  7. Thunderstorms are my favorite
  8. I hiked to the top of Half Dome in Yosemite when I was in 4th grade
  9. I’ve learned there is no quick fix to achieving a healthy weight other than dealing with the underlying core problem, which never has anything to do with food or weight
  10. Animals have and will always be a huge part of my life
  11. I am extremely competitive even if it’s just a game of cards
  12. I am overly accepting and nonjudgmental almost to a fault, but I am also one of the fiercest people you will ever encounter if I need to be and have no problem standing up for a minority
  13. I’ve owned golden retrievers my whole life and used to have pet rats
  14. I have a huge amount of wonderful acquaintances, but very few close friends
  15. When I post on my social media sites I usually write what I myself need at that moment. So, if I inspire you with what I write, know that it’s just as much for myself
  16. Safety In Numbers took me 4 years to fully complete and I currently have enough material to write a sequel
  17. If I had to pick a role model it would definitely be my younger sister, Kasey.
  18. Safety In Numbers was never meant to be a book, but after putting together all my journal entries over the years as a therapeutic process the concept and idea almost fell into my lap
  19. I smile and laugh… a lot
  20. I can’t whistle
  21. The hardest word in the vocabulary for me to say is, “no.”
  22. I’d rather be comfortable than dress up
  23. It’s hard for me to accept compliments and gifts. I’d much rather give.

  26. I am overly organized and a neat person
  27. hate cooking (sorry guys)
  28. I try not to have regrets, but tennis is a tough one. I was offered a full time scholarship to one of the top U.S. academies and turned it down… my eating disorder shortly followed. I think I’ll always love/hate tennis.
  29. I love routine and structure, but like to change my routine periodically
  30. I got to play mixed doubles with the Bryan Brothers in 2003!
  31. It often takes me a while to make a change, but once I set my mind to something I will often surpass others at a much faster rate.

  33. I love singing in my car, but I’m terrible at it!
