Well we got back Saturday night. We had such a great trip (I posted a trip report in case anybody is interested). I am so depressed to be home! I did about as good as can be expected food wise. Tried to eat a salad everyday, drank my water and did not drink but one regular coke (my last night when I was so depressed to be leaving the next day). I also drank very little diet coke, I stuck to ice tea and water. I was amazed at how much easier it was to tour the park 20 pounds lighter. When we were there in January I was at my all time highest weight and I was miserable. My feet and knees were killing me, by the end of the trip I could barely make it on and off the bus due to the high steps. This time was much easier. I felt better and hurt way less. I kept somewhat motivated because of this and just kept thinking if I feel this much better with 20 pounds off, think how much better I will feel when I take off the rest of this lard! My major slip ups were Rainforest Cafe and the All Star Music food court (where I ate my last two WDW meals). I shared a total of three Mickey Bars, my all time record! And I didn't have any popcorn, churros and held myself to maybe 5 drinks total. One Mai Tai, one Ferris Wheel, three light beers and two rum and diet cokes. Wait a minute, thats 7 drinks. Still not bad for a 10 day trip. That was huge as when I drink I tend to lose my inhibition with food and get a what the he** attitude! I know I am up, I feel bloated but I am weighing in on Wednesday anyway. I am ready to be back on track and in fact since I got home have done pretty well.
Sunday:
Skipped breakfast and lunch, just felt gross, probably from the All Star Music food court lunch and the Del Taco I ate for dinner on Saturday. Had a grilled chicken breast, small helping of mustard potato salad, two pieces of buttery garlic bread, decent size salad with Italian dressing, two small pieces of Sarah Lee pound cake, strawberries and 60 oz of water and 48 oz of caffeine free herbal iced tea. Not a great day, but a start to getting back on track. Oh yeah, I also had some chips and salsa but not too many. I shouldn't have skipped breakfast and lunch, by the time dinner rolled around and my parents came over, I was starving and those chips were way too handy.
Monday:
Slim Fast for breakfast
Southbeach diet pizza for lunch
1 bag of cheese twists for a snack
1 Mandarin chicken salad from Wendy's for dinner
80 oz of water and one diet coke. Much better day. Took a 15 minute walk with the dog. Need to get back on exercising. I got a blister my very last day at WDW and it was hurting. But its better now, I walked in my
crocs tonight as they hurt my blister less than my Nike's. Should have done that yesterday instead of copping out with my blister sorrows!
Wish I could say its great to be home but its not! Oh well, it always takes me about a week to get over my WDW blues. I will try to catch up on journals tomorrow, I missed you guys!
:
! I am feeling really in control and just hoping to maintain that feeling over my vacation. I like the idea of skipping lunch and having at least one salad a day thing. I have been drinking 100 oz. of water per day for a few weeks now so I definitely want to keep that up. Thanks for all the advice and encouragement, it has definitely helped to keep me motivated! I will hopefully journal at least twice while I am in WDW. I just found out Pop Century has highspeed internet access now and I know Boardwalk does so that should allow me to journal some. I need to, I think it really helps keep me accountable. Thanks again everybody

I am so proud of you! 
Mine usually start the last day we are at WDW. Ya know how I "cure" my blues? Plan another trip!
