I just got back from WDW! I had a nice vacation before my upcoming surgery 5/27. My husband (who by the way is postop & has lost 125lbs since 10/03) and I have visited there about once a year since we were married 5 years ago and this time my husband remarked on how much easier it is for him to get around the parks now than in the past. He even flew, his first time on an airplane, to Orlando. We were never able to fly before because of his and my size. We also got to ride more of the attractions. He outwalked me everywhere we went and he remarked that he didn't even break a sweat anymore:)

What a great question! Disney World brings back painful memories...I went the year before I had surgery. Is it just me, or do overweight people get hotter than the skinny people do? I felt like I was going to die from heat exaustion everytime I got out of the car...and the long lines! UGH! I think this summer I'll be spending a lot of time working out and laying out by the pool. No string bikini for me tho! Kimberly (6 mos post op Lap-RNY; now a happy 165lbs!)

If I wore Daisy Dukes, I would be able to fly -- my inner thighs could be wings!! But seriously, I just started a rowing class and I plan to spend the summer rowing, hiking and relaxing.

I bought tank tops for the first time in 20 years and now can actually wear them OUTSIDE the house for people to see me in!!

My trip to DisneyWorld in 2001 was what made me start looking into WLS. I had a rotten time, all because of my weight. Well, I went back in november 2003 and had the best time ever!! I hope you have a GREAT time too. Put on those daisy dukes and have a blast. You deserve it! ~Sidney~ Open RNY 10-23-02 down 140+ and under goal

SUNDRESSES! That's what's got me all excited about this summer. I can wear them and not look like a beach ball! Also, I'd love to get one of those polo (or izod) shirt dresses that are so cute. I think there is also a water park in my near future. (wouldn't be caught dead there before!)

I have lost 160 pounds and I am going to Hawaii! I have 3 swimsuits to wear and I might even try to Hula. I went to Disney Land last year in July after my April surgery and had a blast. My DH and 8 year old son had a hard time keeping up with me. Heck, I dont know how they will keep up with me in Hawaii. I hope everyone has a GREAT DAY. Brenda Cooper

I just got back last night from Albuquerque. I walked all over Old Towne wearing cute dresses and sandals and even a toe ring and anklet! No more stretchy T-shirt outfits and orthopaedic shoes for me! I'm going to San Diego in 3 weeks and plan to drag my hubby all over Balboa Park and the Zoo. Life is good!
