What a wonderful day we had at TOPS Fall Rally in Puyallup on Saturday. Quite a few from our Graham Chapter attended for a magnificently motivational time together. Leader Lin Scanland (long red hair, black shirt) was given the Chapter Angel award for her tireless efforts with TOPS WA #1147 Graham.
Guest speaker Robert Sweetgall was amazing with his stories and activities to get the room pumped up and our heart rates going and he did it all with humor and fun activities. Robert said he was Forrest Gump before Gump existed. He made an 11,208 mile foot journey, walking through all 50 states in one year, averaging 31 miles per day. You can learn more about him on his website

Graham TOPS member, Beverly Satter, got in the spirit of the day with an energetic walk, hop, and dance around the room in one of the activities Robert had teams competing in.
Seeing the high percent of people who have achieved and maintained their goal weight and KOPS status over time was a huge inspiration to me.
Don't miss the opportunity to attend one of these events in the future. It was well worth my $9 investment and totally exceeded my expectations.
