15 trivia answers about me

Since I've being doing trivia, I thought it'd be kind of fun to write some questions about myself. I don't really expect anyone to know these by the way. It's not actually a reflection of how well you know me, just if you know trivia about me.

I've officially begun my second cycle. On Wednesday, I had a virtual appointment, yesterday I had my baseline ultrasound, and today I began injections again. On Wednesday, I expressed my concern about my weight and was told not to fret about it for this cycle but that I should work on it for my health. I got told some vague things about measuring my food by volume and weight and that being the key the weight loss (idk it sounded weird to me).

Because of these two events (one stressful, one fun), I del...
