TOPS (take off pounds sensibly) As you know, there is no magic fix or pill for weight loss. But there is Magic in TOPS. M for motivation; A for action; G for being a go- getter; I for inspiration; C for commitment. TOPS Club, Inc. is the original weightloss support and wellness education organization. Founded 65 years ago, TOPS is the only nonprofit, noncommercial weight-loss organization of its kind. TOPS promotes successful weight management that combines support from others at weekly chapter meetings, healthy eating, regular exercise, and wellness information. Membership is affordable at just $28 per year plus $3 monthly chapter fees. We meet each Thursday at the South Clubhouse with weigh-ins starting at 9 am and meeting 10 -11 am.
