We think of weight loss as being a physical manifestation like calories consumed versus calories burned. Recently, however, one company has deluged us with ads telling us that it's all in our heads, not what's on our plate. They say they have the answer for a price, of course. Last week, at our regular TOPS (Take Off Pounds Sensibly) meeting, we discussed this idea, and decided there is some merit to getting control of our thinking and habits if we want to be healthier or lose weight. We read about four personality types, and how each of us has one dominant type and some of the other types that make up our personality and behaviors. Group A is the mathematical or logical thinker who tends to be analytical when facing decisions. Group B is the organized thinker and planner, who is detail-oriented and organized. Group C are the emotional thinkers who thrive on the company of others and on group interaction. And finally, Group D are the risk takers, the imaginative group, who are drawn to new ideas and long- term thinking. Of course, while one group was thought to be more successful in making good eating choices, we looked at strategies for each group to face the challenges of a daily healthy lifestyle. Finally, after self-assessing, we found a way to put a plan into action, one that could fit all personality types. The Four Seasons Health Challenge is a success for many people, with some already at a five-pound loss after just two weeks. You can still join the weigh-in group or the step challenge. Call The Lodge or reserve a weigh-in space online. See your Daily Report for more information. TOPS is still meeting on Zoom at 9 am Tuesdays. We hope you will join us. We have eliminated our monthly $3 group fee.

The normal trail was not available so we trekked on the road around to the boat ramp. We plan to come again for spring flowers. ~ Lynette Simonson (951) 377-0392 (cell/text), lynette.simonson@gmail.com TAKE A HIKE CLUB Ladies Putters Group The LPG is happy to announce the 2020 Awards earned by our members during seasonal play.
