    Sit in a chair without fear of it breaking
    Sit in a booth at a restaurant
    Fly without requesting a seatbelt extender
    Fit on a rollercoaster
    .....and so many more that I can't even think of right now!
    Fortunately, I can do all of these now (even though I still have a ways to go)!!

    I recently had the "I don't have to take a deep breath or sweat while I shave my legs in the bath" NSV lol that was great! It was fairy easy and fast which is odd!

    I also have had a continuous NSV of my belly getting further and further away from the steering wheel! (yaya!)

    When sitting in my recliner at home being able to share the seat of the recliner with my daughter instead of her having to sit on my lap. It's awesome!!! Sitting in my computer chair comfortably, being further away from the steering wheel, crossing my legs, no longer worried about breaking a chair, sitting in a booth at a restaurant and so much more!

    Having LOTS of spare room between the steering wheel and your belly ;-)

    NOT fearing being seated at a booth in a restaurant AND again, sliding into said booth and having lots of spare room between the table & your tummy!

    Being able to comfortably sit in an airplane and NOT looking for people with that dreaded look on their face like "OMG! Hope that person doesn't sit by me!!!"

    Being able to shop in the juniors section (it's CHEAPER!)
