    Re: 5 Minutes of Fame - 2big4mysize!

    [QUOTE=Bren]ok.......... Let's get to the nitty gritty! Ut Oh

    Who is your hero? Jesus cause he knew what was coming and knew how painful it was going to be but endured it and allowed it to happen. With his power he could have just been a world ruler indulging his every fantasy or even just a very happy family man dying of old age, but didn't do that.

    What kind of music do you like? I don't like kinds, i like songs and musical pieces from every catagory in the record store

    What is the last good movie you saw? gosh it has been a while since I was in the theather March of the penguins

    What is your favorite TV show? NUMB3RS

    Your having a dinner party (Atkins friendly that is) and you can invite 6 people (they can be famous, dead, alive...WHATEVER) who would it be and why? well if you can make them tell the truth you know I'd love to get all the conspiracy folk like Oswald and such to answer but since yiou didn't set that criteria I will pass on those investigations at my dinner party.

    people? well that rules out God who y'all know I got a bazillion questions for.

    Dr Atkins cause I got a many questions he left unanwered like can we have pineapples since they are berries on rung 3 (Megs just cried cause this will now appear in the OWL forum LOL)
    Da Vinci cause he has great forward thinking science ideas and knowledge back then and man what else did he know.
    Jefferson and Madison cause i'd like to hear all their ideas on the US governemnt now as to what they invisioned it to be when created.
    Suleyman the magnificent I want to see what he thinks of our laws
    Mohamad to find out about his views on Musilm current events.
    Louis Pastuer beacuse of his theorictical and practial thinking what ideas he has on still uncured diseases and conditions


    Boxers or briefs? no wait, skip that one (hardy har har.....)

        well it has been bugging me as mispelled and not numbers seeing it in the paper with that odd letter until I realized it was a 3 and mispelled on purpose. see even us very bad spellers know when some words are wrong.

            thanks you don't know how frustrating it is when you know something is wrong week after week but it can't be cause they would have fixed it by now so it has to be right

              lol, thanks for the answers, 2big! I finally hunted down your before/afters. What a difference!


              Happy anniversary!

                OK I've looked and looked and I can't seem to find the flax pancake recipe. Is it separate from the pumpkin butter or together with it? I reallllllllllllly want to try those, could you point me in the right direction or list the recipes for me? Thanks so much!

                    Where did you get your incredible knowledge of human anatomy and the chemistry involved in this WOE and all that brainy medical stuff you know?

                    Why do you take such pains to answer SOOOO many of our questions?!?! Even the dumb ones or ones that have been asked a zillion times before?

                    If there were NO consequences to your actions, and no monetary cost attached, what would be your ideal day/vacation/splurge/dream?

                      OOOO, this is going to be fun.
                      1) We all had a day when we say "enough is enough" What was yours
                      2) Why Atkins? Had you done other diets....
                      3) When you found ADBB, it was really in its infancy. What encouraged you to join and post and become its superstar.
                      4) Most diet coke-aholics believe that its a diet drink, so what made you decide that it was a part of the problem and not a cure.

                        [QUOTE=Smallerizing]Where did you get your incredible knowledge of human anatomy and the chemistry involved in this WOE and all that brainy medical stuff you know? I absorbed it from text books, med papers, and teachers lecturing. I was conditioned from a very young age to learn the why behind stuff cause unlike most parents when i ask why my parents told me why and explained about stuff till i was satisfied like how did toaster make my sister fly across the room and then why electricity do that and then whyt was it inside the toaster to hurt us, and of course then I had to know how it got in the plug and in the wall and in the wires and so on. I think I was the only 3 yr old on the block who knew about gasoline engines and electric ones and why gas didn't fix the stopped washing machine but did the lawn mower. Naturally when I was old enough to read my parents gave me books on stuff I'd ask about and poof I was hooked on lfiding out and earning why for everything. i drove my science teachers nuts asking why things were how they were.
                        If a class sounded interesting even if it wasn't required and I had an open period i took it in both high school and college. I took lots of bio, chem, math, physics and engineering courses and got my money's worth in college. I think I was the only person taking a grad level wastewater treatment class and lab as a free elective. I loved school. I truely could go forever and be happy
                        So when i was going to start losing weight I researched everything about several plans and read all the lit I could get my hands on at the local lib and the University lib ask the med folk in the programs i volunteered with technical stuff too. If I can't have diet coke i want to know why, not just cause Dr Atkins said so. so naturally i had to check that out and all the science to back up the claims and studies.

                        Why do you take such pains to answer SOOOO many of our questions?!?! Even the dumb ones or ones that have been asked a zillion times before? LOL would you believe I love to leak my 2BIG brain?? nope? how about cause my parents raised me to share?
                        Paying it forward is how we can all repay the low carbers who helped us learn when we were newbies. Granted my 2 mentors before I discovered forums and free info would tell me where to research it and make me do it but I learned why and accepted the rules as factual based on human biochem which allows me to know the process.
                        before the board got culled i could link you to the answers but they got gone so I just answer again cause if i can get you interested in learning why you have to do it Dr Atkins way for it to work well you will learn it and do it, but if I say "because its the rule " you will do it only if you are happy with me and when you get mad at me you will do it wrong just to spite me.

                        If there were NO consequences to your actions, and no monetary cost attached, what would be your ideal day/vacation/splurge/dream? to either become a foster parent again or go back to school full time and just take anything I wanted to take during the school yr and spend my breaks bicycling cross country again camping out. Of course one of y'all would need to read posts to me and type answers for me during that trip

                          Congrats 2big. Rich sort of asked it but I will ask it this way. If there was one thing you could change on the WOE (not the book) what would it be and why?
