- Today is the seventh day of my January plan. I ... have lost 5 lbs. I have logged 14.5 miles run and walked, worked out five times separate from runs and walks, drank holy cow ounces of water (approx 80-100 ounces a day). I have not cheated on no dairy/no alcohol/no sugar/no grains. Not once. I also haven't had any beans and the only soy I had was a scoop of miso in my sauteed veggies one dinner. I had one hard moment (of three hours) one day where I really really wanted some damn m&ms, but I got through it. I'm currently blogging from an airport where I'm eating a steak salad (sadly with no cheese) and drinking Pellegrino and this life is not half bad. I can do this. FIVE POUNDS, GUYS.
- There was a kid that just wheeled by me on those wheelie shoes and holy hell, I hate those things.
- We are allowing our Disney passes to expire and I'm kind of sad about this. I'm having second thoughts. I know it's the right thing to do, we have other expenses we need to think about and other parks we can go to when we get the itch for theme parks but Disney has been such a big part of our lives for three years and I'll be really sad to let it go. Watch me buy every bit of theme park memorabilia between now and then. I do need a Magic Kingdom Starbucks mug. That much I know. We're trying to plan a last Disney resort weekend and H's pass expires 2/1 and the rest of us expire 3/9, so between the expiration dates I'm hoping for a day date or two with C and one day of the Flower and Garden Festival with S because it's his favorite. Sigh.
- You know what drinking 100 ounces of water in a day (plus 40 ounces of Pellegrino) gets you? A lot of trips to the bathroom. I hit the bathroom before I started my meal and I'm already dancing. So much pee. You're welcome for that.
- I read Bridge to Terebithia on the flight up this afternoon. I never got around to reading it when I was young and I knew it was sad but still I cried. I cried. I am always crying on planes, it seems.
Okay, I found it. Friday Five.

Dude, I am really impressed by your five pounds. And I've been wanting to re-read Bridge to Terabithia as an adult. I remember it being really sad.
I was going to say, after reading point one (and before reading point four): boy, I bet you're getting a lot of extra steps logged with trips to the bathroom. ;-) OMG, I can't even imagine how sad I would be to give up my AP, even if I knew it was the right decision for now. Maybe they'll do another one of the 3-Day Play Florida Resident deals at some point and you can get a fix, if you find you're needing it?
