The seatbelt moment is such a good one, mine was a couple months in and I sat there buckled an extra minute just because. Still nowhere near your number though, that's wild
Your journey
Week-by-week log starting at 247 lbs — join me
I'm about 14 down and haven't hit the buckle thing yet, but the weekly logging part is what I keep coming back to. Mine's just a note on my phone and I already see the pattern in it.
I had the same seatbelt moment a few weeks back and just sat there staring at the buckle for a second before I believed it.
The airplane seatbelt thing got me. I flew last month and caught myself reaching for the extender out of habit before realizing I didn't need it
How long into it did the seatbelt click? I'm around 12 lbs in and keep eyeballing the tray table like it owes me something
What got me was the tray table actually latching flat on my last flight. Book the ticket, the seatbelt test is worth the nerves.
The seatbelt thing is what I'm waiting on. I'm only 5 lbs in so the buckle still bites, but flying out of OKC next month and I'll be checking
The seatbelt click is such a specific relief. I flew last month and the tray table actually went all the way down, which I had honestly stopped expecting.
What was the seatbelt click like the first time you didn't brace for it? I still catch myself tensing up on planes out of habit
tbh how long did it take you to get to that first seatbelt click? I'm only about 10 down and already eyeing the tray table clearance on my next flight
The belt click is the thing I'm chasing too, only 5 lbs in so I'm still in the brace-and-suck-in phase. Does it get easier to stop bracing, or is that just muscle memory that fades on its own?
The seatbelt thing hit me around 50 lbs down and I just sat there buckling and unbuckling like a weirdo. How long did the 1.8 a week take to feel normal for you?
The seatbelt click is such a specific victory, love that it hit you on a plane of all places. Still waiting on my own belt moment but this makes me want to book a flight just to test it.
The seatbelt thing is real. I'm around 26 down and still in the tug-and-hope stage, so reading that the click actually happens is good to know.
The airplane seatbelt thing got me too, that click is such a weirdly big deal. I'm around 40 down and still log every week, mostly because the flat weeks are the ones i want to remember later.
The seatbelt thing got me too, I flew out of PDX last month and didn't even think about the extender until I was already buckled. That 1.8 a week adds up faster than it feels like it should
The seatbelt click got me too, weirdly emotional for a piece of metal. I'm at 67 down and those flat weeks you're logging were most of my chart, so the 1.8s clearly stack up fine
