From fat to fit ( A plus size riders diary)

The before and after pics are a great motivator. My daughter had to lose weight after both pregnancies. Often she couldn't see a difference looking in the mirror, but when she looked at her pics she'd taken for her weight loss "diary" she'd see a massive difference.

I have lost a stone and half at slimming world this autumn. I was busy trying on jackets coats and riding wear this week as having a clear out. Well my jack Murphy size 18 coat fits now at long last. I have come down from a size 24 over the last few years :)

I am doing lots at the stables to keep warm been raking leaves and cleaning the tack shed alsorts.

Very pleased with my progress so far 😀🤞
 
Walking a lot more at the farm. Now I have Rex ... I need to get into a size 16 next.

I have been following a page the highland packhorse it’s a fabulous page about a guy and his highland ponies who camp in Scotland. He runs camping trips I plan to join one when I am fit enough. It looks amazing.So another inspiration for me to get fitter and slimmer.

But proud of how far I am now. Just got to keep looking on the thread to see how far i have come.

Still lots to aim for. I am feeling better in myself. New challenges and goals to set for me. I still find it hard to believe Melody is gone, my weigh loss journey Was on hold as I fell off the wagon. But ready to re start again now. I am in the right frame of mind again.

Loving life again ❤️😁 I have lots to look forward too.C20F1B9B-CF9E-498C-B68E-C7EA6F660D57.jpeg
 
Well I went shopping for some now clothes...... whooooo hoooo I get in size 16 now 😁😁😁

I cannot believe how far I have come. I walk morning and evening at my local park 10,000 to 15,000 steps most days.

Healthy eating ..... eat less, move more. Long way to go but half way through my weight loss journey.

I have lost 4 stone. It has made such a difference all round. I am
Now just half a stone to go to be a normal bmi. I no longer cringe at photos of me riding and Robin def appreciates it. I am much more secure in the saddle and getting on is so much easier.
