fat girls are out of place in the show ring and they will never place.
That is my view I am not saying that to be mean its just what I tell myself.
I am wanting to show in the dressage ring and well... "fat girls" are really out of place there. So it is my goal to lose 80 pounds and be a size two by next summer. Its a year away so less than 10 pounds a month. I want to do this in a healthy way this time. I want to do it in a way that keeps it off and teach myself how to be a healthier person.
I figure if I join this thread I will have some accountability for my actions and choices and keep me motivated.
So wish me luck I have a year to be a size 2.
*note to self... you look sick smaller than an 8 so really all skin and bones not attractive*

Hey -
good luck working towards your goal! 10lbs a month is still a pretty aggressive goal - that's more than 2lbs a week, so be patient.
Also curious - you put a note to yourself that you look sick smaller than a size 8 - yet your goal is a size 2? Why not just aim for a size 8 then where you feel you look healthy?
