I know I don't post a lot, but I really do get alot of inspiration from the board as I silently lurk, but today I had to speak up about some recent F.A.R.T's

1)  I surprised my wife with a trip to Hollywood Studios & Disney World a couple of weeks ago.  And that was the FIRST TIME in at least 10 years that I was able to ride an airplane WITHOUT a seatbelt extender.  In fact, i had room to spare with the belt.  It felt awesome.  Unbelievable still.

2)  I was comfortable on every single ride/rollercoster/attraction.  I fit into each of the seats w/out a problem.  I have avoided theme parks for years because of my weight because I didn't want to be uncomfortable or embarassed while trying to fit into a ride.

3) AS OF THIS MORNING - - - 43 PRE-OP + 57 POST OP = 100 POUNDS GONE FOREVER!  I still cannot wrap my brain around 100 pounds gone.  At one point in my life I thought I'd always be 350+ pounds.  But to be in the 250's is amazing to me.  I still have a long way to go, but i'm so far from where I was, and I love it!!!!!

 That's awesome!  Way to go!  Oh, don't be a stranger.  Post anytime, the more the merrier.

Nice job! That must have been awesome!

BTW - I grew up in Syracuse, and I have a brother in Palmyra. Nice to see somebody from "home". Hope to see you around some more.
