Getting To Know You - QUESTIONS??????
Hey everyone, it's that time again.
I hope everyone enjoys getting together for the clothing exchange this weekend. I won't be but will be in Michigan for a family reunion camping trip. Lord knows I need a break right now with 15 days left till the wedding. The closer we get to it, the more my stress level is gonna explode.
So here we go.... question time. How about something on reflection. From where you were to where you are now.....
1.When you were(or currently are) obese, what was the weirdest food combination and quanity that you most enjoyed?
2. The ugliest outfit you wore proudly in public and then realized later it made your obesity look worse?
3.Secret hidden talent or skill?
My Answers:
1.I went through this phase for about two almost three months when I was at my highest weight where I'd put mustard (spicey, honey, brown, etc...) on EVERYTHING including Snicker bars and ice cream. What the heck was I thinking? Now I can't stand even the smell of mustard let alone eating it.
2.Camo - enough said. Can you see my fat ass now???/ LOL LOL
3.I've never found a knot that I haven't been able to unknot yet!

1.When you were(or currently are) obese, what was the weirdest food combination and quanity that you most enjoyed?
This one is a hard one, hmm let me think.......I don't like ketchup very much, so I would eat Tarter sauce on my french fries.Yummo!
2. The ugliest outfit you wore proudly in public and then realized later it made your obesity look worse?
My swimsuit. ts was a cute swim dress with red roses at the top. But nothin' was hiding me under it!

1.When you were(or currently are) obese, what was the weirdest food combination and quanity that you most enjoyed?
Probably the weirdest food I ate and still eat is Ham and beans mixed with corn bread, cottage cheese and ketchup all mixed up. Before I could eat probably 2 plate fulls. Now I eat only what I am allowed about 3/4 cup full.
2. The ugliest outfit you wore proudly in public and then realized later it made your obesity look worse?
I had this skirt and shirt that matched that had a funky print on it. Now I look back and think that is something my grandma would wear and it made me look bigger then I was.
3.Secret hidden talent or skill?
I dont really have a hidden talent or skill. I guess if you want to count being a compassionate EMT.

1.When you were(or currently are) obese, what was the weirdest food combination and quanity that you most enjoyed? I USE TO LOVE WENDY'S FF DIPPED IN A CHOC FROSTY. YUMMY!
2. The ugliest outfit you wore proudly in public and then realized later it made your obesity look worse? DO YOU REMEMBER THE OUTFITS THAT THE SIDES FLAPPED OVER AND BUTTONED LIKE MC HAMMER PANTS (WHAT WAS I THINKING)
3.Secret hidden talent or skill? I CAN TYPE REALLY FAST
I remember this one outfit that I made. It was a pantsuit but it had the long top. I remember one time just wearing the top as a mini skirt~OH DEAR GOD WHAT WAS I THINKING? Obviously I wasn't thinking or I wouldn't have done that!!!! It is a wonder that the people who saw me didn't go running yelling to have someone put a sharp stick in their eyes!!!!!
Some people say that my hidden talent is that I can do some math and strict alphabetizing in my head.
Thanks so much for doing this Jo, it is so much fun to look back on things and to find new things out about everyone here. I so look forward to Wednesdays and your questions.
1. weird food combo's? Gosh,I use to eat it all so fast I didn't know what I was eating! I guess ice cream and potato chips for me.
2.Clothes- this size 26 hot pink floral capri pantsuit with a hot pink hat with flowers to Mall of America. My daughter & SIl were embarrassed to be seen with me. We still laugh about that outfit- and at that time I thought I was looking cute-NOT!!
3. I can talk like Donald Duck- quack quack! Hee~hee!

ENDURE,





2.) One of the ugliest outfits I wore was a black, short house dress with bright-colored flowers on the hem. I would wear that dress EVERYWHERE!!! And when it came time to finally throw it away, I made sure that my mother cut a pattern from it so she could make me another one just like it!
3.) I guess that would have to be the fact that I can play the piano, organ, drums, trumpet, flute, tuba, baritone, french horn, trombone, and the xylophone. I am a walking 1-WOMAN band! LOL I took piano lessons for 8+ years, and then played the trumpet, french horn, baritone, and the drums in the bad in highschool. Talk about not knowing one day from the next what I was going to play! Our director would have me switch up the instruments, depending on how many in that section were present that day! At least I was well-trained on it! LOL
You only have one life to live, but if lived right, it's the only one you need!
1.When you were(or currently are) obese, what was the weirdest food combination and quanity that you most enjoyed? Potato chips dipped in applesauce
2. The ugliest outfit you wore proudly in public and then realized later it made your obesity look worse? Tight jeans with leg warmers and high topped tennis shoes and a cropped t-shirt to boot! OMG...what was I thinking!!! Bad fashion choice even if it was the style!
3.Secret hidden talent or skill? Writing children's poems and stories! But don't tell my grandson!
1. I have to be truthful pizza with everything I ate. I had all the pizza places on speed dial. Pizza with the Chili was my fav and with any kind of bread a pizza sandwich.
2. I wore this beauitul dress/suit to my daughter's wedding. It was very long on me, I looked like a cream puff !!! My poor daughter.
3. I need 4 credits to have my BSW, I love assisting seniors. I have worked with the older population for years. I love seeing a 92 year old Line Dance, thats how I want to be when I grow up.
