Sure, it makes perfect sense. When you lose weight, the pants come down further on your hips.

By the way, I'm delurking. My name's Amy.

Hi Amy. I'm glad to meet you.

jen anderson... i seriously almost spit my water out all over my computer with the image of you on the treadmill drinking a beer!!! LOL! love the MFM book!

QOTD... Favorite resort
We love the Beach Club/ Boardwalk area... it feels like home to us! Love being able to walk to epcot and mgm (which i will always call it) and hopping the monorail to MK... can't wait to stay at Bay Lake Towers though.

Rewards... my goal weight reward is to go to NYC for a weekend and see a show... I've never been. my DD13 has been there 4 times! And after wearing her uggs around all morning... i think I'd like to add them to my reward list too!! so comfy!!!! right now i am working towards a new haircut and color. And even though I'm not at 5 or 10 lbs yet... I'm going out this weekend with some girls to buy a new outfit (no jeans and tshirts) We have a personal shopper at jcrew to help us... and we're getting our make up done at Sephora... can't wait!! then we are meeting our husbands for dinner at a fancy restaurant!

I hope to stay more on top of this super fast moving thread and chime in more often...
have a magical day... wish it wasn't snowing here... blech!
Jessi

Your weekend sounds wonderful. You will feel so good with a new outfit and new makeup. I always feel like a new personal after such a day.

Good Morning Everyone,

I hope everyone is having a good morning. I have to tell you all, that I have enjoyed being the coach! I do think it is funny though, that the week I am coach, had to be my most chaotic week at work!

So, I will post the QOTD and then come back and answer.

If you could create/invent a ride or attraction at DW or DL, what would it be and why?

Check back later!

Don't know what they have done to you, but I wish it would rub off on me. I have been eating like crap all week. Gotta get back into the thread, and back into a healthy eating pattern.

I ate really crappy for a week and then all the stuff I ate, just turned my stomach after. Hopefully the same will happen for you. I also cut out chocolate and it has made a huge difference in how I feel over all.

Keep drinking the kool-aid sister! (but I do have to add in all seriousness if you continue and don't have an appetite go to the dr!)

I'm drinkin' it!!! I'm drinkin' it!! But yes Mom, I will go to the Dr if I still feel this way. Not that I want to step on his scale!!

Good QOTD. Being from Ohio (Roller Coaster Capital of the World) and only 2 hrs away from Cedar Point, the ride would have to be some type of rollercoaster. I would actually like to see a slow to moderate speed roller coaster with some hills that are not to big, themed something like Splash Mountain. Some people don't like the speed or heights.

OOOH!....I LOVE this!! I have thought for a long time now that there should be a ride based on the "door chase" scene in Monster's Inc.! Disney being who they are, I'll bet they could come up with something awesome!!

I'm going to try to jump back in - I don't seem to have kept up with the thread that well. I have done ok - The first two weeks were good, then a gain last week. This week is going very well and I've lost what I've gained plus more! I'm trying to keep it one day at a time, and I think maybe I've hit my stride (praying I did).

I've always wanted a Villans park, with dark rides and coasters based on the most famous Disney villans. You could have a scrambler type ride based on Ursula the Octopus from Little Mermaid, a dragon coaster based on Sleeping Beauty.....

QOTD: I'm not very creative but I AM good at copying so I'm copying PeterPan...a villain's ride would would be awesome!

me too. Anything Villains related would be awesome!!

 

[jennz]

Did anyone ever go to the villain's dinner they used to have? We didn't go, were afraid dd, who was around 5 at the time I think, would have cried.

 

[BernardandMissBianca]

not be, that was before we discovered Disney.
Kills me that I missed it though!

 

[BernardandMissBianca]

OH idea!!!!

I want to see the Villains take over MGM for Halloween. The tweens and teens would love it!! Scarier then MK but not as scary as Universal.

I would build on the great innovation of Soarin' -- I'd adapt Soarin' so you could be "soarin" over a variety of locations, and everytime you rode, you might get a different one. I'd let you either choose your location, or choose to be surprised. You could soar over Europe, South America, I can think of all kinds of great places! I'd love to soar over Italy, I think that could be really cool!

Today I got up and did 4M incline walking. I was well-rested, having taken Corinna's advice and punted yesterday. I'm looking forward to my 6M run tomorrow, I'm going to get up and get it done before work so I can enjoy the rest of ds's 12th birthday!

I would like an Atlantis ride. An Ariel ride AND..... A Treasure Planet ride. But I think the ship has sailed (doh!) on all of them.


Maria - glad to hear you decided to rest and are feeling excited about your next run. It is tempting to try to work out daily (or nearly daily) when so many people seem to do that or strive for it, and to feel guilty when we fall short. But for me, fortnately or unfortunately, my body always says when it needs a rest with plenty of fatigue and miserable workouts until I give it a chance to repair a little. Also, I'd LOVE to Soar over something besides California for a change.

That would be so FUN!!!! And I bet it would sell out!!

Congrats on 4 miles today! And 6 tomorrow - wow! That Soarin' sounds great!

The Monsters Inc ride sounds great too - Disney are listening??

Corrina I'm pretty sure they are doing a Little Mermaid as part of the Fantasyland expansion. I thought that was going in where 20k was.

Metabolism kicked back in! I was back down below what I was last Friday and I'm OP today. Had a Lean Cuisine for lunch. Did 5 miles of WATP this morning. Hope to get in another 2-3 later this afternoon. Gonna go clean up my bedroom as it is becoming a PIT!

I am going to have my M&Ms treat right now before I do other work.

It's snowing here! Snow showers all day and squalls predicted for later.

Gonna watch movies and play games tonight and practice flute with DD1 and study for her spelling test with her. They pretty much fills up the evening!

Hope everyone has a super afternoon!

Woo hoo!! That's great - you'll have a good weigh in tomorrow. I'm ready for some snow - if it's going to be cold it should snow. But at least we have the sun today - it's been so long that it is actually strange to see the sun out!

I am finally feeling better (thanks Lisa for asking ) as you can all probably tell from my posting today. Done working for the day, now I'm going to get on the treadmill, but slowly for today, and watch my reality trash tv.

I haven't been following the Fantasyland thing very closely - I hope you're right! The bit characters in that movie are my favorite, especially Louie and Scuttle.

Oh, if it's not toooo late, I'd also like to see a Stitch ride that was worthy of his name in one of the parks. The alien encounter is just not that fun, especially for the target age range of the Stitch movies and TV show. Plus, points off for any ride with a stinky smell incorporated in the story. Bleh. There are so many cool possibilities for a Stitch ride, and again, the minor characters in that are my favorite. Gantu and Pleakley and David.
