Im planning a trip to japan with my boyfriend half a year from now. And I was really excited at first until I realized, I’m way bigger than the average person there. I’m a size 3xl us and carry a lot of my weight around my stomach. I’m afraid all the excitement and fuss about wanting to visit amusement parks such as universal japan, disney sea, and disney land will be crushed due to my size.
Has anyone plus size been to these places and tried the rides?

The seat sizing seemed pretty standard so I would say maybe try and visit a local theme park and see how you get on there? I will say though that there are a few signs at disney stating that bigger body dimensions may prevent riding a few rides.
6’4″ ~280 2XLT shirt size. Most of my weight is in my chest/belly
Did not go to USJ
Sea
Tower of Terror – no issue
Indiana Jones® Adventure: Temple of the Crystal Skull – no issue
Journey to the Center of the Earth – no issue
Land
Pirates of the Caribbean – no issue
Jungle Cruise: Wildlife Expeditions – No issue
Snow White’s Adventures – No issue
Space Mountain – fit, but tight.
Monsters, Inc. Ride & Go Seek! – fit, but tight.

On rides that were 2 people per seat, they just put me alone and the rest of the group in another row.
This is also a good question to ask on r/rollercoasters
