Oh my gosh! me too.

just got back from vacation -haven't flown in about five years -the last flight was an embarrassment that I'll never forget!

no set-belt extender! I kept looking down at my lap and judging the distance between the end of me and the room left in the seat. I couldn't believe it!

I have to admit I was like a kid' bucking and unbuckling the seat belt, and every time, giddy.

isn't it wonderful!!

congratulations!

Congratulations!!!!!!

I flew last month and could barely get the seatbelt on but I did it. As uncomfortable as it was, I was going to win!

Congratulations! I am flying 4 weeks from today and I am dreading the flight due to the seat belt situation, I probably will need one. I was at this weight a while ago and did not need one, but I gained weight since then and lost it again, but when I regained it, it all went to my butt it seems, and it hasn't really left there yet.

Congratulations! It's always so much fun, fitting into smaller places that were once too snug. (I was happy to use an airplane bathroom recently--seriously, it was a thrill. Ah, simple pleasures!)

On that same subject. Don't you, or should I say didn't you just hate the ladies rooms that you had to straddle the seat to close the doors and open them again. Glad that I finally am past that stage too!

Congrats! Seems all of us know exactly how you feel. I'm looking forward to do the day when, confronted with any chair, regardless of how narrow, I won't have to worry about being able to sit comfortably in it. I hope to never have aches in the sides of my legs again!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
