Hi All!!!! I thought I was never going to get back to WISH! I tried to log on all day yesterday and I was unable to. I don't know what was going on.

So Monday was a good day! I got up and did my exercise, not as long as I would have wanted but at least I did it!!!! I really wanted to get in at least 30 minutes on the ellipitcal but I got up so late that I could only get in 20. I got in almost 100oz of water, so I was good there too!!! I was so tired on Monday night, that I fell asleep on the couch.......hardly ever do that!
Tuesday I got the weights in and that was much needed. I did about 20 minutes of that as well!!! I need to go update my signature now!!!!

Monday:

B at 5:30 1/3 cup cereal with 1/3 cup milk
S at 8:30 1 Nature Valley granola bar
L at 12:45 turkey and cheese sandwich with 1 cup fresh fruit
S at 3:00 1 Nature Valley granola bar
D at 6:00 2 BBQ hot dogs! YUM!

Tuesday:

B skipped, I was not feeling well at all.
S at 8:30 8 oz of strawberry/blueberry smoothie
L at 12:00 1 can of HC chicken with rice soup
S at 3:00 8 ox strawberry/blueberry smoothie
D at 6:15 2 scrammbled eggs

I weighted myself yesterday morning and still no change. I have not gained and I have not lost. I want to lose. Maybe next week the scale will show something. I am really looking forward to changing that 0/5 to 1/5...anything!!!!

I am so glad that I can get back on to WISH. I was so worried I really thought that IT had blocked the website. I kept getting "this page can not be displayed"

So we are still planning on WDW!!! Just watching TS Irene. I hope she goes back out to sea.

Well I will get caught up on everyones journal at lunch.

Have a great day!

Hi Mike!!! Thanks so much. I missed WISH too!!!! Too weird I could not get on the site yesterday. I wanted to cry!

Hope you are having a good day!

I am glad to see you got more hot dogs! I love smoothies, especially this time of year when the fruits are fresh and yummy! I fried up 2 blenders in my smoothie heyday, but I've managed to keep the one I have for over a year now!!!

I am with you, I want the scale to move! It hasn't gone up, but this is my 2nd "5 for" challenge and I have yet to lose a single lb!! Come on scales, cooperate! Here is some dial-moving dust for them.

Hi! You are doing great! Are you excited for your upcoming trip?! I am soooo jealous! I have about 3 1/2 months left until I get to go! Keep up the good work!

 

[crusin'minnie]

Sounds like you are doing really well!! Keep up the good work.

We love PO Riverside. We have stayed twice and we always request Magnolia Terrace. But the whole place is lovely. Some fantastic photo opportunities.

Hi Jamie!!!

Glad to hear that you can get on the WISH!!! I was freaking out myself at the difficulties the past few days!!!

Sounds like you are doing great working out and getting that water in! Good job!! I am going to see if I can place a person to person call to TS Irene and see if I can convince her to stay away so you have a blast at WDW!!

Hope you are having a healthy and happy night!
Mike

Hi All!!!!

I only have a few minutes as I need to get back to work.....

But yesterday was a really good day. I got up did my exercise, not like I would have wanted to, but I got it in! I drank tons of water. At work, I got in 64 oz and then at home I got in another 64oz. I was so thirsty yesterday!

DH has been bugging me about WDW. He keeps telling me that we need to sit down and make a list of everything that we need to take with us. And that we need to do it NOW! It can't wait until next weekend! I think that he is more excited than I am! He just won't admit it.

B at 5:30 Yoplait yougurt, I shared a little with the furbabies. They love yougurt. In fact they have to have yougurt because they are diabetic~
S at 8:30 1 nature valley granola bar
L at 12:00 turkey and cheese sandwich with 1 cup fresh fruit
S at 2:45 1 nature valley granola bar
D at 6:00 2 BBQ hotdogs

Today we ordered Qdoba for lunch and YUM! I did really good though. I had chicken with a wheat tortilla, very little cheese and tons of salsa! They gave us cookies and brownies, but I am staying away. I DON"T want one. Well really I do, but I am not going to have one. So far I have gotten in 48 oz of water and there is still 3 hours to go!

Hope you all have a great weekend. I don't know if I will be able to post or not, but I will try. If not, see ya all on Monday!

This is our second time to POR and the first time we really loved it. I was so upset because we didn't get any pictures of the hotel. Not really sure why....but we didn't. Bet your bottom dollar we are going to get tons of pictures this time! Last year we stayed in the Oak Monor and my DH liked it so much that he wants me to request it again!

I am so excited. I think I am more excited about going to WDW this year than I was when we were going to DL!!!! We love DL but we have just been there so many times.

Only a few more days! I can't wait!

 

[crusin'minnie]

Congrats on drinking your water. Shouldn't be too hard to continue that on the trip.

Hope you have a good weekend!

I understand what you mean about Disneyland. I grew up 30 miles away and it seemed like we went there at least once a month! Not complaining...I just don't get that excited to go. I am, however, ecstatic about our trip to WDW!!! This is this first time for both of us! I can't wait!!! It seems to have a lot better food and so much more to do than Disneyland. Anyways, great work on getting into shape and don't eat TOO many churros at Disney World...just jokin'! Have fun and keep up the great work!

 

[keenercam]

Hi, Jamie! Congrats on your great food choices at lunch. And good job on avoiding the treats! I bet you feel so great about yourself, right? Just think about how awesome you will feel going into the weekend knowing you faced that challenge down at lunch today!

Have a great weekend and keep up the awesome work!

Hi Jamie!

Sounds like your DH has the WDW "bug". I bet you both are sooooo excited! You are going to have a blast at WDW!!!

You are doing an awesome job on the cheat free challenge! Keep up the good work!

Have a great weekend!

[Mykelogan]

Hi Jamie!!!
How cool is it that your DH is sooo excited for WDW!!!?? hehe!! Well you both are! hehe!! You are going to have a blast!!!

I was a bad BB fan and read the spoilers on HOH this morning, i couldn't resist!!! I am not happy I read some it though... something fishy is up, is all I will say... can't want to see it transpire tonight!

Have a great Saturday!
Mike

HI All!!!

So this weekend was pretty good. The weather totally sucked so we were not able to get out on the bikes. But that is okay. We needed some rest and we need to get planning for WDW. We went to the inlaws' to try and figure out if they want to do any PS. So we looked at menu after menu....my MIL is NO help!!!! So I am going to plan this my self....I planned where we want to eat, now I just need to get the email off to Penny with Dreams Unlimited. I am hoping to get that done tonight!

For some reason I wanted to give it all up this weekend. I don't know what made me do it, but I got on the scale and still nothing. I am so tired of seeing nothing. But I didn't. I kept on and then when I got to work I started reading journals. I knew that I was going to do it this time. I won't quit!!! Not this time!

Friday
B at 5:30 1 yoplait yougurt
S at 8:30 8oz smoothie
L Qdoba chicken with wheat tortilla and salsa. Skipped the cookies. I wanted one though. I took it home to DH!
S 8 oz smoothie
D at 7:00 I brought some chicken home from lunch, they were going to throw it away! I heated it up in the microwave and that was dinner!

Saturday

B at 7:30 1 yoplait yourgurt
S skipped

I drank tons of water. That is the only thing that I don't track on the weekend all that well. I know that I got down 2 quarts though.....

Well I better get back to work. It is a crazy day here!

Thanks to everyone that posts in my journal. All of you are an inspiration to me!

Good for you!!!

Planning PS sounds like lots of fun! Enjoy getting ready for your trip!
