Nifty list.. I think I will do one someday soon too. I love everything on here: and it's cool to feel like we get to know you a little better. (Ben and Jerrys cherry icecream!! Thank Goodness we don't have that here - I would eat that by the tons.. sounds yum!!)
Ah so glad you did it... These are so fun! If there ever is a 5'8 and under plus-sized antm, that shit is so ours... final two!

I have a lot in common with you! That was very interesting. I just posted it to my blog as well, well about me, haha!
So awesome you met your husband when you were six! You guys are one of those couples who breaks all the statistics. Way to go! Oh and I think it's awesome you're losing the weight before baby, b/c it'll be a lot easier on you, and less risk. And THAT is the reason I chose the band. B/c you can adjust it before, during and after the pregnancy. And people w/ gastric bypass who get preggers gain a TON of weight back, for some reason.
