Lap Band Vs Roller Coasters

Hi everyone,

Its been a while since I posted everything has been going great since I had the lap band back in Dec 09. I have lost 174 pounds. Now I know I have drooped a lot of weight but when I look in the mirror I still see the same big guy, some friends and I are going to Six Flags Over Texas on Sunday and I am afraid that I wont be able to fit in the seats everyone says I will be fine including my doctor but I just cant get that feeling out of my mind do any one have any good advice.

Thanks Guys,:biggrin:

Jon

You will be FINE!! Try to think positive. Before you know it you'll be at the park and fitting comfortably! You've come a long way and I definitely don't think you need to worry about fitting into one of the rollercoasters.

Have fun! :biggrin:

Congrats on your loss! That's freakin awesome!!!!!!!! You should be super proud of your accomplishments!!!

As for Six Flags, I've been there at my heaviest and you should be fine. I'm not sure how tall you are, but my DH is 6'1", 250 and had no problems on any of the rides. The only thing he kind of complained about was the lack of leg room. Other than that, have fun and enjoy yourself!!!! Since it's hotter than Hades out now (I'm in N TX too), you'll probably lose more when you're there!!!

Have fun!!
