Hey TotallyAngelic, how about getting a pre-cruise weight loss group started in January? I need someone to motivate me to stick to it. My wonderful family is of no help when it comes to losing weight. Certainly we aren't the only two wanting to lose a few pounds before the cruise. Anyone else interested?

Sounds good to me, I'm in.

. . . I fell through a tote of latex glue yesterday and took 2 hours and about a gallon of rubbing alcohol to get it off and my foot is still sticky. YUCK.

'Dude, be careful out there. Glad you're okay.

That sounds like a great idea - I am sure it will be a great motivation and support to be doing this together. I was thinking about joining a local
weight-watchers group, but maybe this will be more appropriate - as we will all be aiming for the same goal! It will have to be after Christmas - as I know for sure I have 4 parties / meals in the pre-Christmas period and then the Christmas period itself. January is always a good time to start!

Hello everyone!! We are already on your Roll-Call as I was planning on convincing DH to book this while on board our October 27,2007 cruise and....
He needed absolutely NO CONVINCING at all!! He was in line to rebook before I even asked LOL I think he may even get his own user ID, after having so much fun with our Dis friends last week!!! I will be finishing up my trip report this week, stop by and take a peak, I hope to CUOP and join in on the fun. I look forward to chatting with everyone.

Looking forward to our next sea adventure!!!!

I think we would be lucky to change ports. We were on the first cruise to return to Castaway Cay after Frances and Jeanne went through in September '04. It was depressing. Even a year later in November '05, Castaway Cay still wasn't 100% herself. Wow...I can't belive it will be it will be 3 years for me without a CC visit!

For those interested in the weightloss thing, how about meeting up on the community board right after New Years. Whoever posts over there first could let everyone over here know. Would that work?

Thanks for the welcome Big Ben and Hello to mommy2777 We are also from Florida, Lakeland that is, about 20-30 minutes from the world. This will be our second cruise. We just got off the Magic last week. I have one DD age 9 when we cruise and DH will be celebrating his 40th birthday aboard. Other family members may come along also but only my MIL is booked so far.

Can't wait to cruise again.

 

[TotallyAngelic]

Imagine living in Florida - do you realise how lucky you are!

Welcome to the cruise mommy2777 !

 

[iamdaisyduck]

We will be joining you too. We booked it when we were on our first Disney cruise in May 2007. So what is on the agenda so far? I guess we will all have to bring costumes! Glad to be coming aboard with all of you!! Being part of these message boards for our last cruise made the cruise that much more fun.

 

[mommy2777]

Thanx for the welcome, you all seem so nice, i hope to be able to actually meet some of you. I heard that there will be a costume contest, so yes bring to costumes! I cant wait! And the weight loss idea sounds great but what are all of you doing to lose weight? i cant seem to shed these unwanted pounds!
