I tried to avoid these questions yesterday for a few reasons. Ok, really I was avoiding question 5. I didn't want to answer any if I didn't answer that one but today I'm thinking, I am about to make a huge step this week getting the band and part of this whole blogging experience is to be honest with myself and everyone so here goes! God. Help. Me.
1. If you could be a weather forecast, what would you be and why? I'm not really sure what its called but you know when the eye of the hurricane goes over you, its gorgeous and sunny? Then, it passes and you get the backend of the hurricane all stormy....yeah, that's me!
2. If you could be a crayon, what color would you be and why? Royal blue. I just love this color and its so bright and I feel good when I wear it.
3. What is/was your biggest physical goal you want to do when you hit your goal weight? I want to be comfortable riding on the back of my DH's motorcycle, I want to enter a 5k race and someday do a 1/2 marathon.
4. If you could be any animal, what would it be and why? I'd want to be a panther. They are so sleek and graceful. Everything I am not at the moment!
5. Just because I’m new to some followers and I’m curious – let’s do a put it out there in black and white stat question.
What was your highest weight? 234, 6 years ago
What is your weight now? 208
What is your goal weight if you have one? 145 -155
What is your goal size if you have one? 8 - 10
What diet/program/tool do you follow/have if any? I've always followed weight watchers and Atkins and beginning this week, I will have the added help of the Lap-Band.
How did you lose the weight current to today? WW and Adkins and lots of exercise
6. What’s your best advice for people in this weight loss journey? Don't give up. Take it one day at a time....I am learning this myself. There is a saying "if you always do what you've always done, you'll always get what you always got". I am so open to change right now and I feel it in my heart that this time, I will succeed with my weightloss battle!
7. Have you ever shaved your whootananny? Yes
Thank you Drazil for putting these questions out there. Peer pressure is alive and well in blogland! I suppose its not a bad thing! :)

OH see - that wasn't too hard was it? Your answers are sooo good. Love the motorcycle one...I'm stealing that one too. Oh and panther is good too. And LOVE the pimp picture - that is so me. I should make it my avatar. Good job!
It's nice to see someone who has about the same amount of weight to lose as me! I'm at 207 as of this morning and hope to get to 145. That is my goal anyway!
You have some great goals!! A 5K and half marathon would be great! I'd like to do a mini triathlon someday.
Good luck next week!! You will do great!
Thanks for following my blog, I am now following you too!
So glad to hear that your Surgery is almost here! I am so excited for you!
As for the Biotin pills, I bought mine at GNC too and I don't have any problems taking them whole!
For the hair loss, I also bought Zinc tablets. They say that adding Zinc helps with hair loss. And, I also shampoo my hair with the Nioxin treatment. It is expensive, but well worth it!!
Hey Jacqui....
Creeping...creeping (no, thats not me being creep(y)..) its you getting to surgery date!
Great answers. And you're starting weight is only 208? Far out - you are already well ahead in the ball game lol. Most of us started WAY above that. Have a nifty weekend. xx
Good luck on your band! I'll be following your success!! ;-)
I totally have a room here, waiting for you. Come on over.. whooooo xxx (would LOVE to meet you too, in case you hadn't guessed!!!)Though if it's a bucket list - I guess you will need room for your zimmer frame too! lol
Just thinking of you today and wishing you well on your trip tomorrow! Scooching down on the loser's bench for you!! Keep us posted when you can!
All the best of luck-- you'll do great, deep breath, ready set go!!
Congrats in advance for taking this wonderful step... be safe and healthy and can't wait to hear from you again!
