I just realized I can adjust my car seat to a more comfortable position, since I don't need to accommodate a big ol' stomach anymore. I could've done this months ago!

haha! Don't feel stupid...I have yet to adjust my seat and I've been able to move it for a long, long time now! Isn't it funny how in our minds we still see ourselves as so big even though we're not? :/

Don't feel stupid, I think it's natural to have your self-perception catch up to reality over time. Stupid would be to realize you could adjust the seat and not bother to. That'd be stupid.

What a great NSV. Even if it took you a little while to realize it.

BAND REMOVED 9-4-12-fought insurance to get sleeve and won! Sleeved 1/22/13! Five years out and trying to get that last 15 pounds back off.

HaHa! Altho I have regained it, the 80 pounds I had lost left me feeling like a little girl in my car! I have a larger car anyway so after losing all that weight, I had to bring it forward, up and adjust the mirrors. It was great!!
