The SBC!!
Ok, I will start the club. I think we are all in need of motivation to become those sexy beasts we know are inside wanting to come out! So, let's encourage each other!!! What have you done today for yourself?
Today was not a sexy day for me. Timo and Marco had surgery yesterday and today was spent trying to keep them happy. It was such a hard day for me. I did shower, but they were with me. No time for shaving anything!!! Tomorrow I WILL go to the gym, or else!!! It is what makes ME feel like a.... SEXY BEAST!!!!

I SOOOO need to join in. I went to Wendy's with DD tonight knowing that I just can't say no to junk food these days. I so want to lose all the weight I put on since DD was born but can't seem to stick to my plan.
Tomorrow is a new day and I CAN DO THIS.

Oooooh, I want to be in!! I did nothing to activate my membership today though - ponytail, baseball cap AND ate french fries.
Although my husband said, "Babe...I have really been checking you out lately." And I said, "Checking me out and thinking I look like 40 miles of bad road?" And the rest is not fit to print. So maybe there is some BEASTESS in me yet??!!

If you can carry me...You ARE a sexy beast...don't mess with the yoga momma I'm one of those women that when my DH picks me up, I don't get "swept off my feet", I yell, "Put me down before you hurt yourself!" Okay, I was good and ate some breakfast, but ate late, wasn't hungry at lunch time, so I missed the café being open and was stuck eating yogurt covered raisins, and chocolate covered peanuts for lunch with a Cherry Coke (my weakness, I shouldn't even be drinking it, it has gluten!) I was so disgusted at what the raisins and peanuts cost, I didn't eat many. Came home, was starving and we ate out. I had 1/2 a sweet potato which I shared with Ty. Was so used to ordering Mac and Cheese as my other side, I got it and realized I couldn't eat it, so I ate pork and brisket (they were actually very lean as gluttonous as they sound)...came home, and had some ice cream. Hair in a ponytail all day (I'm thinking about chopping it to solve that problem), no make-up. I will do mascara tomorrow if others will

No, beastess is not a word. And I have a degree in English, so I know better. Just being silly. I'm striving to be the "sexy and silly" beast.

Can I join too? 2 of my kids are sick, but I did shave my legs today! I didn't dry my hair and in our humidity~can you say fuzz ball?
My DH has been in Dallas all day but is finally on his way home. It's now 8:50 pm. I ate Honey Bunches of Oats for dinner. My DS and DD had Hot Pockets. Little DS had baby food and I am fixin' to go get big DD at her Volleyball game and she hasn't eaten yet. I have put on 15 pounds in the last 4 months because of my anti-depressants. I guess chunky and happy is better than skinny and miserable?!? I swore to myself that I would start working out when I got 3 of my kiddos in school. Hasn't happened. I think I am enjoying only having one rugrat all day so I drink coffee and read books. I think I am hopeless!

Well, I am feeling better today than I do most days. My husband (ahem...) built me up some last night.
 So today, I actually got up and put on make-up and FIXED MY HAIR! I even used a curling iron! And then I went for a walk tonight and went around the block 2 times! Go me!!!!
