Finally Home...

Hey Everyone!!! We are home from Disney World!! Yeah I had a great time. I was able to walk the parks without any trouble. I could have out walked my DH at the rate we were going. I rode rides without any trouble which were major wow moments for me! I rode Rocking Roller Coaster and I even had extra room in the seat and move around alot more than I remember with a roller coaster than I used to. This was such a major wow moment for me that I ended up crying after the ride because I was just so excited that I could do it without any trouble. It was definately one of the highlights of my trip. We had the dining plan which was nice but it was hard when we went to buffets because I barely ate anything but at least we got the dining plan for free. We ate at a Polynesian restaurant that had awesome food. They offered sugar free desserts for me which was nice, and I even requested lactose free stuff. They had a chef come right out to my table to talk to me. They were very accomodating to me. I never dumped once with trying the new food. We dressed up for the Not so Scary Halloween Party on Friday night and the pictures are hilarious. Here is a link to our website where you can check them out!! http://jeffandsuzanne.spaces.live.com/ Suzanne

Suzanne, Welcome home! How fun to be in Disney World. I really can't wait to go back again. Maybe I'll make that one of my goals after I get this weight off!!! I understand how great it would be to not have to worry about fitting in a ride, and being able to walk, and walk, and walk around the park. I know I couldn't even do it now. And I've avoided amusements parks for a while now. I used to always go and always managed to fit in rides, but the last time I was at Marine World and got in roller coaster that turned upside down. It had the kind of bars that came down from over your head to hold you in. Mine didn't go all the way down, like it was supposed to. I was so embarrassed. But the ride attendants didn't notice, so I said nothing and just sat there. I was just praying that I wouldn't fall out of this thing when it flipped over. Now, how stupid is that??? I was too embarrassed to get off, so I was willing to take my chances!!! Dumb, dumb, dumb. Anyway, since then, I've been too afraid to go to an amusement park, fearing I wouldn't fit in a ride, and wanting to avoid any embarrassment. Anyway, I'm glad you had such a great time and the pictures are wonderful!!!!

Thanks for the kind words. It is an amazing feeling to be able to go on those rides again like I used to love to when I was a teenager. After you lose the weight you will be able to enjoy everything again and have fun I am sure of it. Good Luck with the weight loss. Suzanne
