Leave me if you can...

[R_Judy]

And leave you all I did. I have been gone about a year. In that time I have had 2 kids get married. My husband retired after 27 years in the Air Force. We moved to Orlando. I got a job at WDW.

Whew - It has been a busy year. I also quit my diet and exercise. I fell in love with 3 pound bags of dark chocolate M&M's. I have never been heavier. Soooooooooooo I am ready to get back to business. My husband and I have decided not to diet but rather do a complete lifestyle change. The cabinets were cleaned out a few weeks ago. We joined Bally's again. I hired a personal trainer for 10 sessions to get me back in a good routine. But what I really need is the support of my Dis friends. I realised that you are as much a part of my program as everything else. I missed you guys. Even better - I may be able to see you when you come to WDW. I guess I can't join the "walk to Disney" challenge since it is only 21 miles. I will find other things to participate in like the exercise programs. I also need to rejoin the under 200 club - my first goal.

Here is the ugly truth...

Starting 5/23/05 225/160 mini goal 199

Thanks for letting me air all my laundry - I feel better and more motivated already.

Hey R_Judy, maybe you can't commit to the Walk to Disney Challange by walking to Disney World since it's only 21 miles. BUT - You could figure the mileage to Disneyland or any other destination, Disney or not, and start walking. Good Luck!

Welcome back and WOW you have had a lot going on. I have not been around regularly, but I am back now too. You are right that this is a great place to get the encouragement that we need. Way to go on cleaning out the cabinets, that is something that I have got to do, thanks for the reminder. Way to go and good luck!!!!

Judy, your life the past year sounds a lot like mine, only I didn't get a job at WDW, DH & I just got AP's! You'll have to let me know where you work! We'll stop in & see you. We are in one park or another every 10 days or so. More often if I can arrange it!

I've only gained a few of my hard lost lbs, and DSD isn't getting married until Nov but we seem to have a lot in common. I'd be happy to be part of your support system & have you be part of mine.

BTW, I'm walking to Disneyland because WDW is so close. It's going to take me a while to get there, though!

 

[R_Judy]

Thank you all so much!!! There is nothing more important than a great support system.

Perfect match - I drive a bus at Disney. There are almost 2000 of us but I am the only one named Judy.

Mom of dwarfs - Heyyyyyyyyyy, I remember you to. How have you been?? and how are the kiddo's?

Melanie, Tammy, Purrrrrfecta, Intense and tiggercheer - thank you all for your support.
