BACK FROM MOUSEFEST!!!!

Hello friends!!!

We are back from MouseFest - and oh man was it an wonderful experience!! I'll be giving a detailed trip report with pictures as the next week or two go on - day by day - kinda like Maui. Including all the food we ate!!!

I want to address two things real quick: 

1) December goals. I'm with Rae and Jeff. December is a maintenance month. I KNOW I gained weight at MouseFest - I don't know exactly how much, but it wouldn't surprise me if it were in the order of 8-10 pounds. I did walk a lot. I did make healthier choices. But what i forgot was my sweet tooth! And with dessert at EVERY MEAL - I'm sure it did me in. Not an excuse - and certainly not a reason to give up - I'll spend the rest of the month working on getting back to where I was or BETTER - so I can start 2008 with a huge push!

2) Hellos. I cannot begin to tell you how wonderful it was to meet all of you that were at MouseFest - but special mention HAS to go to Rae, Eric, Jeff, Kate, Deb, Meg, Glenn, and of course, Bryan. You guys are some of the most wonderful friends a guy has ever been lucky enough to have. And Rae - Team Voice is going strong! I can't wait to see what we're capable of! :)

Okay - until tomorrow when the trip report begins (official weigh-in *cringe* on Monday) remember that the 2009 half-marathon is getting closer every day!

MAIN STREET AWAITS!

    Yes I must agree with the
    desserts.But {there is always a but} you could just had half of them instead of all.{I know that's hard}
    Ok I can go with a couple a pounds gain BUT 8-10!!!!!
    Holy Cats!!!!
    Did you flick Jiminy off your shoulder??
    It was wonderful to meet you and Amber.:)
    So how many pins did you end up with?? How many do have now??

    Man you must have flushed JC down the toilet. 8-10!!! Where is the tread mill!!!

  2. 8-10 pounds in a week and a half?? That's like 30000+ extra calories! Did you eat the whole pie/cake? I hope you're wrong on your weigh in, but if not, that will set you back at least two months on your weight loss goal (based on previous results). You need to find some willpower somewhere!

    It was especially nice meeting you and Amber for the first time at Mousefest.Amy and I both had an amazing time.It was kinda like hanging out with long time friends in a way.

    And I still can't believe all fo the new friends we made while we were down.The AllAbouttheMouseketeers are truly the greatest!

    I hope your weigh in goes better than you're thinking.December is a maintain month for me as well since the half marathon is exactly one month away.I don't want to overtrain but at the same time I know I can't slack off on my training either.
    So here's to us both reaching our December goals...

    And I'll see you all at the finish line in 2009....GO TEAM VOICE!!!

  4. I put on 3 lbs. Hopefully the snow and ice removal over the past couple days will help with that. I did get a little over 5 miles on the old treadmill today.
    I was very happy to meet you and Amber as well as so many others.
    09' should be quite the reunion. Outside of the half marathon run we should all agree on a special meet. Perhaps a celebration Dinner at one of the resorts. Which if we decide to do, we should book at the 180 day mark. What do you think?
    I received an e-mail from Disney today that the 09 race weekend will be Jan 08-11. Registration will open shortly after the finish of the 08 weekend.

    Catch you later...
