We don't own a ton of points just bought in last year and got the precious year's points as well so we were able to bank some this summer. It is also just DH and DS (3) and I so a studio fits us well. I am sure I will do some damage to my weight loss, however, I know I can jump back on when I get home. I plan to make some smart choices and stick to protein more than carbs and down a ton of water.
We will be there June 24th - July 5th so if anyone else is there during that time and wants to meet and say hi, that would be great.

I had my fill and am ready to get back on track to meet my goal. I can tell that after a few days of splurging it will not be an easy task.
Sounds like you're having a great time!! Good for you starting back on IP in the morning! YOU CAN DO IT!!!!

Yup, that's always been our proven strategy! Head to the parks at rope drop, enjoy the line free rides for a few hours, then head back to the pool!! Works like a charm!! I have heard the dining plan is very economical, we just can't take advantage because our son doesn't do well at Restaurants. We'll be doing most of our eating back at the resort. Of course those "white russians" by the pool will be VERY difficult to avoid!!

DH and I will be staying in a studio in May. From what I've read on my Disney boards (yes, I'm Disney crazy), the three of you will be perfect in a studio! Plus, they're in the process of reversing the kitchen sinks into the bathroom, along with some other minor "fix its" here and there. By the time you get there the changes should definitely be complete!!
I like your strategy....we may do the same!! We always do LOTS of water anyway, but will really try to do our best and make smart choices! 27 days to take off some more lbs before we take off!! Woot woot!
