My FIRST NSV after 45 days! PLANES!!

Options
I travel a lot for work- and before I started MFP about 40 days ago the airline seats were getting a bit tight in the hip/butt area-- if you know what I mean :)

I'm happy to report -that about 18 lbs down and I am typing this from my airline seat and I have ROOM on either side of me - even with the arm rest down!!!!!!

I'm just thrilled and feel so incredibly proud of myself! I had to share!

    I used to have to sit in the front seat in cars, because back seat seatbelts wouldn't fit around my obese body. I know that, the first time I sat down in the back and clicked that seatbelt without a problem, I was elated.

    All to say, I know exactly how you feel. :-)

    Well done! Maybe you can get them to start charging you less, too...? ;)

    :flowerforyou: Fastening that Airplane Belt WITHOUT an Extender was one of My Goals when I started this Journey, even though I seldom have reason to Fly. There is a photo of the Belt on my First Plane Ride after I lost 89 pounds on my Profile. You NEVER forget that feeling!!!
