Check THIS out! Silly Contest inside... UPDATE OP, Winner Announced!

[zakatak]

OK, so as you can see by my timer down there... I have less than 48 hours until I am in WDW!! So... here is my silly contest for anyone who is interested...

I will weigh in tomorrow morning and post my weight. Then, when I return, I will weigh in on Monday morning (7/14) to see how much I've gained... (I'm expecting it, lol).

Now for the contest... while I am gone, or before, whatever... post what you think I will weigh when I get back. You have to guess to the tenth of a pound (i.e. 118.8) since my scale is pretty accurate (hint... I've never had an odd tenth).

The person who is the closest (or who hits it on the nail) will get a special souvenier from this trip. If you post before I leave, you can give me suggestions (otherwise you get what I think is COOL! ).

What do you think? Shall we have some fun with Karen getting fat again? (I will enjoy every moment of it too!)

Ok... So, I will post my starting weight tomorrow morning... Have Fun while I am gone!!

Karen

PS... if per chance a ton of people respond to this (lol) then the FIRST person to nail the weight will win. The others will just get a standing ovation by me.


UPDATE: Wednesday morning, 6am... start weight... 114.8 Good Luck! Have Fun... be gentle

 

[ohiominnie]

HA HA! I'm LOL at this contest!!
I need to know, though...how much park time do you do? Do you have priority seating anywhere or will you just do ala carte at stands and things? How long are you going to be gone?



MY GUESS, 115.0 even

 

[zakatak]

Alright, for inquiring minds... here is my itinerary...

Thur 7/3... arrive, lunch & dinner at foodcourt.
Fri 7/4... Breakfastasaurus at AK, eating around the WORLD for dinner.
Sat 7/5... Dinner at Jiko
Sun 7/6... Lunch at Liberty Tree Tavern, eating around the OTHER side of the World...
Mon 7/7... CRT for breakfast
Tues 7/8... 50's Primetime for lunch
Wed 7/9... Coral Reef Lunch
Thur 7/10... 1900 Park Fair for Breakfast, Dinner at California Grill
Fri 7/11... Liberty Tree Tavern for Dinner
Sat 7/12... Kona Cafe for Breakfast, Luau at night!
Sun 7/13... leave for home

We have APs, so we will be doing parks in the morning, then swimming, then some parks in the evening. I have three little kids and a cranky dh so there will be NO commando touring!

Another point to keep in mind, I will still eat NO dairy, No red meat/chicken (some fish), but I will thoroughly enjoy SUGAR SUGAR SUGAR!!! lol (can you tell my weakness?)

How is that for more information? lol

Hmmm....here's my guess- 116.2
Tah-dah!!! Now go EAT and order that fudge!!!



I love silly contests- I'll guess after I see what you weigh tomorrow. I'll edit my post tomorrow with my guesstimate. Now OhioMinnie is gonna be really competitive with this isn't she??? Hmmm, so in order to accurately calculate water retention and bloat fairy dust I'll need to know- drinking any alcholic beverages?? are you flying or driving- this does affect water-- and what's the % humidity of the days you'll be there? That should do it- oops- and when you say sugar do you mean taffy or full fledged fudge? The caffeine in the chocolate desserts could have a role as well. HA HA HA!!
And can we make requests? Post cards suit me just fine. But your time clock says 5 days more not 2 days more! So when are you leaving?? Have a FANTASTIC time and I'll try to lose double the amount you gain while you're gone! Have FUN!

Oh this is toooo much! Count me in to play. And, in case anyone is wondering, I'm going to win! Tara, take a look at Karen's tag: "Why oh why are liquor stores closed on Sunday's". I'm thinkin it's a safe bet to assume Karen WILL be drinking alchoholic beverages....probably on Sunday too. LOL!!

Linda


MY GUESS: 117.4

 

[Beanie]

I'm game! Sounds like fun!! I will also edit my post tomorrow after I see the starting weight!

LOL Linda, I was thinking the same thing about that tag line!!

 

[zakatak]

You guys crack me up!

Some more answers: Yes, I will be drinking, although not too heavily (i.e. have kids lol).

I will be flying and the humidity, I think, will be about 1200%! lol

Sugar means CHOCOLATE and only CHOCOLATE! lol

I don't know why my countdown timer says 5 days to you??? It says 1 day to me... hmmm... what does everyone else see? If it isn't working to everyone else, I am leaving at 5:00am on Thursday morning... That is why I will count tomorrow as start weight, since I won't be popping on Thursday morning at that awful time! lol (Promise I won't binge on Wednesday, either...

Ok now! Any more questions? This is fun!

Karen

 

[Beanie]

Your countdown timer is right to me...it says 1 day, 16 hours...

 

[MelanieC]

Your counter is right to me too! How exciting to be leaving in 1 day. I have ALOT of days left till Nov 13th!

You all have made me laugh so much this afternoon while reading this thread! This should be fun.

Melanie

 

[d.kurz]

I'll play!! And have a GREAT trip!!!

 

[Jomrog]

If I had 3 kids & a cranky DH I would be drinking MORE!!! I am outta here to the beach on Saturday but I'm in. I will take a guess so I can win a new WDW coffee mug!!!!

Have a super magical fun trip!!!!

I guess: 114.4

 

[PartyofSix]

What types of fluids that are non acholic are you consuming this trip? Water, soda, diet soda, fruity drinks? I wanna play.

 

[zakatak]

I only drink water (gave up all soda on October 23, 2002 and juices make me gag).

So, to answer your question fully... I shall be enjoying water and the occasional strawberry daq~!

OK, it's now 4:15am on Wednesday morning, and guess who CAN'T sleep? lol... but I will head back up to bed in a bit, then weigh in the real morning...

[zakatak]

Karen

 

[ohiominnie]

Oooh....here we go.


I edited my first post to reflect my guess.....115.0 even.

But, one question....
will you weigh yourself when you get home?? Or will you wait until the next morning. That will make a difference in my guess.

 

[zakatak]

ohiominne... I will weigh myself the next morning... Monday, July 14th. So the last RICH meal will be breakfast in WDW on Sunday...

hee hee hee... under 24 hours now...

 

[TigH]

Have a great trip, Karen!!!!! I hope you enjoy every mouthful!!! Will send some wishes out for perfect weather while you are here!

 

[DISNEYFANRI]

Have a wonderful trip Karen! Here's my guess 118.2.

 

[yasuern]

Okay I'll play - Having just spent 8 glorious nights and 9 wonderful days at WDW - I think you will weigh 114.8lbs - with all the extra walking and the heat - I think you will maintain your weight! - HAVE A GREAT TRIP!

 

[d.kurz]

117.6

And again...have a BLAST!!!!!
