SALLISAW TOPS

Keep a food diary

By Billie Anthony 

Today we had a wonderful group of 13 ladies weigh in. Annette had our best weight loss of 1.6 pounds. Weigh to go Annette! We drew from the Two Bit Bowl and Jerry was the lucky lady to win the quarters for losing weight this past week. Four of our ladies got to sign the Loser’s Lotto contest. We had a new Surprise box today. The surprise box always gets the ladies curious as to what is in it. I gave out the award certificates that we received at the SAG (Southeast Awards Gathering). I was really proud of our members. TOPS 0737 had the greatest weight loss of 106.6 pounds last quarter. The theme was Sweating with the Oldies, so we dressed up for the costume contest. Our Lynda won first place and I won third place. The baskets that each chapter brought, our chapter won three of the baskets. We had certificates for best weight loss, most exercise, most food diaries kept and most miles walked. We had a lot of fun. The next SAG day will be hosted by Sallisaw TOPS 0737 on June 15. Our theme will be Space: The Last Frontier. We have several Trekkies in our chapter, including me.
