"I’m doing well and continue with these same eating habits."

“Quite some time ago, my daughter and I were members of TOPS. We both reluctantly quit when her work schedule changed and I didn’t want to go without her. We recently joined again. When I was five pounds from reaching my goal weight, I was diagnosed with cancer and hospitalized for a short time. From then on, my eating habits have changed drastically. I cut back on fatty foods and chocolate because they made me sick and began eating smaller, more frequent meals. This new habit later contributed to a healthier lifestyle. I’m doing well and continue with these same eating habits. Through the roughest moments and my weakest days, my family and friends have been there for me.”
