I'm so excited about going to Cedar Point tomorrow.  We are leaving at 5am. It's a 219 mile drive for us to get there.  Planning on spending the night at Hotel Breakers tomorrow night.  My husband isn't a rides person, so he's staying home while I take my 10 yr old son and my 16 yr old son and a friend of his.

I am still so nervous about whether or not I will fit ok on the rides.  I know I'll be looking over the people as they exit a ride..comparing myself to them..to get an idea if I'll be ok.  I am 214 lbs, size 16 jean and XL shirts.  I have a feeling I just may cry when I get on a ride and if I fit comfortably.. So excited!!

You will fit perfectly on the rides! I attended amusement parks frequently in my twenties at 250 pounds.  I did not have any issues until one day I attempted to try a coaster lying on my stomach. The operator had a difficult time closing ride on my huge hips and behind! I made it on the ride though!

210 pounds is a great accomplishment and you will have a blast at Cedar Point! I am orginally from Western New York but I never had the chance to go to Cedar Point. Hopefully, one day I will do!

Dawnie, you will have a blast at Cedar Point! I'm looking forward to going myself in August. I'm anxious to hear how the rides 'fit' too.

Always the best wishes, Sue

You will definitely fit!  I worked there, and rode ALL the rides, at 235, with no problem.  I returned one year at 280 and had a snug fit on the Raptor, but they were able to get it down.

Have a blast!!!

Have a great time Dawn!  Make sure to give us a full report.  You will have no problem fitting on any of the rides.
