Thank you for showing a side of being plus size that people don’t understand , having just got back from Disneyland Paris and the worry I wouldn’t fit on a few rides(luckily I did) it’s so embarrassing - one day I will hopefully make myself a bucket list of rides without the anxiety like you x
🥹🤍 I’m so happy you managed to ride everything you wanted! ❤ it really is a horrible feeling and experience having the anxiety and worry then not being able to fit on, such a fun place like a theme park, can actually cause a lot of worry and almost takes the fun out of it! Which is why when I was bigger I didn’t love universal as much! ❤ xxxxx
@@catherinekayy you look amazing by the way - I’ve followed your weight loss journey from the beginning and it’s inspirational xx
Bless your kind soul Catherine! It’s amazing to see you reach your goals.
❤
I’m proud of you Catherine. People don’t understand it’s like having post traumatic stress disorder. I myself lost 60 pounds and cannot believe how healthy I feel. I can actually walk around the parks and not get winded!😊
Wow 🥹🥹🤍 well done on turning your life around and feeling healthier! That is the most important of it all ❤ thank you for watching! 🥹🤍
So happy for you, Cat. I got my surgery late Oct, and am down 114 pounds! Haven’t gone to a theme park yet, but just had my first international flight since the surgery and didn’t need a seatbelt extension and had so much room. Can’t wait to try out all the rides I couldn’t go on at Universal!
Holy smokes 😮 114 lbs since October is AMAAAZING ❤ oh my goodness flights become so much more comfortable, I love that I can finally have the tray table down 😂 which is something I could never do before! ❤ 😮 heheh congratulations on your amazing success and journey!
people will really starve themselves, put themselves at terrible health risks with gastric bypass when they can just diet and exercise, i find it so crazy that people will put their lives and health in danger for an easier way
@@MotivationCRE People would really rather take time out of their miserable life to click on a video knowing that it’s on a subject that they don’t agree with and go even further to comment on said video trying to shame someone for THEIR choice to undergo a procedure on THEIR body while at the same time showing that they not only know anything about the procedure, but also that they believe diet and exercise be the only possible way to lose weight (because you know, hey, every single person is exactly the same).
There’s SO much that goes into it, though. It’s definitely not easy. You’re also not starving yourself… you seem to be very misinformed about the procedure, pre- and post op process, and science behind the procedure. I’m not sure where you live, but in the US, we probably have a higher risk of getting shot while at school, going to the store, or church than having a rare case of complications from gastric bypass surgery that’s been performed for over 50 years…. or any commonly practiced surgical procedure at that.
I used to think it was an “easy” way out too; for YEARS (while dieting and exercising btw) I was anti-surgery. Best decision I ever made for MYself. I hope one day you can be happy too.
I love seeing before and afters with people's weightloss journeys and I know it sounds weird but I had to take the time to scroll down to see when you started to make changes and I am finally happy to see someone who has gone through a similar surgery for their journey as me! Also the fact that you still eat what you like and maintain/lose the weight makes me appreciate you even more. Unlike other youtubers who dedicated to legit starving themselves or restrict so much and constant exercises. You enjoy your life and I needed to see this. Thank you and I'm planning to binge watch your videos once I'm home from work (: Instantly subscribed to you!!
Hehe I’m glad it made you happy in some way! Thank you so much! 🥹🥹🌸
So excited for you Catherine, and your weight loss journey. I too have struggled with my weight for my entire life and I can relate to some of the experiences/feelings that you shared with us. As a 56 year old it is hard to lose any weight, but you are inspiring me to just keep trying! Thank you.
Thank you so so much Andrea, I know the struggle! 🌸 Thank you so so much for watching YOU DA BEST
Thank you for sharing this! A lot of people don’t think twice about inclusivity on ride vehicles. Your video is so encouraging for those who have been traumatized by the experience of not fitting on rides but I hope also helps spur more conversation about the need for inclusive ride vehicles without weight shaming park goers. Love your vlogs!
Thank you so so much! Im so happy you enjoyed it ✨😍 Yes I think you only really know the feeling if you have been through it yourself!
