None Surgical Fail !!!

 

First, I love that airline travel is soooo much easier and enjoyable at goal.

 

I am so down with being able to fit into the seat as they were designed for “normies”

 

I love:

 

  • No seat belt extender and I have major slack, sometimes almost 2 feet.
  • The food tray goes down and I actually have space.
  • Major room/space/gap in between the arm rests.
  • Can actually see the buttons on the inside of the arm rest. My fat azz before would snap my headphone jack and push on the recliner button.
  • I can sit in the seat and reach under the seats for my bag.
  • Tie my shoes while sitting in the seat.
  • Can curl up and sleep in two seats with the middle armrest up.
  • Can sit in a middle seat when/if my aisle seat is not available.
  • I only eat 1/3 of an airline meal.
  • I don’t see apprehension or disgust on faces as I’m walking down the isle looking for my seat.
  • I love that I’m not a hot sweaty mess emanating heat and funk to the person next to me.

 

Just got back from Barcelona a few hours ago (Tapas research mission) had a very BIG FAIL !!!!

 

We all know that with all that stomach fat we are/were not that mobile or flexible. Once were wedged into the seat..... were stuck with not much movement and just trying to breath is a chore.

 

All those good things listed above are all cool and I love them and would not trade for anything...... but here is the downside.

 

I was woken up by the young pretty Spanish woman sitting next to me....... because my head was on her lap !!!!!!!!

 

I was in shock, startled and super embarrassed all at the same time !!!

 

I apologized profusely and she and her husband or BF were very good about it and were just laughing it off and she assured me it was OK....... damn, I just wanted to die and evaporate !!!!

 

This would NOT or ever happened to the fat me !!!!!

 

Just thought I’d share an EPIC FAIL !!!!!

   Thank you for the good laugh early in the morning.  I'm sure I would have been mortified and horrified had it been me, but I'm sure anyone I told the story to would laugh!

What a hoot!   Where is our picture Mr. Photographer? 

Had an airplane nsv recently. Flying out of BFE on 32 seat plane. In the back there are four seats in one row. i was in a middle one.  A very tall woman had the window seat. She was even more jammed in than a usual seat. I offered to trade with her but she said no.  A little later I offered again as she was really uncomfortable. I told her I used to be real fat and now I loved being able to fit in small spaces.   She accepted the trade, I was fine, and we had a nice conversation about WLS.  Flight attendant actually chewed us out for not paying attention to announcements.   D
