One of the goals I set for myself along this weight loss journey was to celebrate on a roller coaster. I had said for months that I'd go to Disney for my 100 pounds mark. That came and went and still no Disney. Then it was for my birthday. That came and went. Then it was for breaking in to Onederland. That came and, oh NO, not again. I couldn't do Disney, but I could get to Six Flags and back in a day. I did it!
We got there as the gates were being opened and stayed until about 8 pm. I rode every ride out there. First up, Mister Freeze.....holy crap, it was amazing! I strode up the other seat, hopped up in to it and my thighs fit...then the overhead bar came down and it fit over my boobs...and locked! I FIT in the seat! Cool ride, all 50 seconds of it. Then off to Batman, again AWESOME! After the first ride, I never thought about not fitting again. It was sad to see a few folks having to get off but I didn't look or stare once I knew what was happening because I understood their frustration. The heat kept most folks away so there weren't very long lines on anything. Some rides we didn't even have to get off of to ride two or even three times.
Even though it was 105 degrees, I managed to stay hydrated, but ate what I could, which was a hamburger sans the bun and part of a pretzel. I had eaten a good breakfast and once we got back in the car I had some grilled chicken slices to eat and a protein drink for the way home.
I slept like the kid that I was yesterday, all night long and perfectly still. I had thought I'd wake up sore like I'd been thrown around all day and I wasn't. I call my big day a LITTLE success!
I can't wait until next season...I'm getting a season pass.
Ride a roller coaster....CHECK!
