A fat girl's small NSV

So I first noticed this a few weeks ago, but it is still a pleasant surprise whenever I take a bath.

My bathtub is not terribly large, as most bathtubs in most houses I've lived in have been. It comfortably seats one not-too-fat person.

Being a too-fat person, my hips would usually touch both sides of the tub, and at my highest weight I almost never even took baths because it was uncomfortable to sit down and get back up again, sometimes causing me to almost fall.

Now, there is a half-inch on either side of me for the water to get around :smile:

    I love this kind of NSV. Betcha there are other things to observe. I am trying on some clothing that hasn't ever fit the way it should so am discovering some cool benefits that way - but sitting in my car I notice it too - how I fit in the seat and behind the wheel. Pretty cool. Keep up the good work. NSVs are so cool!

    That is kind of a big deal. No matter what the scale is doing that is progress. In speaking of big deals I fixed my computer and got League of Legends back up and running last night. Very awesome.

    Woohoo! I haven't played much myself the past 2 weeks, and there are some new tweaks to the gameplay that I haven't fully figured out yet.

    Awesome, I was there too at one point. Now my problem is that the bottom of the tub hurts my butt! :laugh:

    The smaller I get the more I notice a new and better set of problems, ill take them though!
