As a plus size lady and one that travels often, I am the kind of person that doesn’t like to fuss too much while on flight and travelling as I don’t like to have much attention drawn to me. With your insight, I am more confident and know what to do on my next travels!! Love from Singapore! ❤❤

I suggest making your own exercise schedule and regimen instead of watching videos online, you can do this by researching certain exercises that will benefit your body the most then put all of them together on a list. you can exercise from home or at the gym but I’ve lost my excess weight from doing all of these things at home. With this routine you are really guaranteed to lose weight!

I had this anxiety about swimsuits as well. I have given birth to 5 children and 4 are grown and the youngest is 9 and I don't want to hold back the 9 year old. I also have super fair skin (and have had skin cancers removed) So I wear swim capris under my suit and no one says or stares or anything. I don't have chaffing and I go to all the beaches. Plus, for the most part, as my adult children tell me, everyone is mostly worried about themselves, its only the extreme jerks that arent and they are well...extreme jerks (= Go to ALL the beaches!!!

Wise words and good advice for people who aren't necessarily plus sized too. (Some people traveling with children have fears too. As long as I was trying to keep my kids happy, people don't stare at you so bad.) One caveat to the weight limit for activities is horseback riding--those limits are for the animal's safety.

A good hack for fligts I have used the last two years is to wear a bumbag/fannypack that holds my phone, ereader, headhones, chewinggum, chapstick and things I know I will need to be able to access multiple times during the flight. If it is fastened around your waist they almost always allow you to wear it even in the emergency seat ail, so you can have more legroom and still have your thibngs on hand. As someone who holds a lot of buil around my waist, it can be a striggle for me to bend down and reach my bag under the seat infront, so this has made it a lot mot convinient for me.

Great video Anna!!!! My husband and I are both tall plus sized people. We purchase one extra seat in the 3-seat row. That way we both have a seat and a half. Being not only plus sized we are both tall (me 5’10” and hubby is 6’2”) and stick out wherever we go. Can you discuss the person in front of your seat reclining their seat. Also the weight limit on suitcase - I believe is 50 lbs. Plus sized clothes are larger therefore there is more weight for each single item. This causes us to have to bring less clothing. Another item is a CPAP machine. It is a medical device and does not count as a carry on. So a person can have a regular carry on as well as a bag with the CPAP machine. I have a funny tip for when the flight attendant asks “Cookies or pretzels?”…. Say “yes please”. My husband does that and he always gets both. 😂

Tip for asking for a seatbelt extender: ask when you first get on the plane. I know I'm going to need one, no matter what. Often they have one they can easily hand you right then. Also, if you can, hand it back to an attendant at the end of the flight. It is always appreciated, as they tend to go missing if left on the seat.

It just helps.

I was horribly humiliated by Alaska Airlines on a work trip several years ago. At check-in, I asked the check-in agent for a window seat, then joked that if there was an empty seat between seats, that would be great so I could spread out my work stuff (laptop, etc.). She took it upon herself to file a red flag internally, but didn't let me know she had done so. However, at the gate, the gate agent called me and let me know that a was flagged for my size! It was immediately humiliating! They wanted to measure me in the seat and see how I fit. (Just writing this brings back those feelings of humiliation and sadness.) All I could do was cry. I called my boss and told him what was happening, but what could he do but be disgusted and telling me he was going to contact legal. I bordered early to be "measured" and was approved to fly without any further questions or being penalized. The gate agent was disgusted at her colleague for reporting me and the flight attendants were as well. I cried all the way home on that flight. Unfortunately, I had to fly Alaska Airlines several more times after that, but not to that city. Let me just say that my job for 24 years required a lot of air travel and I was then a seasoned traveler. Definitely agree about asking for help whenever you travel, bc people don't generally think of the things you might need. Generally, flight attendants are very glad to help you with the seat belt extender and anything else you might need. Make sure you always are in a great mood when traveling - I make it my #1 point to always be extra nice to airport and airline staff at all times - and I usually get special treatment back.

