    You probably already know this, but most people don't believe I ever used to be fat.

    I don't!

    It's amazing what one can do when they put their mind to it.

    I am 50 and just learning about myself. Bout time, huh?

    It seems I appear to be a doormat because I am kind and compassionate.

    I am here to say, I am no longer. Wipe your feet on me and I shall trip you.

    People trip out when they meet me in person. I talk to 99% of my clients over the phone and none of them would ever think I was black. Dude I just have a Seattle, Wa/ California accent..lol

    So I have heard "you sound white" which I just sound proper and enunciate. It has never bothered me. I was a sportscaster for years so it comes with the territory.

    People believe I am lazy and immobile because of my size. Even when I'm in the gym! Then I do 15-20 mins on the elliptical..and the rower... and then something else... and they look at me in complete disbelief. By the time I'm all red-faced and sweaty, they start changing their views!

    I have the opposite of people thinking you were never fat. People never believe I was active as a child. (Fastest sprinter when I was young, played sports like rugby and hockey when I was older).

    I guess we should all try to learn not to judge from first appearances, right?

    Because I have big boobs people seem to think I'm a slut. Also people seem to think I'm younger than I am. I used to be the youngest at my workplace and civic involvement. I'm not anymore but I keep hearing "we really need more young people like you to get involved! "

    1. That I come from a wealthy family. I just happen to be very fortunate and lucky so end up living the same life as the wealthy...this shows through my natural face structure (although I try not to show it in pics here, I often look very mature/serious in real life >_<) and I wear very nice clothing and stuff...Although I think my lifestyle is the main contributor!

    ＼(＾▽＾/*) Ive never heard of this before tho, so I think it is uncommon! I tend to get what I want.

    2. That I am more normal...Im actually very weird. People are always shocked at first with small details about myself, but really, that is when I am trying to show a more normal side of myself haha. (￣▽￣)Y

    3. My personality is more serious...I often make mature decisions in life because I want a good life (obviously ＼(－－)／!), but my personality is really a bit goofy I think.

    That I'm good with pain.
    ---> FALSE. I am actually just really good at hiding it! Whether it's physical or emotional, people always tell me they can never tell if something hurts or not.

    That I wear contacts.
    ---> FALSE: I have green eyes and so many people think they're fake.

    That I'm a teacher.
    ---> FALSE: I'm still a student! However, I'm studying to become a teacher.

    That I love to workout.
    ---> FALSE: I'm a gymaholic!

    First time they see me: I'm a Hard *kitten*, Inflexible *kitten* (Sometimes they are right).

    Never believe that I grew up in the projects of NY. I lived in Edenwald Projects in the Bronx until I was 22. Didn't move to Hudson Valley NY until I turned 33.
