You guys are AWESOME!! I must appear slim due to the absolute HUGENESS of those belt buckles. (advantage belt buckles).

I still have over 20 lbs to lose befoer I get to my goal weight, which is still a good 35 lbs heavier than I was in college.

This is the picture I have in an 8x10 to help me stay motivated. This is 20 lbs heavier than I am now:

I don't actually have any current pics. I just NEVER want to look as heavy as I was in that pic again. It ruins my memories to see how heavy I am in those pics. I was a model in college and a size 4/6, so they hurt.

The instant we got the pics in April, I started working hard and losing weight. I stalled out in October with the holidays, but I am on another push to lose 10 more lbs (at least) before our next trip, so I feel better about the pics this time.

Thanks a BUNDLE for telling me I look skinny. I love you forever.

I love those pics of the belt buckles! I didnt see any muffin tops,,,what I DID notice was a skinny waist in jeans!

Thats cool that you were a model in college!
before kids I was an Aerobics instructor and personal trainer and managed 3 health clubs,,now I can bearly get up the basement stairs without huffung and puffing,,,

Some of the belt buckles came today.

Dude:

Hee hee. I had forgotten about this one. I have a feeling my brother's going to swip this one when we go to Phoenix:

Me likee dragons:

Pirates of the Caribbean beer!

And this is what was already on my belt....

Yep. getting my checklist done. Now to find those adult-sized underoos...

Oh, I know the pics are off center. I was self-photoing. Don't mind the muffin-top. I'm working on it.

Great buckles.

Don't mind me while I walk up to you and open my beer......

HHBG took my POTCBeer belt.

I guess it's payback for my swiping his sweaters all the time.

You look mighty thin to me! Kudos to you for the weight loss.

I can't remember the last time I owned a belt. I would be to see me with a shirt tucked in let alone a belt.

I didn't own a belt for a while, but I lost weight, and bought myself some fancy-schmancy designer jeans....then lost some more weight, so I wear a belt to hold them on until I can comfortably go down another size. It's a good motivating factor!

And, to be honest, I usually just tuck in the front around the belt, and leave the rest untucked.

You're skinny as a rail!!

That is the style now. It is how all the young designers do it on today's runways. Look at you fitting in with the "it" crowd...

Fashion and I have a long running feud....

Just think, even the designers are half tucking in tops to hide the muffin top all of these low-slung pants are giving even skinny super models!

Well I have spent the better part of the afternoon hooked on your PTR!!!!

It makes me laugh because we are very similar. My hubby is a PC geek as well, he plays World of Warcraft and any other games he can get his hands on!

I love your tattoo BTW! I am planning on getting a new Tinkerbell one (eventually), I have 6 tats and I love them!!!! I'd love to see pics of any other ink u have!

I think you will have an awesome time! I always tend to over spend for these trips (even with the ddp) but it is possible to have a budget! And I too am an obsessive over planner so i can relate!!!!!!

Awesome TR! Can't wait for more!

Hi Kat! It's just that tattoo, a "tramp stamp" and a little one behind y ear. I go for acreage, not quantity. LOL

I know we'll overspend, but I'm not too worried. We're saving up, nd the kids have about $50 in disney dollars from Xmas, so we'regoing to try to stick to that and maybe a few more things. Ah, the best laid plans...

$50 should cover a Turkey Leg and a "pin".

My kids haven't discovered pins yet.

I'm sure B's $50 will get her many stuffed animals and princess toys.

S will get a world of little things that he'll leave all over the hotel room and then the house.

And lots of mickey-head ice creams.

I'm surprised that 50 dollars still can be stretched at WDW...

I was surprised in June when I still found T-shirts under 20 dollars....

our external hard drive with all of the itunes stuff on it just ate itself. It will cost $1k to retrieve the info, so we are just calling it a loss. *sigh*

We have a lot backed up, but this is a pain!!

Kids had a melt down at the mall, too. B freaked at Buffalo Wild Wings because she didn' want to sit in her chair, and S wouldn't keep upw ith us in the VERY CROWDED mall.

This misbehaving is getting to be habit for them. We can't take them to restaurants anymore, everywhere we go, they want us to buy them things, when we watch anything that's not their show on TV, they yell and scream thast they want their shows, they fight an argue all the time, S can't eat with a fork or without using his hands on everything, they both have been breaking things in the house and trashing their rooms, etc etc etc.

I thought it was supposed to get better as the kids got older, not worse. At least in regards to public behavior and manners. I'm ready to kill them. I even told HHBG I am thinking about cancelling the Disney trip because they have been so rotten for the last few weeks. He talked me out of it, but they'd better shape up.

I just found your pre trippie, so I'm just going to join in at this point, if you don't mind

Wow! That sux!

When our kids are bad, we lock them in the closet with no food or water for a week or so. Seems to work just fine!
