Try the test seat if you want to. I think you will be ok.I am so nervous about the FOP. i am 5'8 and almost 300 lbs. I am super nervous. I appreciate reading how everyone has been doing with it.
I don't know about the max size, but when I was there in December, I was wearing a 5XL T-shirt (equal to a 62-inch chest) and I was able to ride RnRC without any difficulty.Out of curiosity, does anyone know or know where to find the max chest size limit for Rock 'n' Roller Coaster?

So, I hope this isn't totally off topic. I'm definitely plus size. And I never ever wear skirts/dresses and haven't owned shorts for over a decade. So I was planning on having to stick to wearing jeans at WDW but was a bit worried that would be hell with the heat and humidity in early/mid September! Then last week I stopped at Lane Bryant to pick up an online order, for you guessed it, more jeans. They were having a buy one get one free sale on all shorts and capris, so I decided-what the hell, I'll try on some, but I don't think I'll like it. Well, lo and behold, I walked out of there with 2 shorts and a skort and they are sooo comfortable! I ended up going back a couple days later and got another 2 pairs of shorts (one in white so I can dye it to match my disney bound outfit). I don't think I necessarily look amazing wearing them, but now I'm not worried about being uncomfortable at WDW! And I just realized, who cares what I look like at WDW as long as I'm enjoying myself!

The first time I rode it I was bigger than you and carried my weight in legs and belly. You will fit fine, although many people (non pool size included) complain about the restraints being uncomfortable. I thought it was fine and it is a super short ride.I am really worried about 7dmt. I am 5'7, 255 lbs and carry all of my weight below the waist. I am currently in a 22 (can squeeze into a 20).
My problem was my height not my weight. I had to bend my knees a certain way to get in. It is a very short ride so it didn't bother me while riding.I am really worried about 7dmt. I am 5'7, 255 lbs and carry all of my weight below the waist. I am currently in a 22 (can squeeze into a 20).
I'm really concerned about 7DMT and FoP. I can't decide if reading the message board and other posts has helped ease some of my fears, or worsened them.
I've lost about 80lbs since January of this year (and still losing). I'm currently 5'1", 210lbs, size 14 pants and more often than not an XL shirt. I know, I know. Reading through out the posts I'm "smaller" than a lot of you wonderful "Pooh sized" people - but the weight-loss journey I'm on has been like 50% physical / 50% mental. I still see/view myself as significantly larger, and I definitely still see myself as "Pooh size."
The last time I was at Disney (definitely a minimum of 80lbs. heavier), FoP wasn't open and I was too scared to even try 7DMT - so I faked sick while the rest of my party went on. I didn't have problems on any other rides, but I do recall some being more uncomfortable than others. This time, I definitely want to ride 7DMT - but man oh man, it's such conflicting reports as to whether or not I'll have issues on 7DMT - and FoP has me terrified.
My 8 day trip isn't until the end of October, so the goal is to lose another 20lbs. before then - but in the event that I don't lose another ounce, I'm just looking for some reassurance (from people who have successfully ridden both rides) that I'll be okay.

Congratulations on your loss! You will be just fine in both rides. I've ridden both, and you will be absolutely fine. Don't give it another worry!I'm really concerned about 7DMT and FoP. I can't decide if reading the message board and other posts has helped ease some of my fears, or worsened them.

Wanted to post a link to a reply I just made in another thread where I show photos of myself and my husband, both solidly pooh-sized, on some rides (7DMT, Space Mountain, Test Track, EE). I'm 5'8", 300-ish lbs. He's the same height, weighed around 350-360 in these photos. Sometimes seeing the photos is helpful for folks who may otherwise be having some anxiety or doubts about whether they can participate!

I relied heavily on the comments here for the encouragement I needed to have a good time in WDW for my last few trips! Wanted to pay it forward
