Very cool thread!!

Name: Cris Anderson

Ht: 5'7

Starting Weight: 215

Current Weight: 183

Status: Single

Hair: Dark brown

Eyes: Kind of a dark hazel...they usually look brown though, till you get close.

Job: Ha! Part time mechanic for now (don't laugh!)...I make more money bladesmithing though.

Why I chose my screen name: Its my name and my favorite number...and 27 is also my birth date

My Style: Ahh...style. What you see is what you get...from dirty work clothes to relaxed shorts or jeans and a t-shirt. I can dress up, but mostly I like comfortable clothes of nice quality.

Hobbies: Bladesmithing, fast (and I mean 9-10 second 1/4 mile) daily drivable Mustangs, reading, writing, art (graphic and pen/pencil)...lots of stuff I guess.

Music: Love rock music (modern, metal, some pop, 80's/90's/classic), everything from Breaking Benjamin and Seether to Drain STH and Disturbed to Matchbox 20 and (gasp!) even Britney Spears (hey! I said pop too!). I used to love country but it's gotten REALLY lame over the years.

Books: Mostly fantasy. George RR Martin, Robert Jordan, Steven Brust, I've got a pretty extensive library...and have read them all at least 10x.

TV Shows: Haha...I don't watch much modern TV...my netflix plays Buffy and/or Ghost Whisperer almost exclusively =D. The kids LOVE them both lol.

Movie: Too many to name...Mr. and Mrs. Smith usually comes to mind first...though it's not necessarily my favorite.

How would people describe your personality? This is a tough one...I know how I'D describe my personality...and it's probably the opposite of how others describe me. Most people tend to think I'm very serious...to the point of biting lol. *shrug*...dunno here.

Goals/Dreams: Finally get my prereq's finished so I can get into and finish Pharmacy school. Well, that or win the lottery lol.

stacimusmax

Name: Stacy

Ht: 5’6"

Hair: Strawberry Blonde (actually short but I wear extensions most of the time)

Eyes: Blue

Starting weight: 190 Current Weight: 158

Status: Terribly complicated...married 19 years but separated and heading for divorce (I will always love him, he doesn't love me like a husband should love a wife). Mother of 2 boys, 18 & 23.

Job: Critical Care Resource Nurse & love it

Why I chose my screen name: I want to be fun and live to my "max"imum potential

My style: I like wearing form fitting clothes (now that I have lost some weight). It feels good to be thinner and attractive again. I love a comfy pair of jeans and a t-shirt.

Hobbies/How I spend my time: I work too much. The most important thing I do for me is working out regularly. I love visiting National Parks (I hope to take a travel assignment maybe next year and get closer to some of them). I enjoy traveling and seeing new places. I am a photographer at heart. I love taking pictures of all the wonderful places I have had an opportunity to visit. I even received an Honorable Mention in the National Parks Photo Contest last year (with a picture of a moose drinking water).

Fave Music: I like all kinds of music...country, rock, christian, hip/hop, dance

Fave Books; I am not a big reader

Fave TV Show: Big Bang Theory, Game of Thrones

Fave Movie: Whatever is on in front of me at the time

How would people describe your personality: I think I would be described as fun, outgoing, and smart. I am confident & sometimes a little cocky (but not in an ugly way). I believe in happily ever after romance (I am looking forward to the day that I find it). I love to laugh & smile. I am pretty direct, you will know how I feel most of the time. I can be quiet and reserved but given the right circumstances I can be completely wild and free.

Goals/Dreams: I want to find the man of my dreams and share the rest of my life with him. I want to retire from nursing around 55 and travel. While traveling I will be an amateur photographer. My dream includes being a passenger on the back of a Harley with the man of my dreams. I am looking forward to tomorrow...whatever it may bring.
