~DISappearing PEEPS~Vol. IV Come Play With Us!!!!!

[mousehouselover]

I was -0.6 lbs this morning. It's not much and I'm still above my pre-WDW weight but I'm headed in the right direction again. I thought I was doing well and staying on top of the little things that create a mishap. Unfortunately, yesterday I wasn't on my best behavior and ice cream got the best of me. I overindulged in full fat, full sugar ice cream with toppings and nuts. I guestimated how many servings I had when I came to my senses and

Jen~ Glad to hear you had a wonderful trip! I love the time I can spend relaxing with DH. I think that's what keeps us together some days. Thanks for the well wishes for our huosehunting efforts. We're still looking and have requested some info on a few more homes. I think we're going to look a bit farther out from WDW as we're finding larger homes/lots for the same price.

Good job everyone on the losses this week!

We've got a storm moving in and it's a doozy. I need to get going.

Hope everyone has been doing well, decided to stop by for a moment.

Exercise has been on and off but when I exercise it's for quite awhile. I've also been studying and took my ACTs not too long ago so excited to see how that goes. I'm really happy with my body right now besides needing to work on my stomach a bit.

I've started making sure I put my acne medication on my face everynight and my face has actually been clearing up pretty well! I'm suprised me since it's never really worked before. I started a garden awhile back and have already had some lettuce from it which was delicious. I'll hopefull have corn, tomatoes, peppers, and carrots before long. I've also started drinking soy milk and it's delicious!

Still struggling to get my mom to exercise with me or eat healthier. I've suggested her exercising with me multiple times and she just laughs and says no way. She said yesterday that she'd rather eat and be happy unhealthy then eat healthy and be miserable. I told her that it's absolutely not miserable to eat healthy and it makes you feel a million times better, but she doesn't believe that. I also get cranky if I don't get to eat 3-4 meals and it seems like she always avoids me when I'm eating because she doesn't want to be tempted to eat even though she hasn't had anything that day. So it's really hard to get her to help me fix something that I can't do by myself.

I won't be weighing in anymore since I'm only stopping by every few weeks, but hope you all have a wonderful day!

Just popping in quickly (and late) to say I'm a samer.

Hey Guys!

Im a SAMER this week!

Jen - Glad you had such a good trip! I agree, All-Inclusive resorts can be a killer if you aren't careful!

I am pleased to report most of my vacation gain was gone by the time I scale hopped this morning. I had been drinking my water the past few days and knew my gain was temporary. I am only up .4 now from my trip so I am even happier with that!

Here are some pictures as promised!
The view from our balcony:

One of the pool areas, there were tons of them:

An infinity pool- you cant tell where the pool ends and the ocean begins. So pretty!

wedding shots:

Our cake! they have a free wedding/vow renewal package that included my cake and flowers and everything, it was great!!

Just for fun:

Thanks for looking!

 

[DisneyGalUK]

Wow, that view from the balcony!
Your pictures are great, and you look fantastic!

 

[mousehouselover]

Awesome pictures Jen!! It's a beautiful resort and you look wonderful!

 

[dwheatl]

Beautiful pictures, Jen. Glad you enjoyed yourselves.

Snow White - on the garden. Home grown veggies have so much more flavor! Sorry your mom is not on board, but i'm glad you are feeling good about your body.

Hey Peeps!
Sorry for posting so late but I weigh in on Mondays now. I am up +1.2 this week! Not so good weekend.


Jen your pictures are fabulous! What resort did you stay at?

Have a great week every one!

 

[UGABelle]

Morning Peeps -

Somehow the weekend went by without a weigh-in - sorry! I am down -0.6 today. I'm still staying about even with just minor + and -, but we're about a month away from our anniversary trip, so I am going to try to step it up in anticipation of that.

Jen - your trip looked awesome! Hope you enjoyed Cancun as much as we did

Hope everyone had a great weekend and has a good week!

 

[my2boysrtwicethefun]

Hey Peeps!
I feel miserable that I have not posted. We moved to a new house and I have been super busy with it. Also I had the post disney blues I don't know if anyone else gets like that but for some reason every time we go to disney I find that I dont post on the boards that often its almost as if I dont want to be reminded that I am back in the real world lol

I am going to the bahamas in 2 months for a bachelorette party so its time to recommit i got 2 months to get my butt in shape.

how has everyone else been?

 

[MA pigletfan]

Hey everyone...Lauren I hear ya...both with the feeling bad for not posting much and the disney blues..granted i have not had that since last oct. after DL...BUT i am pretty excited for this October and to get disney back in my system

On the Peep front.i have been GREAT with exercise and MEH with food..not HORRIBLE but not great..mostly from having a nutso schedule the past few weeks..BUT i should be eating at home all week (till friday anyway)..and that helps tremendously, both the wallet and the waistline!
I have a few fun pics i will upload and share from the Ohio trip we took a few weeks ago, it was for a wedding..which made me REALLY realize mine is right around the corner..WOW!

 

[dwheatl]

Lauren - Welcome back! I don't like coming back to the board after a Dis trip, because there's always somebody just getting ready to go, and I am jealous (that's ugly, I know, but it's true).

I've been doing pretty good on exercise and meh on eating. Saturday night through Sunday afternoon I was out of control, but I am back to writing everything down, and that gets me back on track.

Has anyone had the Kashi TLC granola bars? 120 calories, 4 g of fiber and 5 g of protein. They are VERY whole grainish, but I like that in a granola bar.

 

[LMO429]

so yesterday morning I was stressing that i have 2 months to get in shape for my bahamas trip. I was in my basement and saw the power 90x dvds that I bought over a year ago just sitting there so I opened it up and finally read about it. I was always concerned it may be more for men but they have 3 versions of the power90x one being the lean phase which is more for woman that has more cardio so i started it yesterday

The first workout was challenging but i got through it. this a.m. my buns, abs and inner thighs are screaming!

I am curious if i can actually stick to this I will keep everyone posted on progress.

 

[mousehouselover]

Happy hump day all!

Things have been pretty good here. I did get out of control with food over the weekend but have reined it in this week. Of course, the scale is showing my poor performance........

My garden is doing well, I've got veggies finally! It's going to be really nice to eat things we've grown. (And a lot healthier too as we aren't using pesticides and minimal fertilizers.)

My parents and brother both have gardens (no green thumb here, plus I live in an apt), so the fresh veggies are starting to pile up! I love it though for the break on my checking acct (as I usually spend quite a bit on produce) and that it is healthy and fresh! Made a nice salad last night with cucumbers, squash, zuchini, bell peppers....yummy!

Jen your pictures are fabulous! What resort did you stay at?

Thanks everyone!
It was Moon Palace resort. It is in Cancun but not right on the 'hotel strip' so it was nice and quiet.

Can you tell me where this is? My boyfriend and I are exploring our wedding options and this is something we are interested in. Thanks!!

Moon Palace (and all the palace resorts) have wedding packages and they just recently added the free ones. It was super nice and we had a wedding coordinator assigned to us and everything. It was so easy. They of course have add ons to the basic packages- anything from a horse drawn carriage to upgraded cake and flowers...but since it was just us doing this for us we stuck with what was included. It you have any questions let me know! I know Sandals does weddings too. We honeymooned there and LOVED it. Moon Place was wonderful but it came in a very close second to Sandals we thought.

Hey Peeps!

I am the same way after a Disney trip. I get jealous of all the people getting ready to go
