Hi Everyone
I'm new to this and used to love riding until I had 3 kids! Now I need to get back in shape and ride when they are at school!

Hi there - I love showing but haven't been able to squeeze into my gear for a couple of years now, and I refuse to buy a larger size. Consequently, my beautiful riding horse has been a paddock ornament for far too long. It makes me feel so guilty every time I look out of the window (though I'm sure he thinks it's a wonderful arrangement really, haha) :) I'm determined to be back out competing by the end of the year. No excuses!

Thanks so much Peggy! I'm in New Zealand - the show season here runs from October/November to April. My aim is to get my boy out for at least a few outings during that time. I've also got this ex-racehorse girl to start but she is so dainty that I simply will not get on board until I am a more reasonable weight. I need to lose at least 20 pounds before I'd be happy riding her.

Beautiful!!! That's awesome, Jen! The girl who has taken care of my horses for decades is my bff. She has three stables and over a dozen horses of her own that I can ride any time. They go Western, and I guess that's OK to start and just trail ride. I ride English, but can go Western, even tried sidesaddle LOL. Hope to get another English boy, would love a Fresian. BTW, I'm in the USA, east coast. Hope to chat again. Keep up the good work! Hey, back in the saddle soon! :)

Hello! I was an avid equestrian before I had a serious auto accident several years ago. I used to compete in Eventing (English dressage, stadium jumping, cross country jumping), trail/pleasure ride, and drive my horses. One of my major fitness goals is to start riding again this year. I need to drop another 30 lbs. and continue my fitness journey before I feel like I'm strong enough and my center of gravity won't be off and I'll be safe to ride again. So excited to find this group! I just finished a Kickstarter and Won it and I also started a Transformer game at the same time, just Won Rounds 1 and 2!

I'm new to dietbet and decided it would be a good idea to get more connected with others with similar interests if I am going to make this work. I have 2 pasture ornaments that have been trained, but I have not been working with because of my weight (low energy levels) and stress at work. I made some changes at work and joined dietbet and Parellisavvyclub at the same time. I ride western for trail rides.

Has anyone read this? I'm thinking that it will be my reward to myself after I win this dietbet. (Yes, I'm feeling pretty confident these days) :D

That looks awesome, Myrgthe!!! I just added it to my Amazon Wish List :) I am currently doing crunches and leg lifts for core/abdominal strengthening, but need to move on to more challenging exercise as my muscles get stronger. That has always been my problem area. Thanks for posting!