You're looking great Catherine! You look very happy :) I am glad your surgery and efforts are so effective
Good for you, Catherine! It’s an INCREDIBLE achievement you’ve made!!! I’m glad you were able to ride the rides worry-free.🥰I like your checklist…it’s a great idea!👏🤩🌸
heheh aww thank you so much! The checklist is a fun way to reach your goals! It helps keep me on track! 🌸
You should be so proud of yourself! When you lose weight sustainably, life just becomes so much better in so many ways. You feel better and it opens up so many more opportunities to live and enjoy life. High Five to you!
Oh my goodness thank you so so much 🥹🤍
Victoria's a dang delight
She’s the best 🥹🌸
I don't know how RUclips knows I'm trying to lose weight so I don't have to worry about getting on rides at theme parks, but I'm SO glad the algorithm brought me here. Well done for achieving your goal of not worrying on theme park rides!!! Subscribed, and I will come back to this video when I'm having a rough day 😊
That must've been such a cool experience!! I loved watching your enthusiasm on Victoria's channel for some of the scarier rides lol. YOLO. But you look amazing and even though we don't know each other, I feel so damn proud of your achievement.
Oh and also, I had been overweight my whole life and was always self conscious at amusement parks. Some rides are just really small and I totally know what you mean by feeling emotional about it. I think no matter how much you slim down, sometimes that inner insecure gal creeps in. But I'm glad you are so much more confident in yourself now!
Thank you so so so much 🥹🤍🥹🤍🥹 hehehe I do love a good thrill ride 😂 I think I love adrenaline hehehe
Also thank you for always sending love and support here and on Katnipp your AMAZING YOU DA BEST 🥹🤍
Aww, thank you for sharing your experience, Catherine. I felt emotional just watching you! I hope as time goes on your anxiety fades into the far, far distance 💛
heheh oh my goodness thank you so much, and thank you for all the support and encouragement it really means the world!
Oh that is so wonderful that you fit on the rides!!! I went to both Disney and Universal in April of last year. I lost 30 lbs before I went and luckily I was able to fit on everything that I tried. I was about 230 lbs at the time that I went. Now I’ve gained all my weight back and more. I’m going through the process of getting the gastric bypass now and the first thing on my list to do is another trip to Disney/Universal for my 1 year after surgery date! I know I’ll be able to ride everything without any problems! Watching you gets me even more excited!
eeeek good luck with your exciting new health journey! I wish you all the best, honestly the difference is crazy, its crazy to me that I can just get on and not worry, it doesn't feel real even now!
@@catherinekayy The one ride I was super scared I wasn’t going to be able to ride was Escape from Gringots. The ride was down at the time so I was waiting to get on it and I asked one of the workers there if I could try the tester seat because otherwise it made no sense for me to stand there waiting for the ride to come back up. He looks at me and says “Oh honey you won’t have any problem fitting!”. I was thinking there is no way I’ll fit.. But I fit! If I would not have lost the 30 lbs before I went, I would not have fit at all. So I think, like you, I will always have it in the back of my mind of ‘will I fit?’
You are doing amazing! So happy for both you and Dean. Thank you for sharing and being an inspiration❤
🥹🤍🥹 tysm!
Be very proud of yourself, Catherine ❤
You have done so well. Loving sharing your journey ❤
I randomly came across your video, love it! Going to a theme park is serious motivation to lose weight ☺
I had a vacation booked to universal last year, and I was so worried I wouldn’t fit on all of the rides that I lost 30 lbs. When we went I had no issues and we are planning on going back in two weeks 💕
hehe aww thank you so much So glad you enjoyed the vlog too! hehe 🌸 it feels so great not having to worry too much, it definately becomes alot more fun!
I love this video so much. I just started a new weight loss/exercise program today and this is just what I needed to see to help me stay strong on this first day. I have always had issues with the rides in Universal. Watching you experience those rides with no anxiety makes me so happy for you and gives me hope!! 💖💖
Oh my goodness thank you so much, Honestly if you told me this two years ago I wouldn't of believed you! You really can change your life if you want to!
I think on Tron, the two back seats are for people who find it difficult to ride the bikes for whatever reason. They’re more like seats I think rather than bikes. Good for people with mobility issues too I think.😊
my experience is different but i completely understand what you’re talking about, Catherine. i get anxiety when taking public transport, because the seats aren’t very big person friendly, and it’s just difficult to move past other passengers to get to a seat.
