May 7th I am going to an amusement park for my son Birthday and I love roller Coaster and want to ride them when I go. I will be 7 days shy of being 4 months out from surgery. Is it safe for me to ride them. I sure hope so because I know I will fit in the seat this time around. Thanks for any help.

The way I figure it, if you fit, go for it.
Have fun.

I agree if you feel up for it go for it. I went to a water park this past weekend and did things I would have never done before at my old weight!

I went to Disney at 4.5 months out and did ALL the coasters!! I felt no pains.

I would def call my dr and run it by them. However it is my opinion that if you have energy enough to go to a theme park, which you should at that point, then yeah a roller coaster is totally fine. Good luck!!

I was a month and a half out from my DS and managed to easily go on all the rides except the jerkiest at Disneyland/California Adventure. Your binder is your friend!
