As a support group we encourage our members to be
healthy at any weight rather than slim at any cost. There is not much
fun attached to obesity, but laughter is great medicine and we
certainly believe you need a good dose fairly often. It is with great
joy that we can celebrate our very existence as part of the Healthy
Slimmers Fellowship Support Group.
Today we have fourteen
clubs in our fellowship. Our overall membership has declined, but we
are still a force that is strong in the slimming industry. Many of
our clubs have been established since the early 70’s. Our fellowship
is based on group therapy, which are people with a weight problem
getting together and frankly discussing it without fear of ridicule.
It is not a course of short duration, but a planned program dedicated
to helping the overweight without fads or crash diets. Our fellowship
offers love, friendship, camaraderie, support, understanding and most
of all a sense of belonging, a fantastic group to belong to.
