Fattys just been weighted he's 577 kilos his top wieght was 760 when obese he's gone from obese shuffling cob to lean mean hunting machine . It's taken over two years though.
Seriously chuffed makes all that hard work in summer worth it.
 
Long slow diet in work all year round using boots Part of the time BF in the school for lunging .discovering staight chopped straw chaff on here was a great turning point to as was going onto a strict BF type diet .
Long thin strip for summer ( I hated that keeping him away from his friends )but it had a good view and a nice shed which he loved using in the rain.
I unfortunately don't think I have a before picture I am a techno phobe ?
But will get some after ones and try to work out how to post them.
It's taken forever but he's transformed and it's lovely now he can have add lib haylage and he's so happy and so am I found it upsetting especially when he was on steriods and very hungry.
Vet said wieght is perfect and condition spot for a hard fit horse but I will let him loose more as a cushion for summer.
We took him to the beach on Monday he was dancing on his toes with excitement the old fatty could hardly raise a trot and was all ears back and scowling.
 
Well done to you, I have just got one who is obese it is going to take a long time to get the weight off him,nice to hear it can be done as it looks like an impossible task at the moment.
 
Excellent! Well done! What a difference in weight. I am finding it hard enough to shift just 50 kg off my mare. Just 20 to go now though.
