On June 10th Im flying to CA to visit a friend of mine from New Zealand (Yeah she too got suckered into marrying an American LOL). I am SOOOOOOOO nervous about whether I will fit in the seat, and so worried they will look at me and say I need to pay for 2 seats. Ive lost 76lbs, but still having serious anxiety over this.... Anyone flown recently? Im 5'10 & currently 262lbs, think Im gonna be ok? Are you guys gonna miss me? I probably won't have internet access for about a week!!! hehehe Darlene 338/262/170

Have a wonderful trip. You're about the same size as I was when I flew last and there was no mention of two seats or anything. Ask for the seat belt extender if you want to be extra comfy, and have a safe trip! Rebecca
