First trip since WLS......Vegas here I come!
Hello All.....
I'm a little nervous about traveling. I love to travel, but haven't traveled anywhere, unless by car, in over 3 years. I've lost 68 lbs since surgery, but I'm still a bit embarrassed to be flying. I'm leaving for a friends birthday, on 2-17 to go to Vegas. My work, also requires me to be there, so the vacay is extended. I just feel a little weird still about being a bigger person on an airplane. Any advice??
