Just got back from Alton Towers, initially I was extremely worried as despite losing over 4 stone i was concerned I wouldn't fit on the rides.
However no need to worry because I did!! All the major coasters were fine, this was a big deal for me because I'm a massive fan of theme parks and because of my size haven't been able to go for years.
I mean this is it, this is really it, I'm actually getting my life back and I'm starting to live again, like a (dare I say it) a normal person. It's what it's all about and it's all thanks to Lighter Life. I will be eternally grateful for the programme.
I'm writing for two reasons, first because I want to share my happiness with you all and second, I want to give a heads up for any person who is contemplating going to a theme park but is unsure due to their size.
I'm still a very big bloke, 20st and a half give or take a few pounds with a chest measurement of 52". All the major rides have the bigger seats which accommodate a chest size of 54" so I was fine. The only one where I needed a bit of persuasion was Rita (not a person, the ride) but I still got in ok.
Very, very happy indeed!!
