What are you eating on Monday?

I haven't had one since Monday. I decided that cold turkey would be the best method for me because I don't have the self control to not smoke the whole pack. I do have to get gas tonight though and that means a major temptation to buy them so wish me luck. Jan

Ok--- high 289 day of surgery 274 last week (either 224 or 223, I can't remember) this week 222 all together: -67 pounds Can you all please address me now as "Little Miss Tiny Pants" At 222 pounds, I am petite, a mere slip of a girl.....! Cathy

Just a "ditto" to what Dx has posted...I dreaded flying, now I'm anxious to get my next one booked because I know by then there will be no more "extenders" needed! The majority of the time I was like Dx and just took control of the situation, informed the attendent in a pleasent manner..."I'm going to need your extender when you get a moment"...MOST were kind, subtle, and accomodating in delivering it to my seat and I'd say most around me never knew I "had to use one". There's always the ONE though..made a huge stink out of all the trouble!! Enough that I'll never fly Northwest again, no matter what the costs. I also would always swap for the aisle seat, gives you that ability to "stretch" a big, move at least one leg around a bit..

Dan When flying if at all possible I travel by Southwest Airlines and book two seats. With an extender it is as confortable as we can be. After the flight you are entitled to a refund on the extra seat unless they had completely sold out the plane prior to boarding. 90% of the time I get the extra seat refunded. It is a hassle but for the super morbidly obese like me it works better than anything else I have found. Steve

Thank you so much for all the advice. I did get some good news, for me anyway. I traded e-mails with our corporate travel agent and she is booking 2 seats for me on all my flights. My company goes to great lengths for being known as a fair and diverse employer, it goes well with our mission to provide great customer service. It's really a tremendous relief to know that I won't be inconviencing someone else. As far as the flyer's thrombosis, I was aware of that trouble. After a long trip I took about a year ago I came back with both feet and ankles tremendously swollen, my doctor insisted on getting an ultra-sound of my legs that very day. Fortunately they didn't find anything, and diuretics took care of it. The flight from Seattle to San Francisco is only 2 hrs, the flight from Seattle to Denver is 2 and a half hours. I should be OK. Thanks again, Dan
