Go On Amusement Park Rides!
April 27, 2016Being overweight or morbidly obese has its limitations. One of them is going to an amusement park and be able to fit on the rides comfortably. Many of members of the bariatric community often share their experiences of going to an amusement park with their friends or families, stand in line, get up to board the ride and are unable to fit in the seat. When this occurs, it causes disappointment for the person and the people with them. It is quite understandable that this is a goal that many WLS'ers want to achieve!
