In December, I flew to Washington State (I'm in Michigan) and then drove back across the country with my boyfriend. Like you, I got stuck a lot. I also found myself relying on premade protein shakes a lot because of it. It's definitely a challenge to travel with the band because so much is out of your control as far as food choices. I think a big part of my stuck problem was my nerves. I was so nervous about what to eat and getting stuck I think that stress alone made the band tighten up. Then of course once you're stuck your stomach swells so then it's like this nasty cycle of eating and getting stuck. The good news is, within 24 hours of getting home and back into my comfort zone I was fine again. I hope your vacation was great despite the eating challenges

I am happy you got a nice walking vacation. Maybe when TOM is gone your weight will go down. The only times I get stuck is when I eat too fast or too much. I do a lot of restaurant eating and I order properly, most of the time Did you and the hub enjoy Disney World? Was this your first time there? When my sons were younger we went 3 times in 5 years and I have not been back since, so it is about 25 or more years. Feel better.

Thanks Missy - nice to know I'm not alone. The vacation was awesome, we are already wanting to go back again. But next time I think I will be better prepared and take some shakes with me.

I started running(jogging) too and within a week I can jog a full mile with out stopping. I never thought I would be so excited about running. I am so proud of you keep it up.
