I have been visiting family the past two weeks and haven't been able to post (they still have dialup and I'm impatient). For the first time in over five years, I was able to get on the plane, sit down and buckle the belt, without requiring a seatbelt extender!!! I am so happy!

Congratulations!!! What a wonderful feeling that must be. Keep up the good work.

Woo-Hoo!!! That's awesome. Congrats!

That is so awesome. I am looking forward to that NSV myself. I can report that my wedding ring is sliding on and off again with relative ease. It was just swollen around my finger. Not bad for being banded less than a month. :thumbup: You Go Girl!!! Keep it up. I hope to follow you soon.

Congrats!!

I am flying coach for the first time in 5 years on Wednesday. I've dropped 125 pounds since last time. I hope all of me stays in my seat now. :thumbup:

GREAT NSV! and great milestone! Stuff like that feels sooo good!

Isn't it a great feeling?!

I never had to use a seatbelt extender, although I was on my way there. I think the last time I had been in an airplane, the seatbelt was pretty tight/uncomfortable. And that wasn't even at my highest weight!

Flew this past weekend and the seatbelt had like 4 inches of slack. Felt great not to have to loosen it all the way!
