Re: Weight Watchers.....and other alternatives

[Guest guest]

Weight Watchers is a great program...If you are looking for an

alternative that is non profit, I recommend TOPS (Take off lbs

sensibly) for support - I was an active member about ten yrs ago and

did really well (for a few yrs)...Their format and support is

similar to WW in that they do weekly meetings with topics and weigh

ins, but it is non profit (you pay small amt for rental, activities,

awards, etc)...

The good thing is that they now have a division for WLS pts. When I

was a member, they would not recognize surgery weight loss in their

weight loss categories. Glad to see the times are changing.

You can find a location on their website:

All the best,

watching what you eat harder and maybe work out a day more a week.
