dawalsh 919 Posted June 26, 2013 I'm sitting on a plane right now. I looked at the narrow seats, I ALWAYS have to lift the armrest to fit and ask for a seatbelt extension. I was so worried because this plane is packed. Anyway I fit in the seat and was able to buckle my seatbelt without an extension! Does that count as a Non Surgical Victory? I'm so excited and I just can't hide it!! This may seem minor to someone else but I actually have years in my eyes. I have not been able to sit in a regular airline seat for over 26 years! 6 LessLee, srussell8, kll724 and 3 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

donna12 742 Posted June 26, 2013 I love it love it love it!!!! Congrats to you, that is on my bucket list, is to fit into a plane seat without my bottom end spilling over into the next seat or the arm rest having to be lifted up. So happy for you and safe travels. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SageTracey 608 Posted June 26, 2013 Fantastic NSV and congratulations. Just one small thing - NSV stands for Non scale Victory i.e. The wins we Celebrate that aren't about the numbers on the scale. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dawalsh 919 Posted June 27, 2013 Thanks everyone, when I got off the plane my son said right away that he could definitely see a weight loss in me so that made my NSV even sweeter! 2 donna12 and kll724 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
