Parvathi 2 Posted September 15, 2005 Just got back from Sea World with my daughter. It's the first time I've flown in two years. Normally, the belt won't fasten - this time, there was a good 6-8 inches left on it .. YaYYY. And my arse/hips didn't keep pushing the arm rest up lol, which has always happened in the past. I was able to out walk my lil one at Sea World and she's a real bundle of energy, so that in itself was quite a feat for me. I didn't even keep having to stop and catch my breath. <doing the happy dance even though I'm exhausted from the trip LOL> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jachut 487 Posted September 15, 2005 Boy that must feel GREAT! I tell myself I still fit into a plane seat but truth be told last time I flew in May I was very glad it was Eliza on one side of me, Ewan on the other - Fraser and Doug were across the aisle. I had the armrests up on both sides and I needed it! I can fit but its embarrassing seeing the overhang. Sad thing is at 5ft 10 I recall being wedged into economy seats anyway even way back at 75kg or so, my legs are too long and I have to kind of sit sideways to fit them in.

rachel 0 Posted September 15, 2005 wow, that is one of my pet hates - squeezing myself in to aeroplane seats - i don't think i've ever been able to do up the belt. i usually put a coat over my lap and feign sleep or intense interest in the inflight mag.

Parvathi 2 Posted September 15, 2005 Thanks everyone! It all had me so happy hehe Paula, you're so right! Jaz (my lil one) realizes that this time last year I couldn't have done that. For a 7 year old, she's been extremely supportive and is always telling me how great I'm looking. Jachut, I was looking around at the room left in the seats and I noticed that even on Jaz, there was only 2 inches either side of her lil bum. Even the super skinny girl beside me was touching the edges of the armrest. Those seats are unbelievably small :/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
