    Silly, but I'm from Roanoke, VA and my name is Joseph. I made the profile last year. So not creative.

    When I was a kid I used to pretend that digimon were real and I had three digimon partners. That was also the era that online really became common, so I named my accounts Tri-Avalon to mean three heavens, and it has stayed that way.

    Addie is my "in real life" nickname (it is pronounced like 80, and is a shortened version of my name which is Adrienne). Overhaul is because I am overhauling my lifestyle and my body!

    Awesome :) My friend was diagnosed a couple of years ago. Hearing the stories from her and the adjustments she's made to her diet has given me a new appreciation for my health...or even those days where I'm feeling "sick", I tend not to complain as much ;)

    As for my name, MFP cuts the whole thing off so now it just looks like I'm a smartass who also tells lies.

    My name is Liesl (full username: SarcasticLiesl). I picked out the username a couple of years ago when I first joined and wasn't feeling very creative. I'm highly sarcastic (often offensive) and I have a unique name.

    Damn dude that sucks. I was initially diagnosed with Crohn's when I was 11 years old, but further testing revealed it to be Ulcerative Colitis, which sucks in its own right. I will be fine for a few years, and them bam, it comes back in full force and I am bound to the nearest bathroom losing blood like a lacerated pig. Here is hoping for more advancements in intestinal diseases, colon cancer is no joke.

    My initials, including maiden and married. Also spells mother with no vowels. And I have 2 kids, so kinda "mother of 2" using my initials.

    Mine is painfully boring, first and last initials and month and year of birth.
    I have another screen name that I use all over the net but honestly when I started here I wanted a little anonymity/privacy so I used this one.

    It was in a Curious George episode. Bill was calling his escaped bunnies "Oh, Fluffy ! Brownie ! Oh Whitey ! Herbert
    Nenenger ! "
    It just struck me as off the wall and humorous.

    I joined the rowing team (crew) as a freshman in high school. After the initial spring season, I discovered there were summer and fall programs. I rowed for a total of eleven seasons in four years. Hence, nut4crew.

    There were green ice floes in lake Malar in Sweden, according to a book by Annemarie Selinko called Desiree. My mom had me read it when I was 10, and green ice floes seemed like the most wonderful things ever back then. Boring, but there you go.

    Someone wrote a post about how annoying it is when people incorporate being a parent into their username so I changed mine immediately to usernameMAMA.

    Nothing spectacular here... Just my initials and then Food for Life... To me, food for life means eating healthier to live a longer life... While at the same time meaning eating great foods that make life happier... Kinda like everything in life, the ying and yang, the balance... So I try to eat foods that are good and healthy for me most of the time... And on those occasions that I am out with friends and enjoying great friendships, laughter and decadent foods, I eat what I want and enjoy life... Life is too short to do anything but love it and live it to the fullest!!

    It is one of the few Gaelic phrases I know which means "nothing without effort". I thought it was very apropos for this.
