a shared moment of joy

[timeforchange 0]

I just wanted to share with all of you the wonderful moment I had on April 1st in row f seat b of Jet blue airlines. I was...as always very nervous about the seatbelt fitting...and as I clicked it and pulled it I notice how much belt there was left. Yes, this made me happy but then I tested the waters to see if I could seat my 22 month daughter on my lap and still fit in the belt and....yes ....yes ....yes! I started tearing up and my husband thought that I was crying because I had painful gas from the air pressure. I replied..for once....I don't have gas! :blushing:

I really hate flying, But I am actaully loking forward to flying in June as I will have More room then usual this trip, I am down 60 pounds since I last flew!!!

I'm right with you!

I will be flying in June and in the past I've had to use a seat belt extension. That'll never happen again. That's so humiliating.

Congratulations!

I am right there with you. I recently flew on Southwest airlines and was equally as ecstatic about having about 6 inches of belt left over. I also didn't bump into the people on either side of me when forced to sit in the middle. I was actually comfortable, and my ankles didn't swell!! WOO HOO!!! I got a little choked up on your storey when I reflected back on how I felt. Congratulations!!!

congrats to all of you who have either conquered the evil airplane belt or are on their way...it is quite a happy feeling that only we LB girls and guys can share!

I also noticed that the elliptical glider at the gym that hit both sides of my butt while working out, now has a couple inches of space on either side. NICE!:thumbup:
