Hello COTH'ers (and friends)! Now that the days are longer and the weather is more cooperative (maybe it's cooperative at 6 in the morning for our southern peeps and 6 at night for our northern peeps, and probably just right for flies and mosquitos all the time, darn it), I gotta take advantage and ride more. And if I'm going to ride more, I gotta be honest about my calorie intake. Anyone else out there want to share tips and approaches, for the sake of our equines?

SW: 205 (poor pony! Fortunately he is the strong and stocky type)
GW: 130 (He would be able to fly, if I weighed that little)

    Okay guys - i'm still in this thing. Been hung up the last few months at the same weight but i haven't gained so i've got that going for me. Been riding when i can - horsey's had some on again / off again gimpiness dangit, but i THINK we're back on track. Now i need to get down a couple sizes so i fit in my show clothes, preferably by October when i might actually show him! Luck is on my side, the garden is starting to come in, and in harvest season i eat WAY more fresh veggies, and that seriously cuts down my calorie counts. LETS DO THIS THING!

    Hi Buffy! I am back after a few months off. I hope you are still doing well. I am in FL for the winter without a scale. I need to keep myself on track.
