I am constantly worried about my mares weight atm so wanted to get some subjective opinions on her. How do you think she looks?

Sorry if they're huge
 
Thanks for your replies. she's about 20, now retired due to arthritis, so if she puts any weight on I can't get it off through exercise so I'm trying to carefully monitor her. She's 565kg on the weight tape atm and is 16.2 ISH
 
well covered, lovely looking girl. I wouldnt put anymore on, but we have the winter coming up and I like to see them with a little bit to keep them warm and through the majority of the winter - especially as they get older.
 
she does look over weight but at this time of year going into the winter soon, it's not really a problem because i think it's nice to have them a bit porky to keep them warm ad incase they loose any weight.
 
She is out 24/7 on grass but not loads of grass (see the picture!) and I have been muzzling her for a few hours a day (about 3 - while i'm there and riding) but I have just increased her to having in on for a full day 3 x a week (only this week) so will see if that helps slightly as I don't want her to have any more on her at all, she looks huge to me!
