Boob job with helium?
Size 18/20 at 17/18 stone? I was an 18/20 at 14.5 stone!
Big Ben - what happens when your OH has a bit of bitty tho - does he speak in mickey mouse voice forever after ? Does the helium get sucked out ?
I haven't read all the comments, but could she try driving? 21 stone I think is personally too heavy to ride, but other than being on the ground there are brilliant ways to get involved! Horses can pull more than they can carry, and whilst there are no riding schools I know of dedicated to driving, you could contact the BDS and see if you could get a number of someone closer to you, and book some lessons. It doesn't seem such a big sport from far, but once you have participated a few times it's lovely! I thought I wouldn't like it because it wasn't that close contact you feel when riding, but it really is similar. This way, she could enjoy being around horses and doing something other than groundwork with them.
Then, if she does take a liking to driving, while she does this, she could lose weight for her own personal benefit, and by then she will have gathered adequate experience around horses ready for her to get aback in the saddle
Well, I think that if she can actually ride, with the right horse there is no rasn why someone of 21 stone should not ride.

I'm the opposite end of the scale, I'm 5"6, weigh aprox 12 stone (too many choccies at Christmas oops ) and I'm a size 12 clothing, I am a lot heavier than I look
So that is around 17 stone. Interesting that the US calvary said the same in 1920.
If you think that a man could weigh about 13-14 stone, plus saddle and kit and the horse would be regarded as fit and not overweight. This is for all day riding though, not galloping and jumping fences. The width across the loins is what I was told too, that tends to be an american thing, we tend to look at width across the chest.
So there is the answer to the person who weighs 21 stone - you have to loose weight!
