It's HOOOOOTTTTT!!!!

Good morning...it's hot outside. And folks are taking Nelly seriously they are taking off ALL DA CLOTHES!!! I am begging them to put them back on.

I am trying my best to stay cool today. I am listening to Steve Harvey Freedom Friday...they are playing Michael Jackson, I feel like getting up and dancing. I got one move, two steps, side to side with an occasional dip. It is never played out. Old School dancing.

I went and did a little shopping last night. Glad to say that I am feeling more comfortable in my clothes. I am not "dieting", I am monitoring what I eat and it helps. I haven't eaten red meat or pork in about 7 years but I love bread and potatoes and occasionally have been known to go crazy on some junk food. My former carpooler used to bake and she always had something good. I would get to be the sampler and I wasn't turning anything down.

Oh NO!!! Brickhouse is on...man if I keep "monitoring" folks won't be able to stand me. I will never sit down. Give me a second gotta snap my fingers and sing along. 36-24-36 oh what a winning hand...I'm a brick house...I am stacked ain't holding nothing back...get it girl....

Okay I am back. I started keeping a food journal a few years ago to see what was triggering my weight gain and the sweets had it as well as the evil soda monster...I was a PEPSI drinker major. I had them in the car, in my bed room, in my desk drawer. And not the cans, I was drinking the big bottles...ice cold with the moisture beads running down the side....Ah...memories. Back to the journal. If you have never done it, it will help you find out what your major strengths and weaknesses are. I also noticed that I hadn't been drinking nearly enough water...the Pepsi was making me think I had enough fluid. Now I can't get enough of water and natural juices...watch that sugar intake though.

Tomorrow is Race For the Cure...I am looking forward to being amongst so many strong women, survivors and those that are in the battle. Those that are doing it in memory of a loved one. It is an honor to do this.

I am sure that tomorrow I will be trying to get my legs to function and may not be able to blog about the race but I will get to it Sunday. So if you read me...catch me on Sunday.

Smoochies...
