It is so much easier to fly when you have dropped a few sizes. Looking forward to California and the conference in October!!

I'll just say that i fly a lot, and losing the weight was like getting a free first class upgrade - for LIFE!

I fly several times per year and I still haven't gotten over it. There's SO much slack in the belt and I have to pull the tray table CLOSER to me. Mind blowing.

I never infringed. I just bought 2 seats. People can talk bad about Southwest ALL they want, but adore them. They will refund your 2nd seat if the flight isn't oversold. I never had them not refund me :)

Now, I just need 1 seat.

It still feels weird to be one of the first people that people WANT to sit next to on a flight though because there's plenty of room. Of course, I sometimes get stuck next to someone that really should have two seats and, I admit, it does irk me a little. I always ALWAYS took ownership of my problems and never infringed on someone and it's annoying that others can. I realize the seats are small, but that's the space that they sell and if you need 2... well, at least they meet you halfway and refund it.

Okay, soapbox! I'm sure others will tell me I'm horrible, but well... yeah.
