"TOPS has been a positive influence on my lifestyle.”

“I’ve been overweight most of my life and have been teased by the other kids. I didn’t enjoy shopping or spending time with friends because of my size. My mom recalled that my grandmother had belonged to TOPS. I went online and joined a chapter where I found teens like myself with similar worries. The pounds started melting away. The kids at school noticed my new shape and my uplifting attitude. Three months after joining TOPS, I met a boy my age and we clicked almost instantly. TOPS has been a positive influence on my lifestyle. It has helped me feel confident about myself and helped me transform into the beautiful young woman I feel I’ve become. Thank you, TOPS!”
