This One's For You Drazil !!!

Here you go Drazil...My Answers:


1. If you could be a weather forecast, what would you be and why?

 I agree with Dawn B, I would be the weather just AFTER a thunderstorm.  I love the smell & feel - -Like the Earth's been cleansed.

2. If you could be a crayon, what color would you be and why?

I would be Wild Strawberry for the color, and Caribbean Current for what it implies.

3. What is/was your biggest physical goal you want to do when you hit your goal weight?

To be in less pain and to be able to enjoy my life again.

4. If you could be any animal, what would it be and why?

I'm not a huge animal person, but I do love Teddy Bears, so I guess I would like to be a Baby Bear.

6. What’s your best advice for people in this weight loss journey?

Amen to what Dawn B said, journal everything you eat, don't beat yourself up if you make a mistake, the scale is not always your friend - but hang in there & keep doing what you're doing, start a blog & connect with others!

7. Have you ever shaved your whootananny? 

No, but the Nurse did at the Hospital when I delivered my daughter Christa (back then it was customary to do this).  It itched so much, that I swore I would NEVER do it again!!!

Hope this gives some perspective on me!!!
