Took a flight, first time post-op..

So, I'm down 100 lbs since surgery which was almost exactly 5 months ago, not including the weight I lost pre-op. I'm still quite heavy but the feeling of not needing a seat belt extender was huge. I asked for one, she told me she'd bring it.. I sat down, tried the belt and behold! It was snug, mind you, but it clicked into place and I almost cried. Definitely made my day. :)

That's a great NSV.  It's the little thing like that that show us what we've done, not the numbers on the scale.

Congratulations. .. that is such a victory! 

That's wonderful! And I'm in awe that you've lost 100 pounds in only 5 months! BRAVO!!!

Congratulations Seyenna!!! This will be one of my biggest NSV's.....I haven't been on a plane in 10+ years because of my size.  I will NOT put myself through asking for an extender, and being uncomfortable....so we go on road trips instead.  I cannot wait to tell my kids and hubby....hey wanna fly there instead!!!!  This is a big big deal and you must feel SO proud!!! Good on ya!

That is fantastic! I travel a lot for my job and I think I will cry when I don't need the extension.

the seat belt extender and the fitting into a booth at a restauraunt were my top (2) NSV's....at 6 yrs post-op I can still do both, which I am pleasantly pleased about.

Congrats~!!  Safe travels
