Will I fit comfortably in an EasyJet seat at size 16/18?

I am travelling on a plane next month, the first time in about 7 years. I am really worried about not being able to fit in the seat properly and end up encroaching on other people and having to ask for a seatbelt extender.

I am 5 ft 4 inches tall and weight is just under 13 stone. I know that I am obese, I have lost 9 stone over 2 years and am still losing weight. I am currently a size 16/18. Big tummy. It's an EasyJet plane.

Would be really grateful for other peoples' experiences. Last time I travelled I think that I weighed more but not sure how much. I really have lost the ability to view my body in a realistic way size wise.

Came back to update. Yes I fitted into the plane seat. Had about 5 inches on the belt to spare! Was comfortable (I am used to London public transport!). It was fine 🤩. Losing weight has transformed my travel experience.
