Whats your ethnic background?



Recommended Posts

English and Irish mainly. My dad gave up on doing the family tree when he got back to about 1000 people named Murphy from County Cork, Ireland, lol. Bog standard, common anglo ancestry anyone?

I do have a german great grandmother on my dad's side though.

I'd like to put in an order for some Asian or mediterranean genes though please. I'm a bit tired of being a boring looking pasty white brown haired green eyed caucasion, I need a bit of something exotic in my blood.

Typical American mongrel: Scots-Irish and Irish being the largest contributers of genes, with a strong line of Welsh, a few genuine Sassenachs, and a couple of lines further back of French, Dutch, African, a couple Amerindian tribes, and heaven only knows what else: that's as many as I can determine via genealogy since 1635. :)

That being said, when my children started school, I told them that when officially asked their ethnicity is AMERICAN and their race is HUMAN, and if any bureaucrat wanted to press the matter, to send them to me.

I'm African-American, though I usually refer to myself as black. I have maybe an eighth of Choctaw Indian on my mother's side. I'm not sure about my father. We've had some trouble tracing our family tree, though we're trying.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
