5 Questions...

1. Do you dye your hair?? Yes, I am not ready to be grey. 2. Do you plan on letting people know you've had surgery? Like in a restaurant if you want the kids portion would you explain why??? I don't carry a banner around but I am not secretive about it either. I have used my medical card a couple of times but in all honesty, who wants a cheeseburger, hot dog, or grilled cheese. Kid's menus are not WLS Friendly. Anyway, I am worth a full-price meal... even if I have to bring 2/3 of it home, I buy what I want! 3. What outfit comes to mind when you see yourself hitting goal and looking "HOT"? Don't really think of myself that way. I do have a dress that I bought to wear on a date with my now husband that NEVER fit (I was "going to get into it") that is really cute and still hanging in the Nordstrom bag... I guess that dress would be it for me. 4. Describe your idea of a "night out on the town" once you get your mobility back... Money is NO OBJECT I am quiet fuddy duddy... don't like clubs etc. However, we do go to live theater often as well as eat out a few times a week.... I honestly have not let my weight stop me from doing what I enjoy... I just squeeze my tight tail into the theater seats! 5. Is there someone in your life you know would benefit from WLS? Would you talk to them about it or not?? Yes, I have two brothers who would benefit greatly and neither are open to it... they were supportive of me but they said it was too drastic for them... they get to hear about the success of myself and my husband and perhaps some day they will do it... I have one brother who is desperately overweight and it is affecting his life, BAD... as my dad says, he can't do anything but go to work and eat. I am scared for him but he isn't at all open to WLS... tho I do let him know that it is the best decision that Doc Williams and I have made! Patti

Im a lil slow and late to answer these but here it goes anyway... 1)LOREAL is my BEST friend!! 2)No, I wouldnt mind anyone knowing but dont see the purpose of telling the waiters and waitresses. Im sure they will think Im either cheap date or maybe not to hungry... 3)Nice jeans, turtleneck, and jacket look maybe. And nice shoes of corse.. 4) Just maybe pack a overnight bag and just ride till we decide to stop and dine and listen to nice music and go strolling around a quaint town window shopping or BUY some things.Dont have to be fancy for me tohave good time. Just cant goa nd walk that far right now. So that itself would be great. 5)Not really. I cant think of anyone off hand. If I did, it would depend on what type of person they are. You dont approach some people about weight issues! They FREAK out on ya lol..

1. yeah, got tired of all the jokes about my grey temples. (it's not distinguished looking on us gals) LOL 2. sometimes I tell, sometimes not, depends on the situation. In a restaurant only if someone asks about my weird eating habbits. Never get the kids meal, too limited. Sometimes just appetizer or I bring home for a couple more meals. 3. Something tailored and low cut with strappy sandals. maybe something red???? 4. Getting totally glammed (see above) and going to the opera and then dinner and then maybe dancing. I've been doing nothing so long, that I have to cram everything in! 5. I have and will continue. Actually gave the number of my surgeon to a person in my nutrition class and she called. (barely knew her, but she asked) great questions! Steff

Hi there I know I am a little late but these questions looked fun so here's my answers! 1)ABSOLUTELY!! No grays yet, I just like to change colors occasionally 2)At the moment I don't plan to tell anyone but I might feel differently after I have had surgery. Of course my family and close friends already know. 3)I am with Kim...I have NEVER owned a "little black dress" so that will definitely be the first thing on my shopping list 4)Going out with my girlfriend Kim-she is skinny and gorgeous and always gets all the attention. I would love to see if some looks come my way 5)A lot of people in my life, but I don't feel right pushing my opinion on any of them. I figure let them see how it changes my life and then they will make the decision on their own!
