Just until you get down to not needing one. Just a thought. Nah, I'll just lose enough weight not to need one. I don't mind asking, I just want to get to the place that the seatbelt fits me normally. 3 Summermoose, summerseeker and oldandtired reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just didn’t know how often you travel and someone on here mentioned buying one and I thought it was a good option to pass along. 2 Summermoose and oldandtired reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Summermoose 193 Posted November 2, 2021 I look forward to SHOPPING! I absolutely love it and haven’t been able to for years. Especially looking forward to buying some really nice pairs of tall boots 😁 5 oldandtired, lizonaplane, summerseeker and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ColieCallwell 129 Posted November 2, 2021 I am looking forward to seeing old friends! I'd been too ashamed because my weight had gotten so high, I didn't want to see anyone I used to know. I'm going home for Thanksgiving and have already reached out to people to meet and catch up. Can't wait!Sent from my SM-N976V using BariatricPal mobile app 4 1 summerseeker, Candace76, Smanky and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blackcatsandbaddecisions 852 Posted November 3, 2021 My weirdest thing was chairs. Like not having to worry about chairs in restaurants, the embarrassment of not fitting in chairs in a conference room at work, weight limits on patio chairs, etc. I can’t list how many amazing things have happened to me since I lost almost 170 lbs but every time I sit in a chair in the conference room at work and there is tons of room on either side as I sit with my legs crossed (another fun victory) it’s a reminder how far I came. 5 1 Candace76, Summermoose, Butterflyeffect and 3 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Smanky 752 Posted November 5, 2021 Secret: Not being the biggest person in the group anymore. And a big one -I've ALWAYS been able to lift my partner. I long for the day he can not only pick me up, but I don't panic and beg him to put me down before he hurts himself! Not secret: No longer checking the weight restrictions on things. Climbing a ladder without fear! Sitting on any chair without worrying if I'm going to break it. Really and truly being the little spoon. 4 Butterflyeffect, vikingbeast, lizonaplane and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
