"It’s a support group, and they’re all rooting for you."

After checking out my first TOPS meeting, I thought, “Yeah, this is for me.” I became the Leader the very next year. TOPS works because the chapter becomes like family, and they’re all rooting for you to succeed. I always tell members, “As soon as you get off that scale, no matter if you lost or gained, decide to start anew and get back on track.”
