Happy Saturday, girls! :wave:

Pam, how was hubby's birthday celebration? How does he feel about turning 50? I'm turning 40 this year and it's not bothering me like I thought it might. Turning 30 was a whole 'nother story, though - very tough birthday. My husband never gets caught up in the number... don't know if that's just a guy thing or what.

Lisa, how was the play and your shopping trip? I live in SE Idaho. Where in Florida are you? My big brother is a teacher/scientist at the University of Miami. As far as green tea goes, I drink tons of the stuff. The jury's still out, I think, on whether or not it aids in weight loss, but it's loaded with antioxidants which is a good thing. I like it because it's a nice alternative to diet soda.

Susan and Melissa, hope your weekends away are going well.

Melissa, I hadn't heard about the breach at Target. Thanks for the heads up... I'm reasonably sure now that's how my card was compromised. :(

Well, it's over. I have officially hit Lifetime. As expected, I was terrified to get up in front of everyone (standing room only again this week). Despite my stage fright, though, I was actually able to say what I wanted to say. That almost never happens! I talked about how wonderful WW is for weight loss, but that I was most excited about what an awesome and effective tool it is for maintenance. Once I sat back down and my hands stopped shaking, I thought, "Wow, that was fun." :D

:congrat: Karynlee

I knew you could do it!

Karynlee, woo-hoo you did it!!! We knew you could.:carrot: :bravo:

The play was pretty good. Shopping was fun.

Pam, let us know how hubby did with his birthday. I think Karynlee is right--men just don't get excited about it. In fact, my husband sometimes looks forward to it because his age group changes at his running races and he has less competition.:) (Susan would know what that's about.)
