Ent out to the east coast last week and I saw this...a seatbelt with an extra 8 or 9 inches. When did they lengthen them?...lol. I almost needed and extension the last time I got on a plane so this is a major deal for me.

I fly tomorrow for the first time since surgery 8.75 months ago. I cant wait to see where the seatbelt is. I will take a picture too! I have lost 82 pounds and the last time I was on a plane was last spring for 8 hours to Brazil. The seat belt barely fastened and dug into my hips and I couldnt put the arm rest down because it mashed by hips and hurt! I hope it is greatly improved this time! Congrats to you!!!!

non-scale victory...anything that represents something good happening that doesn't have to do with the numbers on the scale, like a compliment, wearing a smaller size clothes, etc.

I will be traveling this summer and can't wait to see if my butt only takes up my seat. :) I was close to a seat belt extender but for some reason only needed it on certain airlines/airplanes. Congratulations!

Awesome! Fitting into formerly uncomfortable places always gives me pause to think and reminds me how much better it can get! Congrats!

I've almost always been overweight but when I flew last year it really made me realize just how big I had gotten. Both flights were embarrassing and uncomfortable. I am 7 weeks out and will be flying again in the fall - I can't wait to have the same NSV! Congrats on your success!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
