Last year I went on a trip of a life time, I had WLS almost 6 years ago lost 250 pounds and have gained some back,

I fit in the airline seat without an extender, planes are different.  Flight was over 10 hours long and had a bulk head seat

where the arms didn't come up, it was tight but I made it! I could not have ever done that without WLS.  How thankful.

WLS has given me my life back, I've gained some weight back but I trying to get back on the exercise wagon started

a group support here in Salt Lake City, hoping to get a few people to join me to help me get back on track.

Topic: RE: Off this week on our Disney Christmas cruise!

This would be fun, I have been on some trips to the Tenn. mountains around March and April. Maybe doing something like this would be a little bit more affordable for some. I'm still not sure about my finances, because I'm still not working. I will have to see what I get back on my taxes, but it is gone too because I need some work on my house and my truck.

I will have to see what happens.

I would love to do an OH cruise. I tried to get one together last year. I had a few nibblers, but no bites.  If you get it together, count me in. 


How was the pricing for Disney? I checked them before and they were pretty expensive. Were you able to get a deal?


Where are you staying in Port Canaveral. There were some good park and cruise hotel rates listed on cruisecritic.com.

Leaving on Tuesday for Daytona Beach for 2 nights on the beach and then heading to Port Canaveral to jump aboard the Disney cruise ship for the Bahamas and Castaway Cay! We LOVE it!

Since losing 78 pounds, I have found a new passion along with my family, snorkeling! We jump on a catamaran and go to a secluded island and make a day of it!

Wish all of you could join us! That would be so much fun! Hey there's and idea! Let's plan a trip and everyone go somewhere! We could give a years notice so everyone can go! What do you think LaShelle? I am sure you have a great travel agent tucked away somewhere!

Good idea, LaShelle!  I used to be on the road a lot when I consulted and gave up the job and a mucho dinero salary due to problems with traveling while obese.  Now I am merely overweight (& close to normal BMI) and just might look for another job that involves travel.  Of course pleasure travel wasn't all that much fun,either.  I'm hoping to learn a lot and sharing what I learn as I get back to living instead of just getting by.
