With no other business meeting was adjourned with our motto

IF IT IS TO BE IT IS UP TO ME.

It’s weight loss, done right.

For 75 years, TOPS Club has helped people take off, and keep off, the weight. We are all about doing things by the book – we have strong ties to the medical community, and believe in healthy living from the inside, out. It is a holistic approach to wellness. No fad diets. No gimmicks. No shortcuts. With us, it all comes down to accountability, unwavering support and top-tier resources.

Are you …

· Ready for a healthier lifestyle?

· Feeling ignored by your current program?

· Not getting the support that you need?

· Open to the idea of committing to yourself?

· Craving a stronger network of people who have similar goals as you?

If you answered “yes” to any of those questions, TOPS is ready for you. We were the first weight loss organization of this kind when we opened our “doors” in 1948. And we intend to stick around the longest. If you commit to us, we’ll commit to you.
