    Can post my bonus: my youngest son, 11, made me breakfast that was cereal and milk. He was so proud because he used my measuring cups- 1 cup of cereal and 1/2 cup milk. I did not realize that he was paying so much attention and is now aware of portion sizes. I was so proud!

    I will be walking my 5K with my mom this afternoon! Beautiful day for a walk!

    My bonus: I went to see my husbands grandmother and mother today! Very Happy to have such great In-law family since my own family is quite... lets say disfunctional and I cannot be in my mothers life and be myself!
    I think it especially sad since I saw a lot of friends here and on facebook who have lost there mothers due to tragic events like illness or accidents!


    Had a blast at the gym today, ran/walked a 5 km and did 25 km on bike! :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

    Happy mothers day!

    Not done with my day yet, but I did have something very special happen. My step-daughter and her husband have been trying to get pregnant for a very long time. I was beginning to think I'd never have another grandchild. I put my order in, but my kids were not listening, lol. Found out they are expecting the end of October. I'm so excited!

    I got to spend Mother's Day with my youngest daughter and my new grandchild. Sarah bought me flowers for the garden and the makings of a wonderful dinner which the husband is going to do on the bbq. If my eldest was at home it would be an absolutely perfect day. Happy Mothers Day all

    My bonus= I had to work a 12 hour shift today so my mothers day is just starting also. When I got home my 10 yr old daughter gave me a list of "Top 10 Reasons I Love My Mother" 1) She is very nice to me 2) She pays for the bills 3) She's around all the time 4) She takes care of me 5) She gives me things I need 6) She keeps me safe 7) She's sweet as honey 8) She looks as beautiful as a butterfly 9) She is as fun as a trampoline 10) She is as lovely as a flower. And yes the tears came out. It is nice to see how much your kids see what you do for them and how much you love them. She handed me this note with 2 yellow roses.

    I also did my 5 (actual 9) miles today at work. I am pooped!!!!

    Bonus team sacrimoni

    I woke to my grand baby girls arms wrapped tight around my neck then my other granddaughter came over to play and have an amazing breakfast made with love by papa. I still did all my workouts. Then went out to find the perfect flower pot for my Mom. Surprised her by showing up at her home instead of the normal phone call. It was very nice although she didn't know who I was at first. Why? Because I lost so much weight. Loved it.
    Also saw my girls too! wish we could have all gone to lunch or dinner but I will not allow it until I reach my goal weight. It was a beautiful day!
