It was a long 25 hour journey, but we made it. The 25 hours there didn't seem as long for some reason. I will say, if you ever have the opportunity to fly on Emirates Air take it! All US based airlines can take some lessons. We were well fed, well cared for and wanted for nothing on either 15 hour flight! They brought us warm wet cloths to wash our hands and face, real silverware, free wine and beer with meals, 2 full meals, plus a pizza snack along with several fresh fruit and candy bar breaks in between. Awesome. Oh yeah, we were in economy! I can only imagine the service in Business or First Class.

The trip was amazing. I have tons of pics. My husband will download them to his website later this week and I will let you know the website to check them out.

Oh yeah, I left at 166 and came back at 163! I had trouble finding clean clothes that fit this morning. I was right on the edge with most of my work pants. I will need a few new pairs. Oh happy day!

Start weight 226. Surgery weight 218 on 1/6/12
