how much do you think equipment ways...i.e english leather saddle (17" i think for 13.3hh pony), bridle, hat, body protector, numnah...
i know its going to be very inprecise and varied but im just curious as to, in general, how much everything ways
also wondering how much weight im gonna aim to lose to be less guilty about riding my little ponio aha xx

Average of 1.5 stone. Obviously some saddles can be quite light, and others, up to 3 stone (western ones).

your riding boots can make a hell of a difference too...
mine are steel toe capped and weigh a ton!

Stick it on the scales. Weigh yourself as normal, then again wearing full kit & holding saddle.
