We just rolled into town after a wonderful week at WDW. I missed all of my WISH friends! I will try to catch up on what has been posted during the last week.
As far as eating goes, I think I did okay on my trip. I never finished a meal as the portions they serve you are huge, although there were a few meals where I had multiple courses (appetizer, entree, dessert, although I never finished a plate of anything). I pretty much stayed away from fast food-type food and ate no, or a light breakfast (protein bar or piece of fresh fruit) with the exception of one breakfast at Boma. My one big meal splurge was Jiko, where I had the filet with mac and cheese, but again, I only ate 1/2 of it...still I shreik in horror at the calories I must have consumed! Where I really know I went wrong was drinking. I am not a big drinker, but I gotta tell you that I sucked down a few too many tropical drinks while sitting by the AKL pool! I am telling you the weather was absolutely hateful while we were there...mid-90's and very high humidity...more like typical August weather (but no rain). Anyway, it made me want to drink! LOL! So, drink I did!
We walked a ton, of course, so maybe it balanced out my eating and drinking. I have decided not to weigh myself until my weigh-in day, which is Sunday, so I will let you know how it looks then. My clothes are fitting the same as before I left, which makes me hopeful that the damage isn't too ugly!