Well done Catherine! Loved this Vlog. Great timing on the rides and weather. Cowfish is one of my fav's !
🥹🤍🤍 tysm for watching
Me and Paul LOVED the VelociCoaster! Such an incredible ride xxx
Catherine, I am so glad you came up on my recommended because I had the same issues! I never went to Universal because I knew I wasn't going to fit. In fact, the tipping put for me was not being able to fit on Kali River Rapids at WDW. Now, I can ride EVERYTHING after WLS. Keep up the great work.
What an emotional journey! So, so happy for you! ❤
Your videos are actual goals Catherine Omg 😍 Also you should be so proud of yourself! You're doing amazing!
🥹🥹🥹 omg thank you so so much! Hehe I just need to work on my camera skills lol 😂 my footage is always so shaky I need to calm the hell down when I’m excited 😂 ❤
Catherine- I am so deeply happy for you. As a plus size girl, I found your business channel years ago and you inspired me so much as an amazing plus size creator. Fast forward to now, and you still inspire me with your journey. Thank you for bringing us along the ride ♥️
🥹🥹🤍 oh my goodness thank you so so much for all the support this honestly means so much. ❤ 🥹 YOU DA BEST
Congratulations on your weight loss! I’m glad you enjoyed your Universal trip.
Thank you so so much!
Omg hahaha! You and I need to go through a proper movie list to get you started watching all the classics, lol! I hope you've watched the Bourne series by now; it's such a great action series! Xoxo
Incredible experience, you must have felt like the queen of the world in your triumph!! :)
You are so amazing, this video made me happy but I did get a little emotional. So proud of you and Dean! Thanks for sharing this 😊

Oh my goodness heheh thank you soso much Annie, this actually is such a huge compliment hehe, Im so happy you've been enjoying all the content! Thank you for watching YOU DA BEST 🌸
Im so pleased for you! I totally get ride anxiety, its horrible. I went to thorpe park with a friend, I fit on all their rides (JUST!) it takes a guy coming round and really shoving it down (im 101kg) to get me on. But we queued for colussus and this is the ONE ride I do not fit on. Its an older ride with really tight harness and the guy just couldnt get it to click. He had to pause the ride and he said he CAN get it to go down but he had already tried for about 10 seconds. I told him dw because i was embarassed and said my friend could still ride, bless her she didnt want to without me. We waited an hour and a half to get on and because I had already been on the others, and I know the rides well so know I can fit, I thought id be ok on colussus but I just wasnt. It sucks. Its so embarassing being pulled off. Also I do struggle with tight harnesses like thorpe parks Swarm ride. It is SO constricting and because I am size G bra its just so squished.
I just wanted to let you know that your videos are beautiful the color in the way you show Disney is one of the best I’ve seen thanks
Oh wow thank you so much 🥹🌸
You have done amazing well done you you should be soo proud a great video thank you for sharing x
Tysm 🤍🥹🥹
I’m so happy for you! I’m glad you had such a positive experience this time! 💕 The Hulk is the worst ride haha. We used to be passholders and I refuse to ride it anymore because it always gives me a headache from banging around. The Velocicoaster is wild! I rode it the day before I found out I was pregnant haha. Hope to meet you at Disney one day!
Oh no hehe, hopefully it will be okay! Its soooooo good though isn't it, its so smooth but fast oh man wish I rode it twice hahah 🤣
you should be so proud of yourself loosing 121 LBS and vlogging about it so that others can share in your journey and know that anything is possible
Oh my gosh thank you so much Andy! 🌸 It's really crazy how much your life can change in a year! Thank you for watching! YOU DA BEST
❤ Aww fabulous, you have done yourself proud 🎉 I totally understand as a larger lady myself xx
Thank you so so much 😭🌸
I grew up in Orlando and went to the parks all the time with no issues, after I had my baby I had gained weight and still fit in the seats but it was so tight and uncomfortable. I haven't gone back to ride rides since because it was such a punch to my self esteem.
Well done Catherine!!! ❤
Tysm 🥹🤍🥹
Congratulations!
Thank you so much hehe
Awe I fell the same way being mid size. I always think “im not skinny, I hope I fit” and I do fit them but it’s just a thought. Very silly
I do remember going on one of those rides and this man didn’t fit and he got up so fast and left everyone was wondering what’s going on even the workers were confused and worried. Losing weight for health reason is good though.
