I live in Orlando and for exercise I’m making a video series that shows you the size of the seats on rides at theme parks.

Two years ago I was on top of the world as far as my weight goes. I was able to lose over 110 pounds with diet and exercise. Then I moved to Orlando and started working from home.

My wife and I got a little home sick and depressed and wanted to eat at our favorite restaurants all the time when we first got here. So we both kinda slipped off the wagon. I let my guard down and got lazy after slipping back into old habits. I gained 80 pounds back slowly over the last year. Working from home, I spend a lot of time in the house so recently I decided I needed a hobby that would get me out of the house.

My wife and I have annual passes to Disney, and I have one for Universal Studios. But I can’t fit on some of the rides due to my height and weight, which makes going sometimes a bummer. **(I am 6'8" and weigh 360lb.)** And several rides aggravate aches and pains that I have. I remember getting off of a ride or two and thinking to myself I wish they warned you about how that ride whips your neck.

On top of getting back on the dieting wagon, to get some exercise and be helpful to other people I started reviewing the rides from a big and tall perspective. I'm making videos that show the seats of rides and using myself as a yard stick to educate viewers. My hope is that these videos help people to get out and enjoy a family vacation. I want to empower people with knowledge about all the rides and attractions that I can.

My channel is called Parks in Your Pocket. https://youtu.be/5o4QIt8J3UQ

I’m not great at it and I’m always looking for feedback and critiques. So if you can think of things that would be helpful to include I’ll do my best.
