Ed has got a little porky this Spring and suddenly had a cresty neck. Started his 'diet' two weeks ago....
I weigh-taped him on Sunday and he was 468kgs, yesterday he was between 451 and 458kgs - a nice reduction in the space of 5 days
I'm having to borrow a saddle that fits better than my own, and then we're going to have ours refitted at end July (to see if we need to increase the tree size etc).
I'm new to all of this weight management 'stuff' and just wondered how much weight a horse could sensibly lose in the space of a month. I think last Summer he was about 430kgs, so looking to lose another 25kgs or so. Any experiences? Is this realistic in the space of a few weeks.
