they are making airline seats bigger

they don't make seat belt extenders anymore

after walking successfully about 10,000 steps (wish i had my pedometer) around a gigantic aquarium in GA, i had no pain

walked up a "million" steps in auditorium,(only available seats) one foot in front of the other - held hubbies arm, but no problem climbing

i have the confidence of an eagle soaring higher and higher (little corny, but true!!!)

I'm NOT lucky - i've worked very hard this year, and will continue for the rest of my life, but.................

i do feel like one of the happiest, healthiest, "luckiest" person in the universe

look out world - you might not recognize me, but yep this is the new me!!!!

Go Grammy!! You are doing FANTASTIC!!

I can see you soaring through the skies! Yep, so attentive and enjoying life now......

I had to have a belt extension when I went to Vegas... I was so embarrassed. So I am glad to hear they are making bigger seats.. Bout damn time!

Grammy you inspire me! Thank you!!

Kathy,

So glad this has worked out so well for you. I am in your age bracket and have the surgery in 3 weeks. I surly hope it works as well for me as it has for you. Keep enjoying your life and thank you for encouraging everyone on this site.

Went to Vegas in February and had that same seat belt extender. That is when I decided I would NEVER use one again. As of today I am down 45lbs! Woohoo, no more extenders for me.

great job!!! Isn't the aquarium in GA awesome? I loved it there!!
