HUGE NSV for me!!
Hi everyone!
I have always wanted to go skydiving, but I was always over the weight limit. Now that I am under the weight limit, I decided to treat myself for my 30th birthday that just passed.
Yesterday I jumped out of a plane strapped to a stranger and it was AMAZING!! The view of New England fall foliage was spectacular, the feeling of weightlessness was amazing, and the overall experience was absolutely breathtaking. It made me feel so good, I almost tear up thinking about it.
I am so grateful for this tool helping me get my life back. I just turned 30, and now I can LIVE this beautiful life, and LOVE myself.
Congratulations! That is so amazing and courageous!! There's an indoor skydiving place not too far from us that I want my husband and I to try now that we've lost so much. That's about as courageous as I'm gonna get.

What a wonderful way to reward yourself. I am so happy for you. Where did you go for the sky diving? (just curious as I'm in New England as well. - though I'm not so courageous as to try it!
best wishes,

I'll be glad to fly the plane for you, but I ain't jumping. In fact, if I'm flying, you'll be eager to jump.
