my current chapter until the end of the month.

Sorry to hear your chapter is folding. It happens some times. But I am very glad that you are wasting no time finding another chapter to go to. Somehow things always seem to work out for the best.

Good for you Ciecie for finding another chapter. I think in the summer that I wil transfer to my Mom's chapter, just for the summer since I don't work then. Right now I weigh in Tues nights and she weighs in Thurs mornings. In the summer, since I gets so busy and it stays light at night, I am likely to skip meetings at night to play with the kids. I will go back to my regular group in the fall. How many times a year are you allowed to change chapters?

Have a good rest of the week everyone.

LinLin, You shouldn't have to transfer. You should be able to do what our winter visitors do and take a travel chart while you are visiting other chapter. Only thing about that is you are suppose to keep your monthly dues up to date while you are attending other chapter. Then if you paticipate in that chapter you are suppose to pay monthly there. It can become confusing.

Linlin, you may want to look into getting a travel sheet instead of transferring. This is the first time I have transferred chapters.

Linlin, if you are going back to the chapter you are in now, do not transfer. Get a weight sheet from your weight recorder, write "travel chart" at the top of it, weigh in at your moms chapter and have that wt recorder sign it at the bottom along with the chapter number. When you return back to your regular chapter, give the travel chart to your weight recorder and she will record those weights on your permanent record. Very simple. Going to different chapters can be fun and see how things are done elsewhere. New and different ideas can be shared back and forth which can add life to chapters.

Ciecie, too bad your current is folding, but like Eleni said, sometimes its for the best and a stronger one can evolve.

Eleni, hope things are getting healthier for you. Is the crud still hanging around?

I'm having a good day with the eating. Feel in control.....hope it will last. I hate feeling like a yo-yo. SRD is 4 months away for me and I have to get back into my clothes. I always work them and what I need to wear, I can't fit into now. Very depressing at times.....but I have time, right??????

Have a good day all!!!!
