If you will all please turn your heads to the right and take note of my weight loss scoreboard you will see that I lost no weight this week... none, nada, zippo, zilch, ack, NONE! My comfort food pangs simply got away from me and two days I didn't even walk. THE HEAT. It's the only explanation I have for staying in bed later in the morning and then not wanting to go outdoors. Pitiful, yes... I know.
Set an alarm clock you say? That's something we do only when we have to be somewhere early, like at the airport for a flight. Otherwise we are a 'no alarm clock' house. Usually dog toenails clicking across the tile floors of the kitchen are enough to rouse us. They are continuous until there is food in the dog bowl. But even Handsome, the laziest Rottweiler we have ever had, has been sleeping in late so, yes, I will blame it on the heat.
And for your delight today I have a hibiscus mosaic to ooh and aaah about. Let me hear you now.....
Have a Marvelous Monday!!
And, visit Mary over at Little Red House to view other gorgeous mosaics today.

OOOOOO!! AAAAHHHHHHH!!!
Oh, btw, do NOT take walks in the heat and humidity. People are being felled like trees all over the country from heat exhaustion.
If Baba Wawa approaches you and asks you for the type of twee you would be, DO NOT ANSWER.
Sorry for the second post, but you actually lost about 100 pounds this week. One more giant hug to you.
How pretty, lovely mosaic. I am hosting a CSN Giveaway and would love for you to stop by.
Envision us doing the wave :-)
And, I have not lost one pound yet. Thoroughly disgusted with my lack of willpower.
UGH>
Your mosiac is worthy of an ooh and an aah. Rejoice the sunshine cause it won't be long before we have that awful snow.
Beautiful mosaic! I love that shade of pinkish red (I am sure there is a proper name for it) that the flowers are sporting!
Oh very pretty! (Don't get discouraged about the weight loss thing. It happens to all of us.)
I'm the heaviest I've ever been in my life. My old Catholic high school is having a get together in Sept. for all ages. I would need to lose over 100 pounds to be the size I was in 1983! I'm trying too but I'm past the 40 mark and I swear looking at food makes me gain weight. But it also puffs up my face so I look in my 30's. That's kinda nice! :-)
Beautiful mosaic and I do blame it on the heat for me, too.
The weight will come off slowly and will stay off -- if the loss is gradual. You're doing all the right things!
Walking in the heat we had this past week would have been foolhardy and dangerous.
A loud oooh and an even louder aaah to you!
I am definitely "oooing" and "awwwwing". Beautiful!
I don't walk late in the day either. I start my walk at 6AM before the heat! Lately it has been humid which is odd for here but it has been tolerable.
And weight comes off slowly...so don't give up. It will happen! Keep up the good work!

I love the hibiscus mosaic. I use to have a few growing here but they didn't over winter well indoors so I don't have them this year.
Beautiful.
Hope you have a lovely day,
Susan
OK, no sympathy from me! I'm doing low carb eating and I gained over the weekend! I'm supposed to be swimming every day and it feels too hot even for that activity. It's Monday and, except for one load of wash, I'm spending the day as a slug and reading blogs. I will try to motivate myself and click on your sidebar to see what I can wrap in lettuce. Chocolate maybe.
Very pretty hibiscus mosaic - love the colour.
I am back on Weight Watchers and have only lost 4 pounds in 3 weeks - you must have starved yourself to lose that much in 1 week.
Good luck with your diet.
Beautiful mosaic. Love these flowers. Thanks for stopping by.

Lovely budding hibiscus! Thanks for dropping by my blog. We share the long Roanoke River in different states! Your blog is great and I love your humor!
Don't let the no weight loss get you down. It happens! You're doing great and sticking to it - you're awesome!
