I do love to travel now that I am thin again! It is so nice to fit easily in plane seats, and to be healthy and strong enough to haul my suitcase and sprint between connections!

I'm headed out to Tucson today and New Zealand for 3 weeks Sunday. I'll be posting from the land of the Kiwis where it's summer now. I am so psyched!

Wow!! Good for you. I cant wait to reach that point. I have not flown in 16 years because of my weight.

That is AWESOME!! I know exactly what you mean... I have not been on a plane since surgery... but i used to travel a lot and I remember dreading having someone sit next to me... having the armrest not go all the way down... being totally embarrassed on flight when the seat belt barely fit...
Its amazing how selective memory tends to set in... I have a ways to go but so far so good.... and I know that when I take my daughter on vacation in November... I wont have the anxiety that I had at 289...
Good for you! WAHOO!!

Another thing is that I never worry about where I am being seated when I go out to eat now. I used to avoid restaurants with small booths.

Have fun in New Zealand, I don't envy that flight at any size I went to NSW Australia from CT, 24 hours of travel really sucked. When I went to Maui I thought 12 hours was bad, going down under made that look like a walk in the park.
