Roller Coasters!

Dec 31, 2008

So, on Monday as a pre birthday treat, I went to Six Flags Discovery Kingdom.  I got a season pass there in September so I could go with my friend.  Well, when I went in September I couldn't fit on Medusa.  I didn't even try Kong because I heard the seats were smaller on that one.  Well, I have lost 25 lbs since then, so I figured I would give it a try.  And guess what!??  I fit!  Medusa was still a tight squeeze for my hips but the harness thing fit just fine, even had some room to spare.  And I figured why not try Kong too.  I fit perfectly fine on Kong.  I felt so good.  I still can't go on the wooden roller coaster Roar though because my thighs are too big.  On that ride it doesn't matter how big your stomach is, just as long as your thighs are small enough for the bar to go down.  Lame, but one day I will fit on it.

It feels so good to be able to go on roller coasters again.  I've always loved them, but in jr. high and high school there were some that I couldn't go on.  It was always so embarassing to try and then to have the worker say that they were sorry but it wasn't going to work.  I always felt like everyone was looking at me.  On Monday I even thought this skinny teenager was looking at me in line thinking to herself that there was no way that I was going to fit.  But, I did, thank you very much!  No more being embarassed when I go to amusement parks.  And as I lose weight there shouldn't be anything that I can't go on.
