Monorail Drink-A-Thon

[PatsGirl]

I find just the opposite -- the more I drink, the less I want to eat. Lately I'm finding that if I have three glasses of wine or a couple of drinks, I'm not hungry. Better yet, I'm losing a couple of #s of month with my "new diet". Of course, this only happens sporadically, but I gotta wonder what would happen if I decided to do this 3 or 4 nights a week. I mean, other than than the authoritiestaking away my children

OK, now I've got to go buy some strawberries.....

Oh yeah ... it's wicked good. The Malibu adds a sweet, coconut flavor and the Meyers ... well you know . Where the heck is my husband with that drink?!?

You know, that happens to a lot of people. It also happens to me too. But ... something in the alcohol slows down the weight loss. I'm on a low-carb diet and there a few carbs in wine, but I still don't see a budge unless I'm on the wagon.

Welcome!

 

[PatsGirl]

Robin, by saying "welcome" can I now consider myself a full-fledged LOTW? Because I don't wanna use the term unless I'm sure I've earned it. Of course, I am NEVER on the board without a glass of chardonney; uh, now you know whey me kiybording iz sooo bad. Brenda

This "club" just keeps defining who I am! I also find that my "smart" calorie intake is affected by alcohol! I have to decide...and I'm sure you can all help me...is it worth it???

I leave for Disneyland tomorrow. Although the LUSH opportunities are limited, I plan to report on possibilities for West Coast outings!

 

[wildernesslodgelover]

Hey Patsgirl-I wish that would happen to me. I have friends that have a glass or two of wine and skip dinner. Now, of course that is not healthy, but hey, if it works AND you get to have your nightly wine, well, I would do it if I could!--Welcome to the LOTW!

Hi Disneyholic! Have fun at DL!

 

[lillygator]

WLL - alcohol makes me have the munchies too...I am trying to fight that....

The evening of the 30th would be best for me and DH, but the 1st would work also.

 

[ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!]

oooh a LoTW meeting, how exciting!

 

[lynn71092]

The 30th is best for me also.

 

[maine_jennifer]

COOL! The 30th it is. Guess we can decide on a time as it gets closer or should we decide that now, too? I'll be arriving that day at 10am, so anytime in the afternoon/evening is fine with me. What a way to start a vacation!!

Evening will probably be best, because I am not sure if DH will be able to get off of work that day. If not, we won't be leaving Tampa until about 4:00, so we would be arriving at WDW around 6:00 after fighting traffic. At that point I am sure we will be ready for a few drinks!

 

[lynn71092]

The earlier the better.
I'll be arriving around 10:30 am and will probably go directly to Pop.
But since I will have been up since around 4:30 am the earlier the better, before I poop out!! Wait, since I'll be solo I might even be able to take a nap!! Ok, probably not, I'll be too excited!!

As soon as I can find out DH's work plans, I'll let you know, I would actually prefer to do it a little earlier too if we can get there. If not, we may have to meet you along the way!

 

[ctrabada]

aidensmom, lynn, maine_jen, I'm so totally bummed that I cannot join you... I'm leaving the 29th.... maybe I can convince DH to stay a couple more days, but I don't have enough DVC points and I don't want to borrow...

Sounds like we're both on the same mindframe. I'll also be up around 4:30, arriving around 10, and traveling solo. LOL

Any time is good for me, early - late, whatever. I have no problems taking naps

ctrabada - that'd be great if you could join us, but we understand if you can't. Just have a great time and take notes for everyone!

 

[AJR]

I'm taking a 2 day 1 night trip to OKW to participate in the DVC members PI party on a tuesday night. Prior to going to PI I would like to do a drink a thon in the PO, OKW, and SSR area. Any suggestions I usually do the BW thing and I have not been in that area for quite a few years.

That's a great rate! FWIW, the DVC discount is only good on DVC resorts.
