1. What types of food did you eat this week? Shrimp, turkey meatballs, chili, cheese, the insides of a chicken quesadilla, blackberries, watermelon, grilled veggies, salads and my favorite new find - Nonfat Greek style yogurt (20 grams of protein in a cup)! I can only eat 1/2 a cup at a time, it's very filling.

5. Have you had any WOW moments lately? Just reaching 160 pounds gone in less than 10 months is a WOW for me, but I have had many more people walk right past me this week, not realizing it was me, and then them being absolutely amazed when I spoke to them. It's been a great week.
*Fun bonus question:
Since it is Mother's Day weekend, do you have any plans? I'm having both sides the family over for Mother's Day brunch, I'm doing all the cooking, hubby will be doing the cleaning!
If you have no children, do you plan on having any? No children for me, I'm 45, soon to be 46 in a few weeks and that part of wanting is non longer for me, we're having too much fun with life ... selfish? Maybe, but that's the stage of life I'm in.
I do have a 26 year old stepson, and we're going to be Grandparents again in November! So I'll have a baby to hold and cuddle soon.

I was hoping to stay home and catch up on some housework and yard work. I do have children, but they are adults and live in other states. I just realized I only filled out 4 questions. I'm such a dork!
My latest WOW moment was picking up a pile of 14's my friend gave me that I wasn't trying because I'm not losing any numbers in weight. To my surprise over half of them fit! I pretty much skipped 16 and that was a nice surprise. I'm still trying to not get discouraged even though I can't get past this 200 mark. It will happen when its time, I suppose. I'm doing a women's challenge of walking for the next 8 weeks and I think that it will happen in this time period.
Mother's Day was nice. I got to spend it with my son, that's all that mattered! I do not plan on having any more children biologically. I think I'm done, especially since my son is 13 now, but if I get the inkling, I can always adopt!
