    I love taking English Hunt Seat horse riding lessons. At many schools, there is a 250 pound weight limit on riding school horses. I won't miss worrying about that limit or feeling like I'm big enough

Yes to not missing so many of the same things. Yes, to not missing bumping into walls, tables, ... & all the resulting upper thigh bruises. Yes, to loving being able to buy any clothing I like, except in stores that don’t stock small enough sizes. Yes, to loving being able to zip up long boots. Yes, to not missing having to sit down & physically lift one leg up over the other to put on tights. Yes, to not missing being knocked & bumped because my body oozes over the seat into the aisle on planes.

Love that I don’t need the entire bath sheet to dry myself anymore - half an ordinary towel is ample. Love I am able to play with my nieces & nephews longer & don’t need to sit down after a couple of minutes. And I love that two of them can sit next to me on an armchair with one on my lap now.

I can paint my toenails now without being a contortionist!
