10 months to go and 60 pounds to loose.Update 1/2/11 Page 38

Awwwww! That was a wonderful montage!! Don't forget the most wonderful part of the trip.......meeting me!! Actually, I wish we would have been able to hang out some more! I think you and I might be like two peas in a pod!

Again, great minds think alike!! I am planning on posting some of my favorite pics from each day of our trip starting on May 7th since we were there the 7-17th last year and because normally, we would be leaving on Sat for Disney.

Last years trip was one of our favorites too! We splurged, but it was magical! From the upgrades to MK view, to Emily finally loving the characters and most special of all; Eva, our little souvenir that we came home with. That trip will always be special to me!

Nickie,
Congrats! on the weight loss...you are just melting away!!
the Robin Hood and Toy Story nights came out great and looks like lost of fun (as always)...

great travel down memory lane from last year! thanks for sharing again...

on the resort question...I would love to try out the WL myself but I can never give up that amount of money...I'm the tight wad around here...if it were me I would stay at POFQ and plan an ADR there and check it out or plan your last nights there (I know Wayne said no to a spilt stay; but, I bet that would be fun--but if you do be sure to do it last you may feel down at the POFQ; although remember the POLY you liked it but you said not all that much more than POFQ.

My TR link is in my siggie

So I must admit..... I have lost it with the weight loss... the last few weeks I think I have been cheating and then cheating some more... I am up 4 pounds now, and will probably be up a little more by friday.... seems how I ate lot's of pizza last night.

Maybe I am starting to feel more confortable and I thought I could eat whatever I wanted again. Nope! Wake up call for me... I need to go back to square one.

Man this is HARD!

Wendy I thought about after I wrote it to add in that I met you! I know if we lived closer that we would be BFF's! Maybe we will meet up again in Disney. I think 2012 when I have my 10th anniversary that we will be there in May. Maybe that will be a Grand Floridian trip!

Hi Connie! I am so excited you started your TR! AND thank you so much for reminding me about the Poly. You are TOTALLY right. I want to go on this trip and not feel that we are spending too much money.... with me out of work this year, we should really take whatever savings we can and be happy with that..... I think the WL will have to wait until next year.

Oh and about my weight loss.... i am not melting... it is coming back on and I have fallen off the wagon... back on today... I am hoping I can get motivated again.

Great updates Nickie! Loved everything you did for Robin Hood and TS night! Those TS cupcakes look so YUMMY!

I really enjoyed your trip down memory lane. I can't believe how much your boys have grown. Owen is starting to look like a little boy rather than a baby. I love all his expressions (especially in the pic with Chris and the arrows on head ).

With regards to your minor weightloss setback, EVERYBODY struggles with weight loss. If it were easy, we'd all be skinny super models right?? Kudos to you for owning the setback. Now that you recognize it, you will be just fine. I'm sure you will be back where you were a week ago next week! Hang in there Nickie!! You've got this!!

 

[Charlefours]

Love you Disney nights as usual!! Such cute photos from your mother's day trip last year! :

Resort: Well, since I am recently getting over my latest bout of resort-itis I am not the best one to ask. I moved our resort from POR to CSR last week! I am really excited about it!! I am saving WL for our family only trip. :

I have learned the hard way too that I cannot let myself have leeway either. I gained back weight but I am back down to where I was plus 2.2 more. Hang in there!! You have proven you can lose it, you will again! You are doing such an AMAZING job!!

We would be BFFs! When Mike was looking for other jobs, there was one that peaked his interest in the Boston area and the first thing I thought was, "cool, I could hang with Nickie!!"

We'll definitely meet up again at Disney!! We are staying at the GF in May 2012 for our 10th anniversary too!! What day is your anniversary, I forgot? We'll have to plan that trip together!!

I couldn't have said it better! You are doing a great job and this minor set back is just the extra boost you need to keep going!

Give me an N!, Give me an I!, Give me a C!, Give me a K!, Give me an I!, Give me an E! What's it spell..NICKIE, louder...NICKIE!! Go Nickie!!​

 

[jngwright]

So, first of all here is a big for the gain. You have been losing and losing and losing and doing a great job, this is just a bump in the road!!!!!!

If you can convince Wayne, and get a good deal-you will not regret staying at WL! We love POFQ, too-but Wilderness Lodge has all kinds of benefits (boat to MK!!!) and beauty that you would all enjoy!

Your trip down memory lane from last year gave me little goosebumps! Mother's Day in the MK..what a dream!

Here's a thought...we should put a group together and train for the Expedtion Everest 5K next June!!! That would be 5 months after your trip, and 5 months before my next trip We could meet, run..., get a Disney fix with the excuse of health!!!

Question-We have a 8:15pm ressie at CM in a few weeks and since the fireworks changes from Wishes (which we are seeing on the 5th) to Summer Nightasitc, I thought we could watch Nightasic from the Poly beach after supper. How do you get to the beach? We would take the monorail from CR to Poly, but where do we go from the monorail??

Take care and have a good weekend and hang in there!!!!!!

 

[praisehisname]

Wayne and I fell in love all over again....

What a great picture!

Don't worry about the 4 pounds; you didn't let it make you quit, so just pick up and keep going!

Thanks Leanne! It is so nice hearing your words of encouragement. I need it Isnt it crazy how fast these kids grow!? Owen is looking more and more like a little boy- I cant stand it. It is funny that you mention his expressions... he does make the best expressions I cant wait to hear all about your trip!! I hope next week I can report that I have found my way back on track....

I hope you have a HAPPY Mother's Day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you so much! I think WL will be for our family only trip next year!! So what made you change? CSR looks beautiful. I was VERY tempted to try it this time.... but I just love that boat from POFQ/POR to DTD....

Congrats to you - are you guys still walking??

Have a happy Mother's Day!!!!

You always crack me up!!! Thank you so much!!

You know- my anniversary is May 31st - but I was married in 2003 so my tenth is a year after yours. I guess I can find out from your trip if we should be staying at GF! Just like you are going to stay at WL and we plan to next year... and I stayed at Poly the year after you.... I am such a copy cat!!!

I hope you have a VERY HAPPY MOTHERS DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If you get that bag you better post some pics!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jill- LOVE your idea.... hmmm that would be so much fun. I wonder if I could swing it... maybe if just Wayne and I go and we go for the weekend or something... WOW- an adults only and the run.... so FUN!

Thanks so much for your encouragement... I am going to start over again on Monday. We have family in and I am hostomg a big party and Wayne's birthday was thursday and he wanted chinese.... this week is a BUST!

When we go to Chef Mickey we hop on the monorail and then go down to the first floor and walk out the back doors and follow the signs to the marina... we watch them from the beach and there is a little swing and tiki torches... we couldnt hear the music though and this year we are going to stay at CR and go to the 4th floor where you can hear the music.... just an idea for you too!

I HOPE YOU HAVE A HAPPY MOTHERS DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey! can I come too! but, I will rent an ECV for Wendy and I to share! you think we can park it at the half way mark!


I really need to find a local walking track and get my butt off this couch...
I keep going back and forth on the weight can't get past the first 5#'s...

 

[airhead]

Nickie-if it's just one day I would sneak her into your room anyway. OR see if your uncle can just stay at the Disney hotel another night even though he's going to Universal.

One night??? Def stay in the one room!

 

[jngwright]

We have a year to train!!! Doesn't this look cool?? We could have a team with all the people from your TR! (Wendy, Connie,...who am I missing?)
