Liebster Award!!!

 

I can't believe that I have been nominated for the Liebster Award! Mege at Missus.and.Sausage is beyond sweet and is so inspirational. First, I am so very thankful! Secondly, I recognize that I haven't been writing as much lately. School is in full swing and it's really incredible how many tests I even have. This is the description of the Liebster Award that I totally stole from Mege (hope you don't mind)!

Basically it's an award where you nominate bloggers that you enjoy reading. It's an award for bloggers with less than 200 followers, but who (in the person who nominates yous opinion) deserve way more! :)

Rules are rules!
- Once you're nominated, write 11 facts about yourself
- Then take a look at the 11 questions the person who nominated you asked and answer them
- Get your thinking cap on and come up with 11 questions of your own for your nominees to answer
- Then choose the 11 bloggers you want to nominate (they must have less than 200 followers)
- Let them know they've been nominated and remember there's no tag backs, i.e. you can't nominate the person who nominated you.

4. What made you want to start blogging? I had a specific day that I started to lose weight and wanted to document a year of -50 pounds. I knew that it was a big deal and I'd want to look back at it.

10. Is there anything you gave up on that you wished you hadn't? What was it? Not really haha. Maybe working out and dieting in the past.
