1.) Are you in introvert or and extrovert? ~I think I am an introvert. I get very nervous and anxious when I have be in a group of meet new people. I talk obessively and usually make a fool of myself because I'm so nervous.~ 2.) What is the most important thing you feel you've passed on to your children or what do you think the most important thing was that was passed on to you? ~Honesty~ My dad must have told us kids a thousand times I can forgive anything but I can't forgive a lie.~ 3.) Do you see the glass as half empty or half full? ~This is so funny because my sister and I get into it all the time about the "glass" I TRY to say it's half full, I want to give everyone the benefit of the doubt and believe that most people deep down are good (even though given the choice I'd rather be way out in the country AWAY from people) I always ask my sister, why are you so pessimistic and she says Jamie I'm not pessimistic I'm REALISTIC..~ 4.) If you could pass on a message to other people suffering from obesity what would it be? ~You don't have to suffer alone there are people out there that truely understand what your going through, who have walked a mile with your sore knees and aching back and you CAN find comfort and acceptance!~ 5.) If asked to write a book about your weight loss journey, would you? Yes, I think I would. I've always been interested in writing. I have a few children's stories lying around but just don't know how to get started. I think it would be exciting to walk into a bookstore and see my name in print. I would like to think my book might make a difference in someone's life.

Im new to this board..so allow me to introduce myself. Im LaShawn aka Pretty Plum...my BMI is currently over 60..but Im working to get it down so that I can get the the Lapband. Now for the fun part...the questions 1. Im an extrovert..Im very outgoing & fun loving. 2. The most important thing that I pray I've passed on to my 13yr old is to always pursue your dreams. No matter how far they may seem. My daughter thats I am very much a go-getter. 3. I see the glass as 1/2 empty most the of the time. I'm very much a realist unless I force myself into La-La land...which usually has to do with a man coming me and whisking me away somewhere Im working on having a more positive outlook on things though. 4. If I could pass on a message to other people suffering with obesity it would be You are special, you are worthy..and whatever attempts you use to lose the weight are worth the battle. Just never give up...cuz life is worth living. 5. If asked to write a book about my weight loss journey..I would say YES in a heartbeat. I have always wanted to be a motivational speaker..and besides I would love the attention..cuz Im such the ham
