disneydream06: (Diet Scale)
[personal profile] disneydream06
I got home from Florida last evening.

One of the first things I did was hop on the scale to check on the damage.

Drum roll please...........

I gained .4 of a pound. :p

Color me shocked.
Of course a huge portion of that small amount probably came from dehydration. LOL...
OMg, was it HOT down there. I sweated like a stuck pig, or whatever that old saying it. :p

I ate really well the first few days, but didn't eat as much as I thought I would once I got to Disney. I did have to yummy sit down meals.
One was at the 50s Prime Time Diner at Hollywood Studios. I had a yummy meatloaf, mashed potatos and gravy, and green beans and carrots, and a Peanut Butter and Jelly milkshake. The milkshake was actually quite good, although there was mostly a peanut butter flavor and no jelly taste.
The other sit down meal was at Be Our Guest at Magic Kingdom. It's based on the Beast's Castle from Beauty and the Beast. I had a turkey sandwich with a mustard sauce, french fries, and two YUMMY cupcakes. One was the Master's cupcake with the "grey stuff" for frosting. The "grey stuff" is delicious. lol... The other cupcake was a strawberry creme cheese. YUMMY...

Oh lord yes.

I'll post about it at some point later but suffice it to say for now that there were tears.

I couldn't have done it alone.

There are some happier pics up already.

I think it was a version of buttercream frosting.

I KNEW you weren't going to gain anything but not due to dehydration. When someone is on vacation, they generally lose weight from all the activity balancing out the yummy food.

I would love to do the Be Our Guest thing!

I was lucky to get a reservation in there. I didn't look until a month or two before my trip. :o

Glad you made it back unscathed and in much better shape than expected!

You are right though, if you are going to Disney World, you have to allow yourself to spend at least a week at each portion of the park.

My family went there back in ??? 1983-84-ish? Started in Magic Kingdom and did all of the adult rides, then went to Epcot Center. Had the time of my life! Was slightly disappointed that that big Sphere building at Epcot was closed for refurbishment though, and we didn't have enough time to visit all of the countries. Now days, there is soooooooo much more to Disney World than back in the eighties...

Sooooooooooo much to do. :o
Were the other two parks not even open yet back then? I am guessing Animal Kingdom isn't that old, but not totally sure about Hollywood Studios.

The only parks that were there back then were Magic Kingdom and Epcot Center. SeaWorld was there, but that's not Disney...

So much to see and do, even with all the construction that's going on. Gotta admit that is quite annoying. :(

wowwwwwwwwwwwww Well done!!! (and welcome back!! I missed you!!!!!!!!!!!)

hm.. 2 sit down meals? Hold on... did you eat standing up all the time or whut?

From: [identity profile] thespian15.livejournal.com
By sit down meal, I mean you had a waitor/waitress taking care of you. Other places you go and pick out your meal, get it on a tray and then go find a place to sit and eat. Then other things you buy and walk around and eat. :p
