About
This is a community for horsemen and women who want the support of a friendly, positive community to reach their healty fitness goals. Whether you want to lose 5 pounds or 50, eat more veggies or fewer Cheetos, or just do something good for your body, we support you!

Community rules:
- This is a community for people who want to be HEALTHY. Starving yourself, throwing up, and other ways of destroying yourself are NOT healthy. Please do not bring them here.
- This is a community for people who want POSITIVE SUPPORT. Be kind to one another.
- Cross posting is obnoxious. Use restraint.
- Community promotions should be kept small, relevant, and also to a minimum.
- Long posts and photos should be placed behind an lj-cut.
- We love progress reports, recipes, handy exercises, and other healthy, positive tips!

Questions, comments and suggestions are always welcome. Contact your friendly local mod, [info]dressagediosa.
