Having been on every diet plan out there, Carolyn Macdonald shares how a change in mindset kickstarted her weight loss and fitness journey. After 40 years of being unhappy with her weight and suffering from a huge loss in confidence both on her horse Bobby and in her personal life Carolyn realised she had to make a change. Fast forward and she has lost an incredible 4.5 stone. In this episode she chats to Liz about her biggest achievement to date and the impact it has had on every area of her life. Having coached Carolyn before her weight loss journey Liz has seen first-hand the benefits to Carolyn’s riding and confidence levels with her horse Bobby. Carolyn shares some brilliant tips from her own journey whilst at the same time acknowledging that everyone’s journey will be different. Importantly it has got to be the right time for the individual, and whilst in an equestrian setting it is right to talk about someone’s fitness, it is never appropriate to tell someone else that they are overweight.   You can find out more information on the plan that Carolyn used here or sign up to Equiteam to access both our exclusive member work outs and a supportive community ready to cheer you on https://bit.ly/3vUrGvm
