[Six Flags Great America] - Will I fit as a heavyset man?

Hi! I'm a pretty overweight guy (6'0, 290 lbs, 48" waist but I can suck my gut in to about 44" without much discomfort, 50" hips, 30" thighs), and I haven't been to Great America since I was a kid. My dad (when I was young) was able to ride most of everything with me, and I'm about his size now, but I was unable to fit a coaster in my city's local 4th of July pop-up carnival a few years ago, so I'm curious whether or not I'll be able to do something like Six Flags Great America nowadays.

I especially want to try X-Flight since I was always too scared to ride it as a kid, and I want to finally conquer it, so that's the one I'm especially curious about. Raging Bull as well, although that's lower on my radar.

What coasters do you guys think I could fit, and what coasters should I not bother with?
