TOPS Chapter 9319 El Dorado Springs met in The Hill Church, 1300 S. Summer St., El Dorado Springs on Thursday, Feb. 2, for their regular weigh-in and meeting.
Linda Hall, Co Leader, called the meeting to order.
Linda Hall led us in singing “Valentine’s Day Song”
We said our TOPS & KOPS Pledges
Linda Hall led us in roll call; Eleven members weighed in. We had 12 lb. gain and a 5.2 loss resulting in a net gain of 6.8 lbs. Margie was the week’s best loser with a loss of 1.8 lbs. Congratulations Margie. Many of our members are out with colds and flu. Hoping for a better week for everyone next week.
Linda H presented the January Awards today to the limited number of members attending. The month’s best loser was unable to be here so her award will be presented next week along with others. Those who were here and received awards were: Sue and Warren received back in black with perfect attendance for January. Marie received her 6-year accumulative KOPS Certificate and charm. She also earned a KOPS in Black award. This means she stayed in KOPS leeway all year. (Leeway is not going over 3 lbs. over goal or under seven pounds under goal.) This is very hard to do for an entire year. Congratulations Marie!
Winner of free dues was Terri D.
We have seven members who are within 20 pounds of their goal weight.
Rachael, Linda C, Sue, Margie, Judy B, Sheryl, & Judy D.
In January we had total losses of 45.2 loss and 29.0 gains resulting in a net loss of 16.2. That is starting the year off right!
Warren reported on the contest:
Jan is in 1st place; Tammie is 2nd and Warren 3rd.
Marble game: Jean won the right to draw but did not get the winning one.
