I can't believe it! I went to Six Flags, got on a ride that I haven't been able to ride in a year and BAM...LOCK...RIDE! And with room to spare too...I'm just too giddy for words here. Just walking the 2.3 miles a day 3x a week and one day a weekend at Six Flags and this is what ya get! I rode all the normal ones I could ride before that didn't have lock bars but when I got into the Runaway Mine Train with hubby and it locked down with about 2 inches to spare...OH MAN!

LOVE IT, LOVE IT, LOVE IT!!!!

I am SOOOOO happy for you! The last time I was at an amusement park I was 270 lbs and my friend and I are shaped differently and the bar wouldn't lock. They had us get out and wait for the next train so that we could each have our own seats. HUMILIATED! So, now the plan is that when I hit goal (whatever that turns out to be) my best friend and I are going to Disney!

I'm almost ashamed to say that's one of my biggest reasons for WLS (yes, health is #1). I cannot wait to ride roller coasters with my 7 year old grandson. I used to LOVE THEM and cannot wait to get into again. Congrats to you and what a GREAT FEELING! Keep Rocking It!!!!!

Being able to ride any ride I want to at amusement parks (and not feel like the fat ass the worker is afraid to tell to get off the ride...) is one of my NSV goals. Once I am small enough, I want to go to ValleyFair, Six Flags, Disney World, and go to some of the overseas amusement parks to when I travel. (Once I fit comfortably on a plane seat, yet another NSV I hope to have!)

Way to go! I'm headed there with my family next Friday and I can't wait, I haven't been there since I was a teenager!

We went to Carowinds last weekend and I felt the same way as you, it felt great being able to wear everything :)

Life is not an emergency, live one day at a time.
