| Introduction | My name is Angela and I decided on Sept. 28th, 2010 that I would make a life change. That change is to become healthier and learn to live without always depending on food. My starting weight: an astonishing 300 lbs! This blog is documenting my struggles as I learn to exercise, eat right, and most importantly, learn to love myself for who I am. I have set a weight loss goal of 50 lbs. in six months. I made a promise to leave nothing unsaid. I'll always be truthful in my posts by telling it like it is! Here is what is going on in my neck of the woods... |
| Interests | Reading, writing my blog, listening to music, playing my trumpet, watching movies and television, crocheting and knitting, being with family and friends, mainly just being myself. |
| Favorite Movies | My goodness....to list all of them in this one little box is nearly impossible. My absolute favorites are the older Hollywood movies in black and white and the old Technicolor movies. I also like comedies, thriller, scary, action, and I love Disney movies. |
| Favorite Music | Again, this box is not sufficient enough to name everything. I like everything. Except most of hip hop, rap, and certain types of newer country. I honestly think I was born in the wrong decade because I hardly ever listen to modern music. I also love any form of classical music....hey I am a band geek after all. |
| Favorite Books | Hmmm.....where to begin? Favorite female author is Jane Austen. Favorite male author is Edgar Alan Poe. I also love J. K. Rowling, and all of Charlaine Harris' books. I also love Philippa Gregory's historical fictions. I have almost read all of her 16th Century Tudor books. I also love, love, LOVE Linda Berdoll's continuation of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice with her books "Mr. Darcy Takes a Wife" and "Darcy and Elizabeth." I also have read several times Eat, Pray, Love by Elizabeth Gilbert. This book helped me to realize that I needed to make a change in my life. I also enjoy the classics such as Shakespeare, Louisa May Alcott, Mark Twain, Nathaniel Hawthore, Mary Shelley, and all the other ones they made you read in high school. I read at least one book a week and my ideal job in life would be a book critic. |
When you open your eyes underwater, do you ever worry that you'll drown?
I almost did once and the only thing I can recall from it was how things looked under the water. So now I don't hardly ever open them while underwater.
