I haven't been able to do that in at least 15 years, maybe longer, and I'm only 30. It was incredible! I have to say it was one of the best post-op moments I've had so far. It really proved to me just how far I've come, especially when I don't necessarily see it in myself. What an amazing feeling to be able to get on a ride and know that I'll fit. For the first time in my life, I actually felt normal. I absolutely love my RNY,

i have been there before. i was asked one time to get off the ride at a carnival so others could enjoy it. they said my weight was messing up the ride. i was so embarrased.


congrates on your ride!

that is so great. eventually your brain will catch up but it takes awhile unfortunately. i suggest taking lots of pictures of yourself now so you can get to know the new you. btw awesome on the rides. that is one thing i truly missed as i got bigger. i'm still a bit too big for some stuff but most things i can do now. (((hugs)))
