TOPS Chapter 319 El Dorado Springs (Take Off Pounds Sensibly) met in the Church of Christ Sanctuary on Thursday, June 29.

Angie had the program today. She led us on a walk around the parking lot. Angie is going to have the program the last Thursday of each month and will lead us in walks. Everyone is encouraged to bring walking shoes for those meetings. Regular exercise is one key to losing the weight and keeping it off.

Watch for members of TOPS Mo# 319 walking at the St. Jude’s Walk/Run in July.

Leader Robbie C opened the meeting and Kay S. led us in singing “It’s Time To Face The Scale”.

Robbie led us in Roll Call. Jan T was our best loser for the week with a loss of 6.8 lbs. Thirty members weighed in today. The chapter had a 19.4 loss this week.

It was noted July 6 is Nikki’s birthday. She has not been able to attend past few weeks but we want to send her Birthday Wishes.

Felicia will celebrate a wedding anniversary July 3 and Juda will have a wedding anniversary on July 4. Sue’s wedding anniversary is July 1.
