Wanda,
That is awesome that your chapter has only had 2 net gains. I am sure they will be taken out next week. Sounds like you have a great group.
Have fun today at the wedding. I know you will be very busy. I hope all goes well.
Nita,
Congrats on the turtle yesterday. You are doing great. Remember it is okay to turtle once in a while at least it isn't a gain and it means you worked for it during the week. You also have a very motivated group. That is great that the older members are getting motivated and are losing. Looks like we will have a lot of chapters losing this year. All you leaders are doing awesome. I know Eleni's Chapter is doing great as well.
As for me I didn't have a good week on plan. It has been so hot in my house that I haven't cared and lost sight and focus on my plan. I realized today that I was allowing the weather to determine what I would do. Just like I allow others to influence me. I have to stop doing that. I am my own person and I have to realize that it is up to me to do this no matter what. If I keep letting thing distract me from what I truly want I will never have what I want in this life.
I got a recumbant bike yesterday from my boss. He gave it to me. It is great. I rode 3 miles on it today. I am going to start using it daily. I have decided when our air gets fixed I am not going to set it to be really cool in here during the day. This way I am not apt to stay in the house where it is cooler. I will be outside because it is cooler out there like I was this week. The bike has wheels on the front of it so I can take it out on the back porch and ride it out there at night instead of being here in the house. I enjoyed reading my positve attitude book this morning while riding and the time went by very quickly for me. Plus I got motivated from reading and got my workout in. So I think this will work for me. My scale is up 2 lbs so I don't know what will happen at weigh in tomorrow but I will take what I get because I wasn't good all week. I started off good then went downhill fast. I am back on track today and I will be fine. The main thing is that I get this turned around asap so I don't fall farther behind.
We have a team pool party to go to today. I am going to try not eating at that and just have fun.
I got most of my laundry done last night while it was cool and I used the line so I wouldn't have to use the dryer.
Well I have to go get my shower and get ready for the party I will talk to you all later.
Have a great day and enjoy the summer sunshine.
Sherri
