ROLL CALL 6/6 Are you toasty today?

About working out, I sweat horribly - it just drips off of me! I think that it's a great workout if I am sweating like a man! Forget glistening! Okay, Dixie, I agree with Janie, especially if you don't like underwire! Go with the sports bra - who will know anyway? Sometimes they cover up more than some of the halter tops out there!!! Now, I agree with Janie about the belly - you need a belly button ring. Why not show off that work of art??? I would get it tan and flaunt it, baby!!! Have fun and don't come hunting me down when you get arrested. Besides, how often do the police hang out on gravel roads????? Blessings, Andrea

Hello I'm quite toasty. I am a teacher for bible school this week. I have the kindergarteners and the 1st grade. At recreation time we went out and played with a parachute. It was fun, until we all fell over everybody's shoes. I got rid of my so-called friends. But kind of missing them, too. But I know they are users. I am just too nice of a person, and I'm scared other people will use me too. So I have kind of kept to myself. Goals: Get to the gym more often. Organize my apartment again Get more protein in. Gotta go Take Care Love Lisa Young

Lisa, Hi - so glad that you are involved with Bible School. What a rewarding thing to do. Hope that the little ones are good to you this week. Sorry to hear about your friends. I'm sure that you will meet some new ones. Church is a great place to form friendships. Are you using that gym membership? Hope that you are enjoying it. Be sure to eat right this week. God bless, Andrea

Morning All, Think the biggest goal is going to be pushing the water with this heat! Supper last night was cottage cheese/lettuce salad just something light. And of course was drinking lots of water all day. Had a lousy week but won't go into it here. Everyone have a good week. Hugs Carolyn

Carolyn, Howdy, girl. How are you? That certainly sounds like a good light dinner you had. I am into salads now, too. I have a turkey roast in the crock pot for dinner tonight - don't have to worry about too much that way, just veggies to go with it and maybe some mashed potatoes (instant). Water, water, water this week. Yep - I need it too. Certainly hope that things begin to look up for you. Have a great week. God bless, Andrea

Hi Andrea, everyone. Well I am still stuck no big surprise there, and seems I am able to handle sugar and chocolate. I believe I am in a downward spiral which I need to gain control NOW!!!! KIDS were out early yesterday and I'm bored already, and so starts the bickering. WELCOME TO SUMMER!!! We are planning to go to the pool today, I am hoping that walking to the pool and back every day will help plus being outside in the yard will help with the weight. Goals drink more eat less and just try to enjoy time with the boys. Happy summer everyone.

Hi Leslea, Well, here ya go dear, here's the kick in the pants you need. Will you please send one my way, also??? I know how very hard it is when you begin to feel out of control. Just start right now - get control again. You have come a long way and can do it. Stay away from those bad foods. Think that it was just a fluke that you handled those sugars and that the next time, you will be terribly ill. AND, don't let the kids drive you nuts! A walk to the pool everyday sounds good. How far of a walk is it? Are your kids old enough that you could swim laps? That's one exercise that I have always loved to do. Will have to try it again this year!! Well, have a great week and try not to get too bored!! God bless, Andrea

Hi all -- we've had a very busy weekend (family wedding and funeral) and this week is super busy also. I'm trying to find extra energy and need to make sure to get all my water/CL in. Have started water aerobics 3 x a week at 6:15 so need to get up extra early to get my cardio in before then. Looks like the alarm is getting moved up to 5.... Am going to try and stay away from carbs as that looks like my biggest problem right now. Everyone have a great week!!! Janie PS I'm loving the heat!! Only wish I was at the pool....

Hi Janie! Wow, enjoying the heat - can't say that I am there yet. However, I have noticed that the heat is not as bad on me as it used to be. I am able to still function where before I would just sit and not move because of the heat. Wow, cardio then water aerobics - that's a lot!! I love my workouts. Have to try to figure out what I am going to do this summer now that I'm almost out of school. Carbs, delicious carbs. I understand - that and peanut butter are my downfalls, too. You can do it! I thought that you were doing the South Beach thing. Well, hope you have a great, carb-controlled week!! God bless, Andrea
