to keep in touch Hi Joe and Jessy-
Hopes this finds you both well. Due to circumstances beyond my TOPS chapter control, we did not have a weighin or meeting. We did have a short gathering at McDonalds of all places. Our weight recorder's husband passed away, and we had discuss what we were going to do for her. So sad. My TOPS chapter is small in number, only large on caring and friendship. Joe: Hope all is good with Anthony and you. Know you are both busy with school. Will you be a Senior in college this coming Fall Jow?
Jessy: I have been thinking about you, and hope you are feeling good. Your son will be arriving soon. Hope all goes well. A new baby is so special. Please let me know how all is. You will be a busy lady this summer.
I will e-mail more later.

I got to reading your post and thought that is how we are here, small in number but great in caring. I dunno I think a smaller group is sometimes best, it helps you form stronger relationships with each other and also it allows the chair or manager of the support group to be able to give people more individual attention. I think that is another reason I chose to go to the University I am attending for the smaller class sizes that don't make me feel so overwhelmed.
Yes it is great to boast you have over 100 members and growing for example but are you able to give each member the attention they deserve? That is why I think that I have not really been bummed out about never being able to get our membership over say 35 people. I think if we had too many people here on the board it would make it hard for me to keep up with everyone. The only way it would be possible is to break the membership up into sections and assign team leaders to report back to me on a regular basis. So I think I will be content with what we have here for the moment and pray that there will be those who see that we do care about each other here and that will be enough to draw the occasional straggler in.
Jessy, yup you sure are going to be busy this summer. Even more reason to eat healthy and get as much exercise as you can now so you can keep up with the new born and your little girl. That is my big motivation for taking good care of myself so that I can keep up with Anthony and the demands of his schedule.
Ok tummy is growling I gotta go put something in it. Have a great day folks.
