[B_2_B]

i'm the same as you deadpan!

 

[Honeypots]

I fluctuate between 12 and 13 stone...13 ATM

I ride a 15.2hh heavyweight cobbie, a 13.1hh connie type pony and recently a 16.2hh middleweight shirextb...

 

[murphyboywoody]

10 stone and 5ft 10ins my horses are irish sport horses and 17.1 and 17 hands!!!!

 

[AimeeLou]

8 stone 2 on a good day, 8 stone 5 on a bad. About 5'4. My mare is a 16.3hh warmblood X tb. She's not broken at the mo.

 

[ColouredFan]

Im 5'2 weigh 7 stone 4 and my horse is a 15.2 lightweight, regularly school a 12.3

 

[jo1]

Im 5ft 4 and weigh about 12stone 3 atm. I have a 15.2 tb x section d with about 8 1/2 inches of bone. She seems to carry me ok - however only in walk and for about 15 minutes as shes only just been broken LOL

 

[TGM]

I have no idea what I weigh, but am 5'2" and a size 12 - my horse is 14.3hh and quite chunky and carries me easily. Will have to exercise my daughter's 14.1hh pony this winter and I would like to lose a little weight before I do so.

 

[_April_]

I'm 5'4, 8 and a half stone and April is 14.2

I was paranoid about being too tall for her at first but looking at pictures we look fine together.

ps. I was 8 stone this time last year and was constantly told I was too thin so I am happy with my current weight lol

 

[moneypit1]

I am 9st 9 and Fly is a 16.3hh DWB

 

[Nickijem]

OOooh well done rforsyth for owning up! I am about 13stone 7 and I am 5ft 7in. I ride a 17.1hh Trakehner who certainly doesn't seem bothered by my weight!! I used to have a 16hh french trotter who was fine too - and I rode him in a western saddle which was quite heavy. No-one ever said I looked too big for him. (mind you I was about a stone lighter then!)

 

[Weezy]

Good God - all these 5ft10 people saying they are 10stone or in Kerilli's case 10 and a half with a

and wanting to lose half a stone

I am 5ft10 and a bit and I weight 12 and a half stone (I am guessing, could be 12, but doubt it is below) and I wear a size 12 (or 10 or 14 depending on shop

) I am deffo NOT anywhere near overweight, cannot understand why people 2 stone less than me think they need to lose weight

ETS: I have a 16.2hh Oldenburg mare. I ride anything that is 15.2hh and over and I can honestly say I have NEVER had a horse struggle with my weight!

 

[welshstar]

I weigh just below 9 stone, 5 foot 5 ish and ride a 15hh anglo arabXwelsh. Personally i wouldn't feel right ridig anything smaller properly and if i had a real tb type i would probs want them a couple of inches bigger, just so i don't feel mean. I also ride a huuuuge 17.2hh (atleast!!) WB who to be honest i feel slightly small on (when i have my stirrups jumping length my feet aren't far past the flaps!!!)

 

[L00bey]

9 stone bout 5'5 ride a 14.2 warmblood x conny with suprisingly skinny legs but she manages fine. jumped 1.30 spread just today. yeah she copes fine!!

 

[jumpthemoon]

I weigh 10stone, am 5'8" and will hopefully lose half a stone in the next couple of weeks on my Weight Watchers diet

Horses are 16.2 WB and 15.1 TB (she used to be 15.3 but I've squashed her...

)

 

[rara007]

10 stone,probably should lose a few. 5 foot 4 and 13.2's, from lw B's to heavy section C's. All cope fine, but I am careful with the tiddlers, but Pip who is very full up, hackney, TB welsh mix copes fine with me , and Ginga barely notices me as a section C.

 

[slivertonics]

5ft 9 and weigh 8stone 12 to 9 stone depending on how many pies i've eaten!

horse is skinny 16hh tb he doesnt seem to have a problem carrying me anyway

 

[derbydevil]

Am 15 stone and ride a 15.1hh traditional heavyweight cob. I am aware I need to lose a couple fo stone but horsie doesn;t seem to struggle with carrying me and can still be an idiot and bounce around with me on board!!!

 

[debsflo]

8 stone 3 horse is 16.1 warmblood but feel too big for daughters lightweight 14.3

 

[Dottie]

I'm 5'4'' proberly 10 stone and my pony is 13.3hh welsh X. Have no prob's but perhaps sometimes no brakes!

 

[rcm_73]

i'm 5ft 4, 8st 3 & horses are 16.1 & 15.3 TBs.

 

[Ginn]

I vary from 7 1/2 to 8 1/2 stone (I can gain or lose a stone in a week without even realising

)

Till's is now about 16.1hh and fairly lightweight (and still a baby!) so I doubt I am too heavy for her and didn't worry too much about her carrying my weight when we brought her into ridden work at 3. That said, I wouldn't let my OH on her yet as he's 6ft and about 11 1/2 stone and I don't feel she has the balance or muscle to cope with that yet!

 

[Salcey]

I'm just over 10 stone, 5'10 and ride a 15:3 MW. I would really also like to ride my daughters 12:3 welsh C ( to help exercise in the winter) but worry I'd be too heavy.

 

[mrgoop]

5ft 11, 11 stone 4ish, 18hh MW pony
Of course he carries me fine, i am not fat, but would like to lose my tummy!!

Can't help myself where chocolate and crisps are concerned and sit at a desk all day. What are my chances do you think???

 

[ExRacers]

Weigh 9st 4lbs

Own a 17hh TB & a 15.2hh TB

 

[jesterfaerie]

I am 5ft2 9 stone to 9 and a half my pony who is 22 and 13.1 has no problem with me.
Although I am very paranoid about my weight on him.

 

[Lucy_Ally]

Horsey i ride is 17hh, and a dutch something or other, quite chunky but not in a cob way, doesnt struggle with me at all, neither did his 16.2 IDxTB field mate!
