Getting to know you ;)

1. Any wow moments this week? If so, what? 2. What's your guilty pleasure band that ppl would be surprised to find you listening to? 3. Have you noticed people treating you differently since you've lost weight? If so, how? 4. What is your food of the now? 5. What celebs are you currently lusting after? In other words, who better start looking into restraining orders?

1. Not that I can recall. 2. Right now I'm listening to The Weather Girls. That might raise a few eyebrows, but I doubt it. Ummm, probably The Backstreet Boys. Omg, did I just say that? 3. Yes! And I still have like 100 lbs to go, can't imagine how it'll be then. The other night, this guy hugged me for no apparent reason other than he just wanted to. I'd only met him once before and didn't even talk to him the first time I met him! People open doors more, actually look me in the face, etc. It's weird. 4. Wendy's southwest taco salad. NOM NOM NOM SO GOOD. 5. Jake Gyllenhaal and Russell Crowe. Be still my heart! *fans self*

I'll play!!! 1- I hit 139!!! 2- finger 11 or nickelback 3-not really- twice at WalMart a guy checked me out- that hasn't happened in ages... 4- 100 cal pack of Cheetos 5- Keanu- or Brad in Troy Fun- Thanks!! Holly

Fun! 1. Yes - I bought a size 12 skirt this weekend. That blows my mind. 2. Um, does Neil Diamond count? 3. A little - I think it's more my change in energy than weight loss per se. 4. Yogurt with some Grape Nuts in it. 5. None that I can think of. Kerry

Great fun Tara! I hope you do this more often. I wish I was this creative to think of these things! 1. Any wow moments this week? If so, what? Huge Wow for me. I hit 229 for a total loss of 138 so far. I also clothes shopped and found out that I can get into some pants that are 16's and that most of the 18's are loose. I wandered around in the normal sizes at Kohl's and Beall's even though I still feel like I don't fit in there (pun intended). 2. What's your guilty pleasure band that ppl would be surprised to find you listening to? Sorry, I listen exclusively to KLove. I think everyone wouldn't be surprised by that. 3. Have you noticed people treating you differently since you've lost weight? If so, how? Some people don't notice but others are awesome. I have several cousins that are so supportive and say funny things like, "I wondered who that was walking up to me" or " I didn't see you at first, since you are getting so skinny". My hubby is noticing men noticing me. I am noticiing that I never walk through a door and have to open it myself anymore. I will take it and smile nicely. 4. What is your food of the now? My food of the now is decaf coffee in all sorts of flavors. I hope that is okay. And the real food item that I can now eat and just love is a medium rare to rare steak....or sushi. Who would have thought I would eat those a few months ago. 5. What celebs are you currently lusting after? In other words, who better start looking into restraining orders? My lusting is more localized. Hopefully my hottie hubby won't take out a restraining order!

1. I have had two WOW moments this week. First, I got so excited when I fit into a pair of size 8 slacks (with room to spare) the other day. Then, yesterday I bought two pairs of Levis Capris...SIZE 6!!!! And, they have room, too!!! 2. It's funny that Kerry said Neil Diamond...I was thinking the same thing...or Harry Connick, Jr...OMG he is smokin' hot! I normally listen to A LOT of alternative, or stuff like Korn, System of a Down, Nine Inch Nails, lately Silversun Pickups...most people are shocked to know what I love to listen to. Also, I listen to lots of classical and modern jazz. 3. Yes, people treat me very differently now. But, I think that a lot of it has to do with increased confindence in myself...I demand eye contact and proper attention now. Of course, I am getting the "second-looks" a lot these days. 4. MorningStar Farms Veggies Bites, Broccoli Cheddar flavor...YUMMY!! Good protein, too. 5. None in particular...they all seem a little crazy to me...but if I had to choose, see #2...Harry seems harmless. Thanks, Tara...this was fun... ~Suz

1. Let's see, I had about 3 -4 different football parents stop me at my older sons game to tell me that they just realized that I was Kendall's Mom and that I have lost so much weight and look great. Most often I hear that I look younger...I like that one. 2. I really don't have any guilty pleasure bands...I listen to Switchfoot, Reliant K, Kutlass, Pillar...I like alternative Christian rock, but that wouldn't really surprise any one...LOL 3. Absolutely, people treat me a lot differently. My hubby is always on guard though. I get stares these days and he's not keen on that at all. He's a good man, but he'll take you out if you get too close to his wife...haha 4. My favorite food these days is steak..YUMMY! 5. I don't really care for any celebs, most are really creepy and have morals that don't align with mine. My hubby is quite the celeb in my book though and he's hotter than any Brad Pitt or Tim McGraw (who happen to be the ones I think are the cutest by the way)...If he got a restrianing order I'd be a little hurt though :-/

1. Putting on old winter clothes... and They are so big.. Thought I could get away with wearing some of my sweatshirts, boy was I wrong... I drowned in them. Funny how I dont see myself that much smaller. My mind still pay tricks on me. 2. Bon Jovi's new CD... Love it... Its so mellow. 3. YES people treat me different... When my son was in the hospital (where I work) I caught people really eyeing me up and down cause I was in regular clothes and not scrubs. WEIRD. Of course my husband is driving me nuts and wont keep his hands off of me. lol 4. My favorite food right now has got to be egg beaters... Love them! I add a little ham, onion and green pepper and cheese... YUMMY! 5. Celeb? Hmmmm... I don****ch a whole lot of TV... It use to be Richard Gere. This was fun! Thanks, Stacey
