Welcome, S!  It's great to have you here.  Will you start a new post and let us know a bit more about you so that we can properly greet you?

 I'll play!

1.  When I was a kid I was Lee Ann. I dropped the Ann when I went to college.  Some call me Leelee and my son calls me Mama or Bella.

2.  This week I was a Giants fan!  In soccer I cheer for Argentina where my family is from.

3.  Fun sized candy bars were definitely a challenge this week.  Victory - size 12 Lee jeans!

4.  Hike on Saturday.  Play with a friend later in the day.  Sunday is a playdate with a friend.  Looking forward to it all.

Thanks for getting this going Cindy!

1. Waaayyy too many - people who've known me for a long time call me Becc or Becky, but people who've met me in the past 30 years (ouch - that means I'm old, doesn't it, that 30 years is not a long time? LOL!) know me as Randi (old college nickname that stuck).  To the early childhood team, I'm the psycho (and yeah, they wander into the office calling "hey, can the psycho fix the calendar again??" so I guess it counts as a nickname).

2. Absolutely!  Genetically, I'm South Side Irish, so my favorite teams are the White Sox and whoever plays the Cubs!  Let's Go, GoGo White Sox is actually one of my ring tones on my phone.  Then my maternal grandfather was an assistant coach on the Chicago Bears in the 1940's, so although they're like the worst boyfriend you ever had for letting you down, I have to keep taking them back.  And finally, my uncle was a Navy quarterback at Annapolis, so... Go Navy, Beat Army! (apologies to Gina and Moondancer)

3. Challenges - back to they gym, trying to get back into that habit building muscle pre-plastics with more strength training, and on Wednesday, my pouch decided that it no longer likes anything solid, even yogurt, pre-9:30 am.  Uggghhh.  Victories - I made it to the gym, hit that nice balance of doing just enough to feel it but not enough to REALLY feel it, and my body fat percentage is down to 25% (my initial goal was 26%, so I've won!!)

1.) Do you have any nicknames?
No - my name is short enough!
But my dad used to have 3 nicknames for me: "Foo Bunny" when he liked me (I used to go around singing the "little bunny foo foo" song enough to get this odd moniker) OR "Fang" when I wasn't being good.

2.) Do you follow any sports teams?
I'm a "die-hard" Redskins fan (which is in quotes because I almost never watch the games, but do look to see how they're doing regularly and get excited when I encounter others of my kind outside of DC).
But I actually follow the Yankees, and LOVE LOVE LOVE going to their games. (It was hard living in Boston...Here, it's easy to be a Red Sox fan. No one cares. But try to be a Yankees fan in Boston! SCARY...)

3.) Any challenges/victories this week?
I work/ed too much.
I dropped 3 lbs so far, and imagine I'll drop another one after tonight's ballet class. We'll see in the am when I weigh myself next.

4.) Weekend plans - work work work! I work on the weekends.
I'm really looking forward to church on Sunday - it'll be All Saints' Sunday, which is one of the most beautiful liturgies of the year.

4.) Weekend plans?

1.  Yup, Cyd, Reesie, Reese.

2.  I love all teams CHICAGO.  I'm a south sider, but I root for the Cubs more than I do the Sox.  Ppl hate that about me.  I root for DA BEARS and also the Colts, the Saints, the Redskins and anyone who beats the Packers in football.  In NBA I root for the DA BULLS, Boston, Miami and anyone who beats the Lakers. 

College, my alma mater, ILLINOIS ILLINI, all of the Big Ten sans Michigan and I really like the Crimson Tide for Football right now.  

I'm a former daddy's girl and my dad is a sports fiend!

3.  I'm doing well on my pre-op diet.  It's easy for me now!  I went to dinner with the family and kept on eating Chicken broth!

4.  It's my mom's bday, so celebrating with her!!!!  I'm her BIGGEST FAN!
