1-Do have a nick-name? OK spill....
Charlie (sometimes Chuck)- My mother would never allow me to have a boy's name so I didn't get re-named until she passed away when i was 15. Now only a few family members call my these names.
2-What is you next weight lose / health related goal.?
To be under 250 and have only size 18 in my closet.
3-Who is your favorite bit of beef cake/ eye candy?
Harrison Ford.....love that smile.  Grrrrr!  He stopped at the Freddy airport for fuel because Yarmouth (he has a home near there) was fogged in and my DH didn't call me!!! Who cares if it was like 2am??  They say he will make a complete recovery, but not for lack of trying on my part! LOL
4-What is your favorite activity?....besides that!! LOL
I like boating more than any other past time.
5-Is there something new you haven't shared with your OH friends?
DH and I bought 2 kayaks a month or so ago. Last weekend, I finally got mine in the river. One thing I didn't think about is that I have neuropathy in my legs and getting down on the floor is very difficult.  Well it makes getting a kayak a bit tricky........so I put the kayak in about 10 inches of water, thinking that my weight would ground it. WRONG   I got down so far and could only drop in....I should say roll in  AND roll I did- right out of the Kayak and into the Richibucto River!!!  I was quite the sight! I had to get my DH out of bed to help me get in.  I,m hoping getting slimmer will make this easier despite the neuropathy.

1- Do have a nick-name? OK spill....Mum or Muther (my oldest son spells it that way) oh and hubby calls me something that would be inappropriate in mixed company but only in private and never here.
2-What is you next weight lose / health related goal.? I want to weigh under 200 and I want to be able to run without hurting.
3-Who is your favorite bit of beef cake/ eye candy? My husband rocks my boat but in his absence Harrison Ford or Tom Sellek.
4-What is your favorite activity?....besides that!! LOL I love to sing and I sing Karaoke nearly every Saturday night at a friend's house.  I also knit and crochet and paint. - none of these things do me a bit of good since they are all sedentary.
5-Is there something new you haven't shared with your OH friends?
Someone I told about my surgery, who knew I wanted to keep it quiet and shared it with her in total confidence - betrayed my trust in her and shared my "secret" with some people and I don't know if I will ever really be able to forgive her. I thought I told only those people I could trust.  I was wrong.  I regret that very much. It has damaged a friendship I had treasured.  I am not sure how I will ever trust her again.

Nothing hurts like the betrayal of a friend. The friendship usually does not recover.
I have to fully concurr with your choice of eye candy.

Do have a nick-name? OK spill....

Well I was named Deborah- went by Debbie - my mom always called me Dezzie- by the time I got to University it had gone to Deb.... when I started working after university it went all the way back to Deborah.... now at 42 back to Deb... I also named my daughter a masculine name..... Baillie but spelt it feminine and her middle name is Noel because she a Christmas gift who came early on Dec 17/96- I go by my maiden name I never changed my name when I got married. So she always says she wishes I had hyphenated her last name so she is a lil bit of me and a lil bit of her dad! :)


What is you next weight loss / health related goal ?

I would like to get to my goal of 125 lbs - I am about 20lbs away - dont know if its possible I have to kick up my exercise this summer and consume more calories to kick start my metabolism again - my body has gone into maintenance mode and is happy at this weight . I have always wanted to kayak and that is what I got for mothers day - havent been out yet.



Who is your favorite bit of beef cake/ eye candy ?

I love Michael Buble - and also the IL DIVO boys that I got to see recently for my 3rd time in concert - Carlos is yummy ! lol- in movies/tv - kinda love Dr MacDreamy!  You know I always liked Kris Kristopherson and I think President Obama is good looking - saw Bill Clinton yesterday and still thinks he is a nice looking man! Hubby is a keeper too! I think it would have been easier to say who I dont think is a hotty! lol


What is your favorite activity?

Over the years I think I lost my zest for life as I became more depressed and disabled from my weight.... I am looking forward to rediscovering my passion for life and what makes me happy...... I do love going to auctions and yard sales in rural areas. I used to do a lot of crafts but kinda got away from that .... I am hoping my childhood passion of dancing will return cause its great exercise!


Is there something new you haven't shared with your OH friends?

When I first got out of University I was a travel agent ..... kinda a tie me over job til I became a loans officer in the bank- so I think that is where I developed my love for travel - planning wonderful trips for people taught me there was a huge world out there to see! I am going to Europe this summer for the first time - a lil scared of travelling so far and what my food choices friendly to RNY will be but we are doing a cruise for the first part of our trip so I should be ok.

hahahaha Coco Nombo!!!   Sleeping in Justin's bed would probably help me lose a few pounds!!!   hahaha...  ok ok, -Justin-, ok, stop... ooo...  Mike, yeah, Mike my husband is yummy!   hahaha

1- I have several nick-names:  Rakiki, Raketa, Rachy Baby, Ma Barbie, Babe, Rach...

2- My next goal is of course the actual recovery of the operation however the goal is our Florida trip next winter.  I wanna go shopping for a new wardrobe.  I also can't wait to feel "normal".   Just get the weight out of the way.

3-  Other than my hubby and Justin, I'm with you Pasty. I love Matthew McConaughey.  I also love Michael Bubble and pretty any funny guy.

4- Favorite activity is going to be Kayaking.   Can't wait.  I love being on the computer and researching for different things like the lapband.   I can't wait to say that I love going to the gym because I know I love it but right now, it hurts and I hate it.   I'm still in the zero stage of fitness so it's hard to start a program... but I remember how much I loved it!!!

5- Coco Nombo knows this but I spent 2 months in Africa in 99 and it changed my life.
