greetings from Chicago-- WOW moment!

Ok... so I'm on vacation and I just had to steal a few minutes to share with all of you.  Last year my husband and I went to San Fran to visit a friend.  The entire trip was the LAST STRAW for me and it was then that I decided to have WLS for sure.  The plan ride was so uncomfortable and all the walking and site seeing took a toll on me and I couldn't even enjoy the stupid vacation.

Well... today we flew to Chicago and I am 120 pounds lighter.  We flew Southwest and I was very concerned about where I was going to sit on the plan with my husband.  Well... I had to sit in between some guy and my husband and I STILL HAD ROOM IN THE SEAT!  I was actually comfortable (except for my sore butt from sitting).  The seat belt fit and I had to tighten it... no seat belt extender for me!!!  

Everyday I'm reminded of how far I've come, but this was a really great wow moment for me 

Stay tuned... I'm about to reach onerland.... Just 1 pound to go!!!

Thanks for listening! 

what a great gift.  I am so afraid to fly....because of my size.

How wonderful, MoeMoe!!!!!  I'm so proud of you!!

And I'm starting to practice my "Onderland" dance for you - think Elaine from Seinfeld!!!!

Happy vacay!!

Hugs,

Tia

Oh WOW that is so great. I hate to try to think ahead when I am going to fly. All the worry about seats and asking for the seat belt extender. It is a pain in the butt..I am so happy for you and gald you are getting to enjoy your trip.
