BY JOAN KINGSBURY
Taking off those holiday
pounds? That’s what most
people are trying to do
now that the holiday
season is over. This week,
Mollie Phillips, group
leader of TOPS (Taking
Off Pounds Sensibly),
tells us how her
organization can help us
to lose those extra pounds.
TOPS is a non-profit
weight loss organization.
The local TOPS chapter
was organized Dec. 2, has
33 paid members and al-
ready has ‘a total weight
loss of 1153 pounds. The
group meets Thursday
between 7 and 7:30. The
meeting runs from 7:30 to
8:15 or 8:30.
Members set their own
diet and work toward a
goal set by their doctor.
"TOPS offers group sup-
port, education on why the
individual becomes -over-
weight, and on how harm-
ful weight fluctuation can
be controlled. Those in-
terested are able to attend
their first meeting free of
charge. If an individual
decides to join, a yearly
fee of $12 is paid to the
national headquarters.
Local chapters also set
used for the program.
Mollie became inter-
ested in TOPS through her
sister who has been a
member for about three
years. When traveling
into town for a weekly
meeting became difficult,
Mollie. and her sister
decided to open a Dallas
chapter. They hope to
feature speakers on
various subjects to make
the meetings more in-
formative.
A resident of Dallas,
Mollie, and her husband,
Frank, are the parents of
two children Mamie, 4
and Matthew, 2.
with two recipes, Hearty
Chicken Casserole and
Dutch Apple Cake. These
were taken from a book
“A Nutrition Monograph
for Taking Off Pounds
Sensibly”’ by Ronald K.
Kalkhoff, M.D.