I love your enthusiasm and no nonsense approach! I am not plus sized and still found much that was helpful and inspiring. As an aside, having waited tables in the past my observation is that host/esses tend to be young and not experienced in how to handle many situations. So they often won't address seating with a plus sized person- perhaps fear of embarrassing the customer or lack of social skills. As you suggest, being proactive and asking for what you need will make the seating process easy and let you have the comfort you deserve. Ultimately the business wants you to be happy and have a great experience.

From what I know with most airlines, the second seat larger folks book is not a guarantee either. If the flight is full and there is a waiting list or a staff member needs a jump seat, they can take your booked second seat and place someone in it whether you fit in the 1 seat or not. If you can’t, they can remove you if they need a staff member to fly or someone is in need of a seat that day and will book you on a later flight once you get off. It’s in most airlines small writing when booking and you agree to those terms. There are more friendly plus airlines that would rather seat you, but they still have this in the writing when you book just in case. So if you book a second seat and truely will always need it, do not expect it’s a guarantee flight that time of day or even day.

Compression socks! I'm not plus-sized, but I recently had a problem with swelling after a 3.5 hr. flight. My bf is big and has difficulty fitting into economy seats. I was sitting by the window, and I was trying to give him as much room as possible. I couldn't really move my lower legs too much, and after getting to our destination, I realized that my ankles had swelled up like balloons. Normally, when my ankles swell after flying, a long walk or two and swimming in the ocean take care of the problem. On this trip, we were visiting friends and didn't have the opportunity to walk or go swimming so for the entire four days we were there, my ankles bothered me. I didn't think of compression socks til I got home but I'm definitely buying a pair or two for my next trip.

Thank you so much for this video! It answered many questions, especially traveling on a plane. One thing I've discovered in travels--I love to see local or professional theatre productions if there is something on stage. A problem I have come across is the seats, many times, do not accommodate the width of my thighs. And this is true for sporting event seats (I'm a big baseball fan and if there's a home game going on in a city I'm visiting, I like to see it!) So it's embarrassing for me when I get there to ask to either exchange my seat for a handicap seat (baseball stadium that I did not had available seating when I purchased my tickets), or a chair with no handles (in New York, I was in a small theatre seeing "Kinky Boots" and the attendant looked at me like I was speaking a foreign language). So it's truly nice to know that by asking in advance for any accommodations I may need, whether the stadium or theatre has something available or not, will save a lot of stress when I actually get to the venue. And I've discovered it's easier to call the venue to purchase tickets instead of trying to purchase tickets via a floor chart online--those charts do not tell you where you will be comfortable. Thanks again and I look forward to move videos!!!

Great video! In the future I’d love to see more on packing. My clothes are large and therefore not so much fits in a suitcase. I definitely can’t travel with just a carry on. Other than packing multiple suitcases are there tips and tricks?

This is going to be a weird question but hopefully you’ll answer it for me. I am a plus size gal and I’m finding it hard to find underwear that fit comfortably that are not white granny panties. You mentioned in your video that you always bring spare underwear because you can never replace the ones if they are lost in your luggage. Do you mind telling me where you get your underwear from?

Thank you, Anna! What a fantastic video to kick off the channel. I try to arrive early when traveling whether for a flight, tour, meal, etc. If you aren't comfortable asking for accommodation in front of others, this affords the opportunity to do so during a lull. It also offers the opportunity to get to your seat on a bus, ferry, or at a show with fewer people to navigate through. Would love to see a video on traveling with just a carry-on, which would likely be for domestic/regional travel. Larger bodies = larger clothing so any takes on how to maximize would be fantastic! So excited for this channel, Anna.

Great video! can't wait for more. Maybe you could let us know what clothes your prefer to travel in and what you would wear on different trips?? I'm off to Disney World in Orlando (I live in England) so I'm wondering about what types of clothes and materials to pack. I'm a sweater and that can be embarrasing you see.

Those sharp points have gotten my uber skinny husband and our daughter who's only 11 several times! It's not just us plus sized people who have to watch out. I've kept a baby blanket all these years to add as padding on the seat especially for my daughter. She's old enough to understand and sit right but if she falls asleep she can shift or the pressure over time can cause discomfort or ruined pants.
