Yay! I so remember that day for me. And it also opens up exit rows as a possibility when you don't get upgraded. Definite NSV!

It feels so great doesn't it?

I used to be a business traveler and I had my own seat belt extended I purchased so I wouldn't have to be embarrassed and ask for one,

I took a flight last year and not only did the seat belt fit, I was able to pull it super tight, and I had room in my seat!

Congratulations! This is crazily one of the things that I have been most excited by. I used to have to buy either two seats or fly first class, both of which were ridiculously expensive. I just got back from a work trip to Tbilisi, Georgia (23 hours each way), and was more comfortable in my single coach seat than I ever was in first class.

Isn't it a wonderful feeling! I remember my first flight after surgery. The seat felt spacious and the belt was tightened without a single issue.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
