Fellow Equestrians?
There used to be a group for fellow equestrians where we could check in and set goals, talk about our fitness routines, our shows, our horses in general... not sure where it went? not sure how to start a group - not sure if we still can?? Any other riders out there interested in chatting?

How many calories are really burned?
So I know I can't get an answer unless I buy a FitBit or something and actually figure it out on my own....but I always just do MFP generic input for horse back riding - and I round about how many minutes I rode for and it gives me a number... but obviously you burn more jumping, or posting no stirrups, then you do just…

Can someone explain daily calories burned?
I'm confused. I'm sedentary most of the day - I sit from about 5am until 4pm - then I'm moving until about 8, then sitting again. MFP has me on 1200 calories a day - so, it's assuming this is how many I burn on any given day? I just recently installed an app on my phone that tracks how many steps I take in a day and links…

Recomend a vanilla meal replacement shake please
Specifically - I was wondering if anyone has ever tried Advocare's vanilla - I just want to know if it tastes good. I tried the chocolate and liked it, but I feel like chocolate would hide 'strange' flavors better than vanilla... Not really interested in spending the $$ on Shakology - though I heard it was delicious - so…

I know it's because she love's me...
But my mom's really been getting on my nerves about me trying to loose weight. Every time I see her she tells me "you've lost enough, don't lose anymore" then she will grab whatever person we are near and try to get them to agree with her. She catches herself and appologizes, but it makes me irritated and even gets a…

How many calories are really burned?
Does anyone use a HRM when they ride?? I know that we all burn calories at completely different rates...but I'm interested in seeing what riding actually does burn - because - unless I'm jumping in a lesson, i don't feel like I'm breathing all that heavy... but maybe I just don't realize it because Im actually having fun?…

am I sedentary?
Ok, please don't make me regret asking this question here... I'm asking because there are a lot of sucessful people here who know what they are doing... not because i want to start a fight or get bashed... <---- walks in room hesitently for fear of the message boards... I joined this site not long ago at all and said I was…

Done it? Love it? Hate it? Scary cult like pushers? Totally worth it?

The two servings of fruit I have a day put me over - Im eating pinnaple alot, which is…

Just starting
Just finished the Advocare 24 day challenge a few days ago and picked up on here where I left off. I'm really going to try to stick to the diet that program laid out for me - which was more frequent, small meals, just less of it...and limiting my junk food / pasta binging at 10 oclock at night... One of my biggest…
