So went to Knott's berry Farm last Thursday...

I have not been to an amusement park in such a long time. The embarrassment of not fitting on rides is a little to much to take sometimes....but this time it was different.

I was able to go on every single rollercoaster and thrill ride. I had an amazing time and logged in about 7 miles of walking with no real tiredness. It was great to have so much energy and feel so NORMAL!

3 months in and it has already changed my life.

That's awesome Thee-O! Keep up the great work you are inspiring.

Thats awsome! Congrats! I got to experience that feeling when my husband and I took our 3 children to a carnival a few months ago. My daughter wanted mommy to ride with her and I was freaked out because I was sure I wouldnt fit on the ride. I sucked it up and went anyway and was shocked. Not only did I fit but was actually not tight. I was so happy and excited because I love rides but for years was too heavy. We rode every ride she was allowed on (she is 4). Again congrats, and keep up the good work!!

Awesome NSV!

Congrats!!

I went to Universal Studios Hollywood a few weeks ago, and went on the Jurassic Park ride. The ride seats five people to a row and it's one lap bar for the entire row. Imagine my surprise when the lap bar didn't stop on me, it stopped on someone else and I actually had room to spare. A lot of room actually.

I thought the thing was broken.

Oh yeah, and how much do you weigh if you don't mind me asking? I haven't been to Knott's Berry save for the halloween events in a really long time. Worried about fitting on the rides and all that...I don't think I'd have a problem now but you can never really tell.

You weight less than me I am currently around 301. At my highest I was 375 and at surgery around 340. I lost a lot of inches though. I am right at the cusp between normal and big guy clothing....almost there!!

When you go to Knott's get on Ghost Rider. that is a fun ride!

Awesome !!! Congrats!! I remember being at Busch Gardens in Williamsburg, Va and being asked to get off because the bar wouldn't come down enough. I was banded the last week in May 2011 and have lost 34 pds so far. Looking forward to riding roller coasters next spring.

YAY! That is such a great feeling! We went to Sesame Place at the end of July and I had the same experience! I truly enjoyed myself. I was able to go on all the rides with my son which was an amazing feeling! Congrats to you!

Wow. Amazing! Good for you. I honestly felt the same way. I was at a really low point about 4 years ago when I couldnt get on a roller coaster ride. I had to get off too. How embarrassing! but that didn't stop me from eating! Am looking forward to taking my son next spring when he's 2!

Congrats! I'm looking forward to the time when I won't have to think about whether I will fit or not. It would be nice to just make the decision to go to an amusement park without any worries.
