So we put our yard chairs on the front porch to sit in and give out candy for Halloween. I sat down and after about an hour it hit me that the last time I had sat in this chair my ass hung over the sides and the arms dug into me so bad it was painful. So NOW I FIT JUST FINE! IT was comfortable for me to sit out there and give out candy. I rather enjoyed myself. Usually I am so uncomfortable and hate people looking at my fat ass hanging over the edge. It was awesome to feel normal. I love the new life that my DS has given me.

Fabulous!  Have you been to the movies or a concert yet?????  I still try to get aisle seats for quick bathroom exits, but at least hubby doesn't have to sit next to the person on the other side anymore....I fit just fine.  Normal is so much easier!

​ Yay!

That's one of the things that I have on my list of 'goals' after DS... To be able to fit in any chair I encounter, to no longer need a seatbelt extender in my car, to be able to go to concerts, movies, venues without worrying about if I'll fit, and to be able to fly w/o having to buy an extra seat. They might seem like little things, that probably aren't even thought about, to 'normal' size people but to me, I feel like those things hold me back from so much I want to do!
