I bet we get to 2000 posts before we go on the cruise!!!!

 

[cblack]

so a few weeks ago I posted that I was trying to lose weight for the cruise -that didnt go anywhere - but I started again last Saturday. I decided to join Jenny Craig - I lost 30 pounds on JC about a year ago but then my whole life went crazy and i gained 22 pounds back.

I am determined to stick to it this time......So I am still hoping to be down 15 by the time we leave.

I will post each week on progress - the board will keep me honest.

First week I lost 3 pounds....goal is 2 this week

Hi Averysmommy, maybe we can motivate one another. I joined weight watchers a couple weeks ago and have lost 5 lbs so far. Hoping to lose another 17 before the cruise.

Good luck, I will be cheering you on!

TOTALLY cheering you both on! I am trying to lose the final ten (the hardest ones) before we cruise. I've been losing slowly(properly) in order to live well for a few years now. I starting running in April but now that the cold weather has set in, I've stopped. Back at it with Jillian Michael's tapes(she is AWESOME).

We can be each others cheerleader's.

First week I lost 3 pounds....goal is 2 this week GOOD FOR YOU! I need to loose some weight as well and plan to start my dieting this coming Monday. Got to do some shopping on Sunday for lots of fruits and veggies, work afternoons today so no time to shop and still want to sit down and kind of plan out my daily meals for the week. Wow the cruise is really getting much closer. Congrats on the 1000 th post!

Hi all!

Just wanted to post yet another quick FE update. We're now at 20 cabins participating with a total of 65 participants. Lets all welcome DisneySilver and DH as the newest boarders to join up!

For those of you who are still thinking about joining, the window is rapidly closing...there are only 18 days left to sign up!

The excitment is certainly building for this cruise. Does anyone else plan to rebook next cruise while onboard?

We may rebook while on board, but it won't be our "next" cruise we'd be booking. We have 3 more DCL sailings (plus on on the Norwegian Epic) already booked, but we might end up booking another one while on board, if only for the discounted deposit and, 10% off, and the extra on-board credit. DW says that her favorite (or favourite, for those of you north of the Border) store on the ship is the Future Bookings desk

We have one in the wings now. Actually we would be cruising next week if we didn't book this because of the discount. Just keep that one around , was suppose to go last year but hubby had to work and couldn't miss that time.

I have been putting up Christmas stuff all day . But first I have to clean and move things out of the rooms to make room stuff. So in other words I have one really nice room done and the rest are a wreck and have stuff to be moved again to do that room.....

Did get the kids bathroom done today by my son. He was grounded from playing video games but played today anyway because he was bored. He had a choice of starting the grounding all over or clean the bathroom. He did the bathroom. Did a good job too. This was the first time he very did it too , asked a million questions but got it done.

Awww - we want to put up Christmas decorations this weekend. My mom is coming in next weekend and I'd love to have everything decorated for that. However, our apartment is getting upgrades (woohoo!!!!) this week so I figured it'd be easier for them if we didn't have even more stuff out than usual

I think I mentioned before that I am putting the inside decorations up after my DD's birthday (after 12/11), but I DID put the outside decorations up tonight. It was great watching DD look at all of them - she had to go through and touch each item in the yard. It was really chilly so we didn't stay out too long.

We are thinking about booking another onboard, but we probably wouldn't sail until 2013, so it would likely be a dummy date.

 

[adventure_woman]

We put up all of our Christmas decorations this weekend too. Wait..I think I still have a few left but ALMOST all are up!

Hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving. Just got back from Williamsburg and Christmas Town at Busch Gardens. It was really beautiful and definately got me in the holiday spirit. Plus I am even more excited to visit Sea World after our cruise - they had flown in penguins from Sea World for Christmas Town.

Didn't do the shopping thing. I pretty much order everything online. I used to love to go shoppiing after Thanksgiving, but since having kids, I really don't enjoy the crowds so much.

Glad our FE list is growing....

That what I say , where did the weekend go! Seems like I have been putting up Christmas stuff up for days. And I am not done yet.

Good for you - 5 pounds - very nice start!!

its so hard - especially this time of the year - but I keep reminding myself that I will enjoy the vacation more if I am down in weight!
