Hi Marie,
In the Bootheel of Missouri , it is quite warm. On yesterday we had temperature of 86 and today we are at 93 . My sisters in Staesboro, Ga tell me the same that it is hot.!!!! Didn't you guys have similiar conditonds lilke this last summer? So we will pray for you  to get some rain and the others along IL. to get some relief from the swellig tides. Doing good on the NS program and the challenge. Have a great day.

We've had 98 degree weather here in Scotts Valley, CA the last couple of days!  Whew!  But today is quite windy and cool, compared to yesterday's heat.  Luckily we will be able to put this nice hot weather to good use.  We will be going boating and camping this weekend! My husband is getting his knee replaced in July so we are happy that the hot weather is here already so we can enjoy some family outings before he's laid up! I did not take my dog for a walk yesterday evening because it was just too hot!!

Good morning, Marie and everyone else!  :-)

It's also been really hot here in Boston the past week.  Luckily today will be down to 85 and less humid, which will be a nice change from the oppressive heat of the last couple of days.  I, too, have been playing less with my dog outside because I've been concerned of him getting overheated...remember, doggies and other animals can easily get heatstroke, so in addition to getting in your own 8 glasses of water, don't forget to water the animals as well!!!

Doing well on the plan this week and looking forward to Friday's weigh-in.  I'm still only on track to lose another 1 lb. this week, but it's still progress and the road to healther eatin is getting a little easier each day!

Here's to lots of good eating choices and getting in your 8 glasses of water per day!  Cheers everyone!!!
