Obesity and Traveling

I love to travel. The thrill of going somewhere new is amazing. Unfortunately, since gaining my last twenty pounds, the process of traveling itself evokes anxiety and frustration.

There are the obvious hindrances. I'm uncomfortable in the seats. I need a seat belt extension. I eat a lot when I travel. No news there.

But it also occurs to me that packing is made more difficult by my plus size. There's no way I'm getting more than two pairs of size 26 jeans and three t-shirts in a carry-on. I could get a lot more clothing in if I were, say, a size 12.

Just sayin'. Something to think about and work towards.

By the way... Smile. You're wonderful. :)
