OK so i have a 100+ lbs to lose and i've always stayed away from "uncomfortable" situations such as traveling on a plane for obvious reasons. I'm on a new mission to lose at least 20 lbs before our trip next month. I have lost a total of 16lbs so far since April but i'm still worried that it won't be enough. I will be traveling with my two sisters who don't have the same problem as i do and who swear to me that it won't be a problem to go on a plane but i'm still worried about being asked to step off or IDK my imagination is running wild. *sigh* Is it just me that feels this way? does anyone else have a similar story to this? I really do NOT want to be THAT girl that gets asked to step off the plane for being too fat. ugh.

    Perhaps this plane trip is a blessing in disguise and will really motivate you to lose that 20 pounds.
    I don't know if this is helpful or not, but there's a 'reality' tv show called ruby, i don't know if you've heard of it. But it follows the weight loss of a woman from about 700 pounds. She managed to get on a plane with her family while she was still in the 400s. She didn't enjoy it but she did it :)
    I hope you ahve a safe trip and reach your goal!
