Finally landed

I've never been so happy to get off a plane. 15 hours! Also, I've never eaten so much on a flight. There was dinner about an hour after take-off, a snack somewhere in the middle of the flight, and breakfast about 2 hours before we landed. For airplane food, it wasn't half bad. Somehow, I selected a vegan meal. 🤦‍♀️
Dinner ended up being spinach saag, balsmati rice, dinner roll, gluten-free cookie, and pita chips and hummus.
The snack was a veggie Stromboli and mango sorbet. (Everyone got this.)
Breakfast was oatmeal and quinoa topped with blueberries and mango. Interesting combo, but it was pretty tasty.
I'm full. If I had realized how much I food I was going to be served, I would have eaten differently before I left the States.

I also wore my "blood pressure" cuffs on my legs the last half of the flight. What a godsend and relief they were. This was in addition to my compression socks that I always wear.Read more
