LynneB 0 Posted April 2, 2008 I am so proud of myself from this weekend...I made it thru 3 days of every single park at Disney World and I never ate anything at the parks!! I came back to our cabin at Ft Wilderness to eat my healthy stuff I brought w/ me. Passing by the turkey legs, all the wonderful smelling pretzel & churro stands & especially my weakness...the Confectionary!! I LOVE Disney fudge & choc covered hard pretzels there!! But I did it!! I wore my bodybugg & it showed I walked 9.5 miles during the 3 days! My legs are killing me!! My preop diet started yesterday & we were still at Ft Wilderness, my entire family decides to go to the most amazing Breakfast buffet, I look so forward to going to this buffet everytime we are there so I knew it was gonna be tough, but I couldnt skip it since my entire family never gets together except for these trips. It was so shocking to me that, I was able to get thru it! I did have 1 bite of a mickey mouse waffle (my FAV!) & it tasted so gross! I dont know if anyone has been to this buffet, but the bacon is to die for! I had 1 small corner off a piece & almost threw up. The grease after so many weeks of watching my carbs was just sickening. So funny how our taste for carbs changes when we eat high Protein for awhile! So I drank my fat free milk and my orange juice and I was proud of me!! LOL The waiter noticed I hadnt eaten & asked if I was ok. When I told him why, he told me he had lapband surgery a yr ago & he was 380lbs before surgery & he was down to 170lbs & he looked GREAT! When he brought the check he had taken off the $25.00 for my food without even asking if we wanted the charge removed. (We never would have asked) The best part, I came home from Disney World 5 lbs lighter than when I left!! Not many ppl can say that!! I usually gain at least 5lbs when I go there!! Off to change my ticker!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sfeiner 2 Posted April 2, 2008 Lynn, .You did so well. I think It's cool that your waiter had LB and took your "meal" off the bill. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carol422 0 Posted April 3, 2008 Lynne, I too have noticed that certain things do not taste the same. You did an awesome job coming home 5 pounds lighter....Congratulations! I loved Disney when we went there so many many many years ago. I've already told my husband I want to go back with the grandkids in a few years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jaymie72 0 Posted April 4, 2008 Ok you did way better than I did. I also just got back from Disney and ate like a normal person. I cannot say that I overate but I did not watch what I ate. We had 5 days there and I believe it when you say you walked 9.5 miles in 3 days. I did not however gain anyweight so the walking must have helped. Good job to you!! I wish I would have had more self control. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
