52 | SUN LAKES LIFESTYLES | JUNE 2023 | TOPS (Take Off Pounds Sensibly) Losing weight takes personal commitment and a decision to do things differently, which can be difficult to maintain on your own. The collective goal to lose weight is a powerful force. Drive and energy generated by TOPS groups of like-minded individuals can inspire and motivate you. Do something today that your future self will thank you for. TOPS is celebrating 75 years helping people to be healthy and lose weight. A key element that sets TOPS apart from other weight groups is our recognition. Celebrating our members' success is important whether they are losing or maintaining their weight. We recently honored our 2022 Chapter Royalty and Division Winners and they are: Peggy Andrews, Chapter Queen; Bernie Smith, Queen Runner-Up; Div. I 1st Place, Joyce Krueger; Div. II 1st Place, Sandy Smith; Div. III 1st Place, Suzy Hodgkinson, 2nd Place, Beverly Reneau; Div. IV 1st Place, Gayle Peters and 2nd Place, Lu Lujan. Congratulations to our Royalty and Division Winners. We are so proud of you! A big thank you goes out to Sandy Smith and Kati Williams for making this day very special for all our 2022 winners.
