 Ok, so I just boarded my flight from Nashville to Detroit.  I am in my seat in Coach ( sucks that I lost my Diamond status, so no loung or upgrade - oh well) I can put both armrests down, spread my legs, and my knees aren't buried in the seat in front of me.

Oh yeah, buckled the belt and pulled about a foot of belt to tighten it.

Have I mentioned today that I love the sleeve and losing 24 inches of waistline!

Isn't it just the best feeling.  I always hated flying because I was so uncomfortable and tried to shrink as much as a 300+lbs girl could. I didn't want the other person sat next to me to feel I was encroaching on their space. I have flown 2x in the last week and I sat comfortably in the seat and had that extra foot of seatbelt to boot. Now I am still a 6ft person so unless I am in exit seat leg room will always be an issue but the seating is okay now.

Congrats on your weightloss and continued success!

Your sleeve is the tool.  You're the one working it.

Great job, rhearob!!!  Enjoy the benefits!
