Anyone else tried the horse-stress diet?!

It's great, I've lost 5lbs in the last 2 weeks!!
Basically it goes like this...
1. Get yourself over-horsed with a beautifully gifted but highly bouncey TB
2. Add icy conditions to & from the field
3. Make the ground so hard that he can't be ridden for 18 days
4. Throw in a pony in season, just for added excitement
5. Listen to lots of conflicting advice about feed & turnout
6. And don't forget 5 inches of snow, just to upset the new (though not ideal) routine again
Fun, fun, fun!!

Another factor to possibly add into the diet:

Your 4x4 is taken off you and used by OH to go to work, so all journeys to and from stables have to be done on foot!
