So, I've lost 171 lbs in the last 17 months and as my reward I am going skydiving today!  OMG!!!!  I am terrified and so afraid that I am going to chicken out!  Has anyone else done this?  Give me some advice!

OH my goodness!  I wanted to do that so badly.  Unfortunately, my back surgeon vetoed the idea due to a previous spinal fusion and current disc degeneration. 

Have fun - and have some EXTRA FUN for me, ok?   =)

Have a great time, have to say I would chicken out, not sure I could ever do this.  Hope you have a wonderful time.

Great reward for your success! Doing something you would never have done before. Wish I had the nerve to try it. Enjoy floating down and safe landing.
