Time to take back my life
I have owned, trained, shown, and loved horses my entire life. Over the last 11 years I have been able to participate much less than I would like, due to medical issues, and putting on about 70 lbs. Although my user name implies that I have Appaloosas, I actually have transitioned to mainly Quarter Horses, but the name stuck :)
I have taught my daughter to train and show, and she even went to the AQHA World Championship Show in 2011. Sadly, her horse, who was also her best friend, ...

Although my user name implies that I have Appaloosas, I actually have transitioned to mainly Quarter Horses, but the name stuck :)
I have taught my daughter to train and show, and she even went to the AQHA World Championship Show in 2011. Sadly, her horse, who was also her best friend, broke his leg in February 2012, and had to be put down. She is still struggling to move on without him. She turned 18 last month, has moved out, and will begin college this fall.
My passion is my horses. I can't train or show them at their best, if I'm not at my best. The tingling, numbness, and pain that I have in my arms and legs isn't going to go away, but all of this extra weight is! I haven't been in the show ring for about 5 years now, but that is going to change. My long term goal is to qualify and show my 4 year old AQHA stallion at the World Championship Show.
