However, a good way to lose weight, incorporating your love of roller coasters, is to disable the engine and attach the roller coaster to some high tensile rope and tie that rope around you waist, or better yet, your neck.

How Scary is Flight Of Fear at King's Island?
Kings Island's "Flight Of Fear" to me, isn't scary. I think it's one of the best rides at the park and I highly suggest going on it. If you're afraid of the dark, that might be a problem considering how the ride is an inside roller coaster mostly in the dark (but the track is still visible to some extent).
The theme of the ride is aliens. you walk through a mini spaceship to get to the ride and the loading area is designed to look like the inside of a spaceship. The train comes back empty in an attempt to frighten you, so it's obvious that they are trying to scare you. But the ride itself is well worth the fright and makes the ride even more fun!
