  Middleville TOPS 546
  The July 24 meeting
  opened with the secretary’s
  report and roll call. There
  are no fish in the fishbowl.
  Sue’s program was
  titled “The Weight Issue.
  Your Body at 70+.” When
  we were younger, staying
  lean was a common goal.
  As we age into our 70s, the
  way we think about weight
  needs to be reassessed.
  Obesity is a risk factor at
  any age, but how we think
  about our weight and how
  we control it needs to be
  nuanced. Dropping weight
  unintentionally may also
  lose muscle. A little extra
  weight as we age may be
  protective. We need to
  pay attention to any chang-
  es in our weight and body
  shape. We need to retain
  as much muscle as possi-
  ble in order to stay healthy.
  As we age, we will lose
  muscle and that can make
  us frailer. Four healthy
  steps we can start with are
  to start each day with pro-
  tein and have the same
  amount for lunch and din-
  ner, choose farm foods
  over factory foods, move
  at least 30 minutes a day
  and at least 150 minutes a
  week and cut down on
  simple carbs, especially
  sugar.
  The meeting ended with
  marching in place as the
  group recited the TOPS
  pledge.
  TOPS, a weight loss
  support group, meets every
  Monday at Lincoln
  Meadows in Middleville.
  Weigh-in is from 3:30 p.m.
  to 3:45 p.m., followed
  immediately by the meet-
  ing. Press the white buzzer
  for entry.
  Anyone with questions
  may call Virginia, 269-
  908-8036, or Maryellen,
  616-318-3545. The first
  meeting is free.
