Hi ladies
people say that i am mickey obsessed! Thank you for starting the group Meg!

I had my son 2 yrs ago and still have not returned to my pre-pregnancy weight and far from goal weight.
pre pregnancy - 165
after preg - 202
now - 166 (after 2 months of working out and eating healthy)
goal - 135

Oh good question... I'll back out as well... I'm in ny

AWESOME!

My family and I LOVE Disney World. I saw this group and was ecstatic. We are vacationing at the World in 2 months and on the dining plan. Desserts with every meal. UGH! I'll need some motivation and tips on that .

I have fluctuated 20 pounds for the past 15 years. Currently I am 156 at 5 foot 5 size 12 and lifting weights. No weight loss but a few inches here and there gone. Supposedly, The New Rules of Lifting for Women is not to lose weight but to change the body. Several women has changed their body without losing weight (you can find them on the forum) and look great!

My baby is 7 years old. It's time to get this 20 pounds off for good. I want to do it in a good way. Eating way under deficit and running like crazy , I lose weight. As soon as I start eating, it comes back. I am at a loss of what to do.

Recently I bought a body fit media. So I am excited to know how much we do walk. It seems we walk Animal Kingdom and Epcot the most. The last time we went was first week of January. The menus hadn't changed much since the previous year . Apples or carrots are an option over fries which is a plus since my seven year old or I don't care to eat. We will if we "have" to. We are hoping to get more fruit as a dessert and use our snacks for that indulgence treat every day.

Love this idea!

My husband is one of those "few" who was actually BORN in Orlando. I used to live there. We just got back from our first "big" Disney family vacation and I kept hiding behind the camera and avoiding the photo pass.

Knowing my marriage is over is one thing, but I guess it just clicked that I'm never with my kids because I hate photos of myself. And since it looks like we're going to make this an annual thing, it's a perfect countdown/time span to lose weight by.

The meal plan's a killer, but let me tell you having just been they do have some healthy options. The desserts? I just made sure I had some, and they do have "bite size" portions of the larger versions at the buffet. I made sure to treat myself some, especially on the big park days, but they had some great options. And considering it's a "treat time" anyways (you spend the whole year and then some saving for it), combining it with the walking, go for it!

I had heard someone complaining about the prices, which frankly for out-of-state people is horrific (close to $100/adult, which my now-10-year-old daughter now counts as), and someone replied to him, "Well what does Disney sell?" And the lady thought about it and didn't seem to know what the guy wanted as the answer. He replied "Disney sells memories. Pure and simple." And that hit me because I was/am avoiding memories because of my weight. So here's to a trimmer, more theme-park ready hot body in 2013...well if the world's still here

Meryl, I am not sure if you are in to this kind of thing but I do a photopass share. The disboards.com at one time allowed people to talk and join in shares but the adm. decided no money should change hands. SOOO, there's a group on facebook. If you are interested I will let you know the group. I have joined many shares and it has never been a problem.

Coupon, I hide behind my kids in pictures. My huge saddlebags stick out though. Seems like when I lose weight , it comes from my face, chest and stomach. Never my bottom or thighs. We can do this. I gather your name is because you coupon? I do!! Since we moved to MS a couple years ago, I don't have the stores available as before though. So my stockpile is fairly non existent.

I do coupon I actually don't have a massive stockpile because a lot of our stores limit 4 like coupons, but I try to do the gift card deals at Target a lot (which you can combine with coupons) and CVS ECB's/gift cards. I actually put them in envelopes and use them for Christmas/other occasions.

I'm hoping to really start losing once I get my work caught up and can get back to working out/going to the gym. Want to look like all the other thin moms at the parks

Hi, I am Mary 40 and homeschool my 7 year old daughter.

I'm little confused. Is this group only for moms who live in the Orlando area? If so, I'm a tad bit away--10 hours. :laugh: Let me know and I 'll graciously back out.

HI!! I'm a local BUT I also homeschool my kids too

Hi everyone! Hoping we can revive this thread! I am a HUGE Disney fan and we are headed back for our 6th family trip this September. I am hoping that I can finally take pics in Disney and be happy with what I see. Trying to lose 45 pounds before the trip. Anyone else going in Fall 2013??
