BTW Debralyte and I shared our entree and had enough "leftovers" to feed my brother when he got home from work tonight.

I remember days when the thought of sharing an entree was like asking me to invade Iraq

and I would finish my meal and still feel hungry

so do not miss that feeling of never being "full"

There is no such thing at one size fits all, when you get those t-shirts at work meetings or something

have sweaty rolls, under your belly and your back fat

lifting your belly off your legs becasue it is stuck

not being able to wipe properly in a public bathroom because the stall is too narrow

Dread having your picture taken or putting your kids in front of you so you can try to hide but somehow the fatty always comes through.

Thanks for starting this thread Oknee (and debralight), it is so exciting to know that there will come a time when these issues are just a distant memory for me as well.

Not going on boat rides because
The life jackets won't fit
You can't get down the ladder
You can't sit on the seats
Or climb /haul ourself onto the boat

Can't take the maid of the mist ride because you r afraid the plastic thing won't fit,

Ann, those plastic things would fit an ELEPHANT - no joke. They are HUGE. I think to accommodate for people with backpacks and other stuff they want to keep dry. I was SWIMMING in the plastic thingy!!!

I've been on the MOTM twice and it is so worth it whenever you get the chance.

But the walk down to those stinking boats is a damn killer.

Not for long though!!!
