My biggest NSV to date

I flew to South Carolina in November, 2012 for a vacation and I haven't been on a airplane since. That is, until 2 weeks ago. November 2012, I had to have a seat belt extension, and couldn't put the tray down which made it very difficult to eat when you had people on either side of you. I also had a hard time walking through the major airports. Well, this I flew, and not only could I do up the seat belt but I had to pull it to make it tighter. Tray, no problem... I kept it down, because I could. Walking around the airport, was so easy. I even ran to the security point because I was late. I feel amazing, like I can doing anything now.

    Love this - I did the same thing the first time I flew after losing the weight - kept the tray down because I could :)

    The other thing that I was excited about was not having to do the sideways waddle down the aisle

    Congrats on the NSV!
