Yessssss!

So awesome- I just saw that I now have 200 followers (something I NEVER imagined would happen!). I puffy heart around a puffy heart all of my peeps who read and/or follow :) Super duper special loves to all of you!

And, just as I promised... here are my BOOBs 2011 Fun Facts!

1. How did you pick your blog name?  well, I really wanted to title it "Just Jen!" (remember the episode on the show Will and Grace when Jack was going to have his own show and call it "Just Jack!") anyway, someone else apparently liked that blog name and got to it before I did, I decided that since my blog is just about me and my journey that "It IS all about ME!" would be a good alternate. 
2. When did you start blogging?  I started blogging after finding Catherines blog, Amy's Blog (Sunkist and Cheese Amy) and a few other of our superstar bloggers. It was after I went to a seminar, but before I was banded.  
3. Theme of blog (weight loss, family, circus clowns, sci-fi, erotica, fly fishing, doll collecting, star wars, etc) my theme is anything and everything about ME!   
4. Did you go to BOOBs 2010?  yeppers! I had the best time- better than I ever could have imagined actually.
5. When were you banded?  I was banded in July of 2009, unfortunately I was unlucky and experienced a severe case of band erosion that was discovered just before my second year anniversary with my band. So, not my choice but medically necessary- my band was removed on June 5th 2011. I hope to have a sleeve by the end of next summer though.
6. How much have you lost?  my band changed my life and took me from 261 pounds to 191 - 70 pounds! 
7. What are you most looking forward to at BOOBs?  reconnecting with the ladies who were there last year, seeing my roomies and hanging out, meeting new boobs, laughing until my cheeks hurt, drinking, exploring, all of it!!
8. What/who do you hope to find/see/accomplish at BOOBs 2011?  all of what was stated above- oh, and not having a hangover on Friday, Saturday or Sunday (who am I kidding?)
9. Children? Pets? no kids by choice, but we do have lots of animals (see previous picture posts) 7 dogs, 5 cats, 1 pygmy goat, 1 mini donkey
10. Who is your roomie?  Maria (Dizney Diva), Amey (Donutt Butt) and Julie (Ms M)
11. What day do you arrive?  Thursday
12. What airport/flight/time?  Midway, noonish
13. What events are you signed up for?  drag show, comedy show, boobs social, dinner, and some excursions with Maria
14. Hobbies?  this summer my new hobby is open water swimming and biking- others include riding my dirtbike, reading (books and blogs), scrapbooking, drinking wine, cooking, bargain hunting (garage sales and thrift stores), spending time with my family and friends
15. Career?  School Counselor. Absolutely Love it! I'm also the ASB Advisor and very active in my Union.
16. Single? Married? In a relationship? Married to Dave, we just celebrated our 1 year anniversary, but we have been together for about 10 years all together
17. Your birthday month?  Beware the Ides of March! (March 15)
18. What do you want other BOOBs to know about you?  I don't think my blog really allows people to know me- I'm actually really fun to be around, I love to laugh and I'm a really easy going kind of person- I don't judge- most people think I'm really innocent, conservative and a "goody two shoes" ... ummm not so much!  I am really looking forward to meeting everyone in person!