Btw I paused your list and to carry a baby healthy is so touching, I can not wait for babies for you and dean. 💗🥰
🥹🥹🤍 I really hope it’s in the plan for us hehehe fingers crossed 🥹🤍 thank you so so much xxxx I have been in that man’s situation many times, I hope no one judged him badly 🤍🤍 xxxx
@@catherinekayy no one judged. We were more concerned why he left. It wasnt til a while we understood but no one judged.
Alot of people think others are judging but in reality not everyone is. Its like going to the gym no one cares because we are all there for the same reason to be healthy 😃 confidence is key 👌
Loving this vlog series 🥰♥️x
You are awesome!
oh what a lovely thing to say ehehh thank you so much!
Hi Catherine, looks like you had a fun time with your friend :) xo
Hehehe the best time 🥹🤍🌼
so happy for you!
Tysm 🥹🤍
Love your eyelashes - are they strips or just amazing mascara ? What magic has created these 🤣🤣 xx
heheh they are Strips from Amazon!
They look great x
Yeah don’t wear earrings when u know ur riding big coasters. My sisters earrings ripped out her ears once on space in dlp
Its funny because I never noticed your weight. To me you have always been beautiful! Inside and out! Xoxo
🥹🥹🤍🤍🤍🤍 omg this actually makes me so happy thank you so so much!
So happy for you! I've been dreaming of going to disney and universal for a couple of years now (I've never been) and this has been a worry of mine. I'm plus size and disabled and so I struggle to exercise.Tthis means the weight is really difficult to keep off and stop gradual gaining. I'm starting to think about weight loss surgery from watching your videos, and ill need to do some more research to see if it would work for me. would you recommend it overall? I love watching your videos :)
That ET ride was like absolute acid nightmare fuel omg 😂
It actually is 😂 I wonder what Steven Spielberg was on when he filmed/wrote this 😂
It was a traumatic experience for you so you get anxious about it just heal now and look at it as a experience you needed to change use it for strength now 💪
Aww thank you so much ehehhe ⭐️
It is literally PTSD! It is so traumatic an so embarassing, even if your loved ones support you they will never understand the anxiety walking up to the seat.
Hi babe, hope you dont mind my asking, but is this the last Orlando video? Thanks!!
It is my lovely it’s the end of the series I decided not to vlog every single day for a change because my friend was blogging daily hehe 🥹💖💖💖 I hope you enjoyed it! I have loads more florida series here and on my main channel @katnipp too! 🥹🌸🤍
@catherinekayy thanks! Just wanted to make sure i didnt miss any! Thanks, new to your channel, loving your content x
I'm going to Disneyworld in May and I'm a bit worried about getting on all of the rides D:
heads up, disneyworld haunted mansion is not fat people friendly, they had to stop the ride because they had to force the lap bar down to lock, then stop it again to release it to let us off. and im 250
@@eccentricsmithy2746 was that the only ride you ran into problems? I'm about that weight myself
@@hearica3160 anything with a lap bar that only have one locking position seemed to be a issue. Peter pan ride, dwarfs roller-coaster, big thunder roller-coaster, Space mountain and just forget about Tron.
I don't think you should worry if you're 250lbs! 200-260lbs I feel like is a common weight range for most tall men. So I would be surprised if someone, regardless of gender, couldn't fit on the rides. Unless you're super busty lol. The only ones that you might feel uncomfortable in are the super fast rollercoasters.
@@leeraxd I am busty unfortunately 😂 haha
Universal is terrible for this. Most of the HP rides are only good for smaller people. I have seen quite a few people turned away from rides embarrassed. Disney is much more accommodating with larger people.
Well done.
Im over the body confident people who year after year say they are going to do something and don't. I'm all for people being confident, but cringe if they are so unhealthy and say it's good to be so overweight. You may as well promote smoking.
It is so terrible the discrimination, this should be illegal! So many things in life are non inclusive like healthcare, and airline travel….
It is a shame that not everyone has access to things ❤ I hope one day we can build things to try and accommodate all body shapes and sizes ❤
Ok now gain it back
🤣🤣🤣😅
