Hi!! I've been on here for about 3 weeks and have to say how great this site it!
My husband and I are headed to Jamaica in 45 days (but whos counting...) as a last hurrah before I start grad school until 2015. I want to lose a few pounds for a little extra confidence in those bathing suits! I wish I found this sooner and hope to stay motivated after vacation!!

    You will LOVE Caymen. We went there on our last cruise! BEAUTIFUL!!! My vacation clothes (bathing suit included) have been staring at me every time I walk into the closet! I have been tracking my calories religiously and plan on having a great time. Good luck and have a great trip. You will be looking awesome by June! :smile:

    Good luck with your CRNA program! It always makes hard work of dieting and exercising worth while when you have a reward in the near future. I'm going on a cruise in March of 2012 with my family and keep looking at all of my summer cloths and bathing suit thinking to myself I've got to lose weight to get into them. I have 101 days to go until vacation! Feel like I can get a lot accomplished in that time period.:smile:

    Mind if I ask where you are going in Jamaica? I'm thinking about going there in May, but haven't booked yet. I've been leaning towards Couples Negril, but its a little pricey. I'm planning to do an escape wedding-moon. My boyfriend & I have been together for 12 years & we are going to elope. I also hope to get that swim suit confidence by then.

    Don't you just love having a countdown to vacation?! I feel like it makes me more motivated and excited each day! 40 days...

    We are going to Secrets Wild Orchid... I think if you are flexible with the dates you can go, you can get a pretty good deal. We are going at the peak season (not our choice, had to fit it in between semesters) so we are paying way too much for what it is! I hope you go and have a great time! Great double motivator to get fit... wedding and a beach!!
