True enough. Though I call Florida "Gods Waiting Room" because of all the old folks the retire there. But there are certainly a whole lot of obese people as well.
Yeah, but it's mostly the tourists there that are obese... Haven't seen so many florida people that are.
The first time i went to Florida i lost weight and that was with eating a lot of junk food. But i love some of the food over there. Thats one thing i would be frightened of, to gain a lot of weight staying in america for so long.
So my Pre-Disney Diet has been fairly successful! I've lost 10 pounds AAANNNDDD I bought my first ever two piece bathing suit today. I bought TWO of them.
yeah, congats Tracey! I've just lost 2 pounds in 2 weeks and I'll have a wedding next week, I bought my dress 5 months ago, in this 5 months I gain 10 pounds :-S and it is raining all the time so I'm also eating all the time lol and the fitness centers are soooo expensive. Tracey, what did u do too loose 10POUNDS?!?! ;-)
that is so great, i wish i would loose weight before disney... so i can go with you into the swimming pool, now it would be embarissing with my belly :/
Ive started my pre-disney diet as well! hehe Last time i lost some weight before i went and then i lost a bit more over there but then when i came home i put it all back on. So i started doing the cambridge diet which is a very low cal diet. 4 shakes a day, 2-4 litres of water, and no food. I hate not having the taste and sensation of eating but so far i've lost 8lbs since friday. Gotta be careful though when i do start eating again that i eat properly so i dont put it all back on.
I am hoping to get fit when I am over there as I don't have that much of an opportunity here but I will be walking so much there which should help. I am also hoping that I won't be eating quite as much over there as it will be so hot and I can't eat that much when I am really hot.
it's not good to stop eating, because after our diet we'll gain much more weight than before. I've joined a gym yesterday and I'm trying to go there every day hehe it won't be easy. everything hurts lol I can't move now!!! so, we could try to meet there and do some exercise all together, like swimming, gym and go for walking. together it would be easier!?! and yes, I agree, if it is hot there I can't eat that much too. but I'll be working in QSF&B so the first month will be hard for me, because I will have to taste (?) everything ;-)
i lost weight whilst on my program i went out three dress sizes bigger than i am now!!! and that was just in six months, however i did work fantasmic/ parade/ hsm so had to walk around Hollywood studios alot.
I have lost 9lb so far! Yay! Aiming to lose another 4-6lb before I leave - in 19 days! It's great to hear how people have been inspired to lose weight for this! My parents are coming out for 3 weeks whilst I'm there and my dad has now lost half a stone and is well on his way to being near his recommended weight when they come out - I'm so proud of him! Looking forward to this phenomenon of losing weight whilst I'm there too! I*fingers crossed*
Tiddelypom! I'm excited too. I have tried to accept the fact that no matter what shape/size you are EVERYONE wears two piece bathing suits. I just need to be confident in my body enough to be comfortable doing that. It also helps that my belly is a beautiful colour. I'm turning into a bronze goddess. AKA sleeping in a solarium before I leave. haha
Another great way to lose wait over there, is to just stand outside, preferably in the sun.. the kilo's will just melt off... literally... it's so damn hot..(it's winderful )
Ha ha. Well, you definitely have that one up on me. I'm pastey white and the only way that's going to change is with tan in a can (well... in a moisturizer). I've already bought both face and body self tanning lotion so I can still slather on the sunscreen (I burn REALLY easily and then go back to white) and still look tanned!
Arrrgh me too I am so pasty! 2lbs off my pre-Disney target weight and 9lbs off my overall target!! xx
Well done tiddlypom. Yeh I am a nice pasty colour as well and got burnt when out in the garden today as well so I have a nice contrast of white and red - always a good look.
I got weighed on friday and have lost 19lbs in two weeks. So if i lose another 9lbs in the next 2 weeks then thats 2 stone in a month. Im loving it haha. Except not loving the whole not eating thing.
