Dear Diary,

I have two words for you: Hula Hoop! Believe it or not, that is one fantastic workout. Really works your middle...which is the place most of us like to concentrate, anyway. And it's so much fun! My mom had heard some story on this lady that lost somewhere around 50 pounds just adding some daily hula hoop to her regimen. That's impressive! So when I don't have time to leave the house for exercise or it's just too hot outside, Hula Hoop! It seems like there used to be some catchy Saturday-morning ad jingle for the hula hoop but if I was around for it, I've forgotten it. Either way, I want to sing it this moment. It does take some time to relearn the art, but I have found that the slower you twist, the easier the hoop spins.

Meanwhile, I have been gearing up for a conference I'm attending next week. This is another one of those "meet-up" opportunities. I'm not expecting much, but I can't discount it's potential, either. We'll see...

I'm finding the biggest problem I'm having with staying on course with the diet is the water intake. I forgot to be drinking water all day yesterday so I tried to make up for it right before I went to bed. Not the best idea. :)

Anyway, it's been a few days since I've heard from "Dave" but that's probably ok. I've probably mentioned that I don't see that being the great romance of my life. And the "radar" guy has also been unusually silent. Typically he'll email back right away, but I know he's had a busy summer. The other "crush" is more of an out-of-sight, out-of-mind situation, so that has been better as well.

At least until I see what tomorrow holds...
