Congratulations to
UTAHMAMA aka WENDY for being our first Peep of the Week!
Congrats Wendy!
I had a chance to sit and talk with this Peep and here is what she had to say:
1. What motivates you on your journey to lose weight / get healthy / maintain, etc? What "diet" program are/were you following?
I lost a TON (over 130) of wt. a few years ago when did South Beach. It was soooo easy then! This time, maybe I've doomed my metabolism by not exercising and yo-yoing too much?
The prospect of a PEEP meet REALLY motivates me!
2. What would be your tip to the rest of the Peeps to help them on their journey? (i.e. not eating after 7 or writing things down, etc.)
I say only drink water (or Crystal Lite) and
excersice! (I need too listen to that!)and weigh daily so it doesn't ever get out of control!
3. When did you join the DIS? Do you remember your first post?
Back in July 06 we were planning out WDW vacation and stumbled upon it!
4. When did you join the Peeps? Why did you seek Peep support?
See post #1 ...because I need to be accountable to someone else or I quit too easy!
5. Tell us about your family. Any kids, spouses, pets?
More than one spouse??? LOL...
Awsome DH, DS who is almost 18 works at Arbys and is FUNNY! DS 8 is sensitive yet silly and loves scouting. DS 7 is my shy one. Shy but very loving. DD2 was a surprise and is always surprising us!
2 Golden Retriever Dogs, Clifford and Amber. 2 cats, Meep and Abby.
6. What do you do as a career? (yes, stay at home mom is a career)
The majority of my personal income is from my 3 daycare kids. I also sell Scentsy Candles which I LOVE. Before Norah was born, I did hair. I'd like to do aesthetics (facials, waxing, etc.) when she's bigger!
7. Has joining the Peeps changed you? How so?It has brought me together with fabulous friends who also struggle with losing weight...I LOVE all the peeps!!!
8. Name 3 things you like about yourself. (any 3 things must be positive)
1. My CURVES
2. My hair
3. my skin
9. What makes you laugh? Cry?
Everything (almost) makes me laugh! There is humor everywhere!!!! Even family gettogethers where there's drama, I find entertaining. It's ALL about your attitude!
Sad commercials and sad movies make me cry.
10. What are some of your favorite Disney things? (rides, resorts, movies, characters, etc.)
I love Jungle Cruise for it's nostalgia. I love EE for the new thrill. I like Tower of Terror and Roack'nRollercoaster. I like Boma and the Grand Tea at GF. I'd LOVE to stay at the POLY someday. I love all the movies but find it odd the classic cartoons all have missing mothers (or fathers). My favorite character is Miss Piggy but she's not fully disney. I like Pooh too because he's always rumbly in his tumbly! My favorite bad-guy is Ursula

Wendy,
Thank you for starting the DISappearing Peeps even if I didn't stumble upon it until a couple months after you started. I'm so grateful that it is here.

I love how you always make me laugh and see the positive side of things. And you always look so pretty in pictures!
