Because you know I’ve been a foodie for so many years, it should come as no surprise that my weight has fluctuated for decades.  I have been everything from a size 8 to a size 24 over the years.  I have given up carbs, given up fat, eaten only fruit, eaten only soup… You name it, and I’ve tried it.  Nothing ever worked for long.  Then I was forced to quit eating wheat, and my weight stabilizes.  Go figure.  I’m not a size 8, or a 24, but I haven’t gained or lost more than 2 lbs in 8 months.  This next Call is all about YOUR figure.  Take a look…

  1. Thank you so much for sharing our information. We appreciate your angle on the subject, especially since I COMPLETELY sympathize with your weight fluctuation. 🙂 Figuratively Speaking can challenge artists to explore this topic in so many different ways and perspectives. We look forward to seeing the submissions.

  2. You’re welcome, Naomi! I have a huge wardrobe, but only because it spans such a large range of sizes, ha. We are thrilled to be able to help the Customs House Museum, and it is a bonus for me that it is so close to home (we’re based in Gatlinburg, TN). Have a Great Week! R.L. Gibson (Rachel), Editor

  3. The website style is great, the article is really great too! : D. Good job, cheers.
