TOPS is a "weight loss" group. It's big on recognition and support. There's no diet because it's up to the individual to pick a method that works for them. I count carbs. Another is on a plant-based diet. Another is on Keto. Whatever works.
The support is the mentoring. We've been texting each other. I usually send cartoons about being fat. I intersperse the jokes with helpful nutritional hints, i.e., "low cal and low carb" snacks. High Protein breakfasts and/or other meals, to try.
We encourage one another when we haven't loss any weight and we celebrate when we do.
The recognition is regional and state. The region will have a workshop meeting. The state recognition can be formal, really dress up. There's usually a theme and people dress for the occasion. Those that have reached their goal weight are honored, as well as those that have kept their weight off.
Lastly, TOPS is one of the cheapest weight loss clubs. Also, their magazine has invaluable information, as well as their website. They're very well done. I bet there's a club near you and if not, there're online TOPS clubs.
