) I get up early every morning around 6am and get a 45 min jog in before it gets too hot. My morning run in addition to all the walking in the parks allows me to eat pretty much what I want, I still try and choose the healthiest menu option, and not gain weight.
When I first started I was eating huge salads but as time went on and I got used to the portions the salads became much smaller. Both my wife and I were doing Nutrisystem and it was expensive. I did learn a lot about what and when to eat and the size portions I need to lose weight. I now do my own version of nutrisystem which is effective and much more economical.
)!! DH on the other hand will make himself sick (literally) to finish everything on his plate because that was the way he was brought up - can't waiste anything. I can't believe I still have so much longer to wait till Disney, but I guess its a good thing, it will give me time to lose more weight!!!
I love doing once a week weight ins rather than every day, several times a day. I've been doing my 2x 40 minute each treadmil walk/runs every day (other than this past Sunday) and now I'm doing arm weights twice a day too. It feels really great to really be doing something about my weight loss!! 
Mmmmm.....bags! YUM!
Hi all. I haven't had a chance to read through all the messages - I just sorta hopped along. But I want to join you. Can I?
I've been doing WW since last September. I didn't do it to look steamy hot for Mickey, since we just hatched the idea for the trip a few weeks ago. I've lost 48 pounds since I started, but haven't shed anything in the past month because I've just lost my focus. Last night I decided it was time to dig deep and get back on the wagon - I'd like another 20-25 pounds gone by the time we go to Disney in October. And whaddya know - I come here this morning, and one of the first things I see is a thread about Losing Weight For Mickey. Hot dog!
So - forgive me if this has been discussed at length in the thread. I'm leaning heavily on the Smart Ones meals to get my momentum going (it worked at the beginning). Do you have any favorites, or ones you recommend? I had the Chicken Mirabella yesterday, and it was really yucky, lol. I like all of the Mexican-ish ones, the enchiladas, the fiesta rice. And I've been sticking with mac and cheese. But since I'll be doing these meals 3-5 time/week for a month, I'm hoping for more variety without another unpleasant surprise.
Oh - Lean Cuisine, too. They do a stuffed rigatoni with veggies that's very nice!
