Horseback riding again thanks to FTS!!
« on: January 21, 2013, 10:41:15 AM »
Hey everybody!  I FINALLY got my own horse!! He is a 6 year old tri-color paint horse, and I'm in love!  Y'all know I have wanted one ever since our daughter got hers this past Spring.  We finally got to go riding TOGETHER for the first time on Saturday, and it was totally wonderful.  Prior to FTS, I never DREAMED my life could be like this again, and NEVER did I believe I could be riding a horse again!  I am having the time of my life.   Also, I am hoping this will give me even more incentive to "finish" this year, and get off the rest of my weight.  I am so happy!!  Thank you FTS!!!

I'm happy for you, Jan.  Finished or not, you should be very proud of yourself.

You all are SO sweet!!   As you can see in the picture, I still carry a lot of weight in my hips & thighs.  I am not strong enough (yet) to pull myself up to get on Rambo.  For now, I stand on the back of the golf cart to get on him.  Hey....it works.  If I ever have to get off on the trail, I'll have to "walk" back to the barn myself.  ha ha   :D
