What's on your menu, (Photo) Friday?
Good morning everyone! It's Friday, let's all do the "Weekend is here!" dance!! We have have had so many new people join the thread this week that I thought it might be fun to have an "Introduce Yourself" day!
So, Question of the Day: Who are you? Name? Age? Children (fur baby or human)? Geographic residence? Fun Fact? Add a photo for 100% enjoyment ;)
My name is Nikki, I'm 2 weeks shy of 37 years old. I have an awesome hubbie and two human children (Boy 10, Girl 9) and one amazing fur baby (Charlie, 3, lab/wheaton terrier mix). I live in Madison Wisconsin. My fun fact: I raced motorcycles (dirt bikes) when I was 5-7 years old and I played college field hockey. Here is a photo of me after a 6 mile run last weekend with one of my favorite protein powders.

Good morning! Good morning! Yeah, I'm seriously doing the weekend dance this week. It has been a rough one! Long weekends have a way of doing that to me though I guess.
So I'm Anny. I'm 32 and live in suburban Philly. I'm single with no babies of any kind - human or otherwise (anyone know any marriage-minded, eligible men in the Philly area 
?). I'm the executive directory of a public library and love it even though many days I still don't know what I'm doing - I just started in the Spring. I'm left handed and my power color is purple!

HI Ladies, so glad to be a part of the gang!
Im Jo, Live in Southern Virginia, I used to be in the Navy & traveled a lot, but now I miss the travel part (jealous of DC Girl!! ;-) as I just retired four years ago. Now I work a desk job and have a 5yr old son (love that part!) and DH who keep me busy. Oh I forgot im 46 now and just got around to having my son. The DH jokes I only did it because I sat still long enough :-). Fun fact, I used to play on the Marine Corp Rugby Team for 5 yrs 15 yrs ago (although even then I had weight issues, I played a position known as "Prop" which meant I was a big player who established a foundation for a group effort, but it was really fun time!) Anyways love that im on this WLS journey with you all!
B- Protein Coffee
L-Chicken Salad
S -Cheese babybell light
D- 3 oz pork chop
