A Fat Girl & A Fat Horse: Weight Loss Video Log #1

The written A Fat Girl & A Fat Horse blog (http://afatgirlafathorse.blogspot.com) is and always will be devoted to providing encouragement and resources to plus sized riders who face different challenges and prejudices than "average" sized riders. It will never be a "WEIGHT LOSS" blog - because I believe that is the choice and prerogative of every person. Healthy lifestyle is encouraged but not preached.

With that said, the writer of the AFG&AFH blog is heading on a weight loss journey. I will still always be "a fat girl" because of my build and genetics, but I know I can lose some weight and feel better. In the interest of not subjecting my loyal readership to anything they feel preachy, and largely inspired by "DeathOfAFatMan" here on Youtube, I have decided to document my weight loss journey via video blog. This way I can embed the video on the written blog, provide a little blurb and those who choose not to follow that path of my journey can skip over it to the next equestrian aimed blog entry.

I did the weight loss and ended up fatter each time. Now I'm bigger than ever, so I'm not dieting ever again!

@NancyToday I'm curious what methods you used. All I have been doing is eating right and working out... adapting it as a lifestyle. I've been quite successful doing it. No magic pills, no silly rules - just good common sense and getting my blood pumping.

Hey! Have you thought about - fast abs magic (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now)? Ive heard some super things about it and my m8 got beautiful 6 pack abs and lost a truck load of of weight with it.

You are my hero! I myself am overweight, and I feel very self concious about my riding, particularly since I ride a smaller Arabian/Quarter Horse gelding. I always get stares from smaller riders and it bugs me. You are very inspirational! (Yes, I know it's been a year since you posted this, but I just thought I'd tell you how inspired I feel.) :D
