I am supposed to answer 4 questions that he’s given me. Then I create 4 new questions and tag 4 other bloggers. I must not have read this part well because I answered the same ones that he answered and the ones that he gave me. Oh well...
Before we start I have to also say that I have been slacking on my blogging, but NOT on my weight loss journey. I will be posting pictures, new posts, etc this weekend and am hoping to get back on the blogging track.
The Questions
1. Name the furthest place you’ve ever been from home.
The most amazing, wonderful and beautiful place on Earth. None other than Italy! I spent 6 months living in Florence, Italy and it was the best time of my life. I have been trying to save money to go back there some time in the near future. I can almost taste the delicious wine and gelato now... :)
2.What is the most physically demanding thing you’ve ever done?
Hike through Cinque Terre in Italy. You hike up and down the coast of 5 beautiful cities along the Mediterranean sea. It was quite challenging as every time you climb up the giant, steep hills you are reminded that you have to do it again and again until you get to the final city. It was breathtakingly beautiful and an extremely good workout.
3. How long have you been blogging and what was your initial reason for starting?
I have been blogging for almost a month and I started because I wanted to keep a journal of my life and weight loss journey and I am much faster at typing than I am at writing. I also wanted to meet other people who were trying to lose weigth and change their lives to gather inspiration from them along the way. I think that the blogging community is an amazing resource and something that has really helped me along this journey.
4. What is the best thing that’s happened to you in 2010?
Deciding to take back control of my life, weight and general health and well-being. I have never had more energy or drive in life than I have now and I am bound and determined to be successful long-term this time.
5. What is the most embarrassing mp3/song you own but absolutely love?
Too many to choose just one. I have a lot of music in my collection and there is a substantial amount of music that could be considered embarassing. I actually have a playlist on i-tunes called cheestastic, which contains songs that would probably fit the embarassing bill. I am going to select Wilson Phillips, "Hold on." and Black Eyed Peas, "My Humps."
6. If you could go anywhere in the world where would it be and be and why?
Honestly, back to Italy. I am obsessed and in love with everything about this beautiful country. If I had to pick somewhere that I have never been I would say Thailand.
7. What's the best thing about writing a blog?
Looking back and seeing your progress and the people who let you know that something you have said or done is inspirational to them.
8. What's the funniest joke you know?
I am not really a big fan of pre-fabricated jokes. I am more of the quick wit and sarcasm on the fly. Tag... You're It
