Have a big shire thoroughbred cross - 17.2 in shoes lol! He is really hubby's horse and does cross country and hunting. My guy is a little fat cob - he's pretty much retired now but still bossing the others about in the field! The way you're going with the vsg you'll be riding again in no time!

Hi Lis and mcteez! Thanks for replying! Just checked out your photos Lis, you look amazing! Well done!!! mcteez - feeling ok about it, bit nervous only because tried so many times to lose weight and failed. Really can't face another failure but the posts here are so inspiring giving me some confidence. Had talked to my GP but the wait far too long so am self funding. How are you feeling about the surgery? I need to lose about 140llbs overall. That's half my current body weight - just seems so completely unachievable! Snoop x

Hi everyone- I'm based in the UK - Scotland to be precise, most of you seem to be USA, just wondering if anyone is closer to home? My surgery is scheduled for 5th May in Belgium - really wish it would get here quick! The forum is great - really helped me make up my mind and go for this, so inspiring!

Hi there - yes I am a horse lover! We have 2 horses as well, but I leave the riding to my husband as too fat at the moment. My surgery is cheduled for 5 May and hoping that I will lose enought to ride again in the not too distant future! What do you do with your horses and what type are they?
