Welcome aboard and a huge congratulations on your weight loss!

Let's see... Deena. Her show name is Deep South and she is a 5 year old Warmblood filly by Don Alfredo. Beautiful mover and jumper I bought her when she was 9 months old (as an investment), but she has quickly become part of the family We took this season off from showing to work on the nitty gritty... Back to the ring the fall/winter! I'm so ready for next years show season!

Welcome! Cody, my 15yr old solid sorrel paint mare, is my largest motivation to lose weight. I've lost 41lbs in just under 5 months. The majority of my fitness pals on this site are also horse women and we LOVE talking about our horses and logging our exercise with them

Oh - Cody & I are training for competitive trail competitions with ACTHA next summer. We've been together just over a year and also practice western pleasure. Cody's registered name is Miss Zippo Cody of Zippo Jack Bar and Old Joe Cody lines.

Congrats on your weight loss accomplishments! I started at 245 and hope to be right around 175 when finished. Feel free to add me if you'd like!

And again, WELCOME!!!

I'm new to MFP too! And i'm losing my weight for my horses! I think they are the best motivation for weight loss.

I am new too! I have a 12 year old anglo arab dressage horse and after a year or so of lameness issues, we are now back in training and hope to start competing at training level and first next year in the spring. This is a HUGE motivator for me.....I want people to be looking at how beautiful my horse is, not how lumpy my thighs look in tight white breeches :noway:

Hay there I have been riding since I was 6, well probably since I could walk really, but more serious riding since I was about 6. I have an arabian quarter horse whom i have had for the last 13 years!
