1. Do you eat sugar? If so do you dump from it? Yes, but in limited quantities. I do not dump. 2. How often do you exercise? For how long? 4 to 5 times per week for 40-45 minutes each time. Usually on the elliptical trainer at the gym, but I've also done a water aerobics class, which was a lot of fun. 3. What is your favorite piece of jewlery? Why? I have a necklace with an "om" symbol and three crystals on a fine gold chain. It is my favorite because it was my "reward" for losing 100 pounds. Plus, it's far more delicate than anything I could wear before my surgery, so it makes me feel pretty! 4. What color are your eyes? Shape? Brown with green specks. As for the shape, well, they are shaped like eyes (it's early and the coffee hasn't kicked in yet and I can't find the right word!!!). 5. If you could be anywhere today, where would you be and what would you be doing? I would be in Hawaii hiking in Volcano National Park. 6. Do you have a motto, if so what is it? They will pry my rose-colored glasses from my cold, dead hands. 7. Are you an introvert or extrovert? Explain? Definite extrovert. I'm very social and love interacting with people. 8. Do you have children? If so how many? If not would you like to have any? Do you have a favorite? If so why? No children here, unless you count cats. I don't want children, never have, and probably never will. Whatever that thing is that makes women want children, I just don't have it. And I have no problem with that. I enjoy my nieces and nephews, plus the kids of my friends. But I'm happy and childless! That's my story - who's next? Kellie 396/232/165?

1. Do you eat sugar? If so do you dump from it? No, don't do sugar. I believe I dump. I've dumped from some things that have small added sugar so I don't "go there". 2. How often do you exercise? For how long? I exercise 4 times a week. I do 20 minutes of weights alternating upper and lower body followed by 1 hour on the treadmill. 3. What is your favorite piece of jewlery? Why? I have many favorites. They are favorites because they were given to me by my parents or they were my mothers before she passed away. I also have my grandmother's wedding/engagement ring and a pinkie ring that has two tiny diamonds from my other grandmother's engagement ring. 4. What color are your eyes? Shape? Hazel... sometimes green, sometimes brown. I guess almond. Deep set. 5. If you could be anywhere today, where would you be and what would you be doing? I would be on a beach somewhere relaxing. 6. Do you have a motto, if so what is it? I'm not an optimist or a pessimist... I'm a realist so get real. 7. Are you an introvert or extrovert? Explain? I was always an extrovert (social creature) and got my energy from being around others but the older I get the more introverted I am. 8. Do you have children? If so how many? If not would you like to have any? Do you have a favorite? If so why? Ewww, askings folks if they have a favorite child? Geez. LOL! I have no children unfortunately. I got married a bit late so looks like it won't happen and I'm not sure I'd want it to happen given our cir****tances... age, finances, housing (too small a condo for a baby) but most of all my husband has a serious medical condition (not related to his WLS) that we don't know when will rear it's ugly head and be an issue. Don't think I'd want to put a child through that. Kathy
