Questionnaire

I thought for fun I would post a questionnaire just to get to know some of you better.

1.  What was your highest weight, what do you weigh right now and what is your goal weight?

2.  What is your #1 motivation for losing weight?

3.  Have you always been overweight?

4.  When you want to give up what inspires you to keep going?

5.  What is the #1 thing you look forward to when you hit your goal weight?

6.  Do you have support on your weight loss journey?

7.  What is your favorite exercise?

8.  What is the most important thing you have learned on your weight loss journey?

9.  What is one thing you have given up that you miss the most?

10.  What is your strategy for losing weight?

You can answer all of the questions or any of them you want to.  I look forward to learning something new about each one of you.

Where are you from?

I got the idea for this post from a fellow blogger at http://alltheweigh2009.blogspot.com/.  Thanks so much and I hope you don't mind me borrowing your idea but I would love to know where all my blogging buddies are from.  So where is everyone from and what do you like or dislike about where you live?  If you don't want anyone knowing who you are or where you live you can leave an anonymous post if you like.

I live in Lincolnton, North Carolina.  I love living here most of the time because its a small town but sometimes that can also be annoying to because there is not much here to do.  I live one hour from the mountains and five hours from the beach so thats nice.  Other than that its just your typical small town, nothing exciting here.

Floriana at http://sugarlessdiet.blogspot.com/ tagged me and of course I'm up for a challenge so here it goes.  She asked the following 8 questions and here are my answers.

1.  If you were an animal, what would you be?
I would be a mule because I can be very stubborn and bullheaded.

2.  What is your favorite movie of all times?
I'm not sure that its my favorite of all times, I'm not even sure I have a favorite but I had never seen Casablanca before and my husband started watching it one night and I said I can't believe you are watching this stupid movie and about midway through he wanted to turn it off and go to bed and I so oh no you aren't I love this movie and I have to see what happens.

3.  How many diet books have you read?
Not that many maybe 3 or 4, but I've read alot online.

4.  What's your dream job?
My dream job would be a fashion photographer or maybe traveling the world taking pictures of beautiful places.

5.  What is your least favorite thing about yourself?
There are so many answers to that question.  Lets see my stomach, my thighs, my boobs, my frown lines, my arms....you name it I don't like it.

6.  What is your favorite clothing item?
I'm not really into fashion and I'm a stay at home mom so its not like I have to get dressed up to go to work so I really don't have a favorite clothing item......ask me when I'm skinny......lol

7.  What is your favorite sport?
Easy I only like one....football.....Favre fan all the way.

8.  If money was no object, what plastic surgery would you have if any and why?
Ok we will start at the top and go down.  First a face lift and botox in my frown lines, then liposuction under my chin.  Next I would have a boob job, not to get any bigger just to put what I have back where it should be.  Then a full body lift where they cut you all the way around and cut out a big section of skin then pull you back together and sew you up.  Maybe a butt lift or butt implant because when I lose weight I don't have a butt at all.  I would love to have my inner thighs done and my upper arms but I'm not sure its worth the giant scar you have after surgery.  After all that I would have liposuction done on any trouble areas and then I would have veneers put on my teeth and maybe even have some hair transplants because my hair is kind of thin on top or at least hair extensions.  As you can see I have thought alot about this....if only I could win the lottery.

My questions:

1.  If you could meet anyone in the world, who would it be?
2.  What is one thing that you love about yourself?
3.  If you were shipwrecked on an island and could only have one food to, eat what would it be?
4.  What is one accomplishment in your life you are most proud of?
5.  If someone gave you one wish what would it be?
6.  If you only had one week to live what would you do?
7.  Do you have a bucket list and what is number one on your list?
8.  What is your biggest regret?
