Opinions Please

OK so i go for my appointments mid April before i can get the go ahead. if anyone has been following me knows about my struggle to decide what to do for my horse show year. my question now. i bought some really expensive clothes for English riding in the fall for this show season and will be way to big for me next show season...should i go ahead and sell them so i don't loose on them or keep them? but if i don't get cleared for surgery i would need all those things:( what are the chances you get turned down? because that is my biggest fear   and do you often loose inches on your calves Ive tried everything

Thanks Chris

Hi Chris,

I think there's a word or 2 missing in a sentence and not quite sure exactly what you are asking about the clothes, maybe repost and explain a bit more.

You do lose from EVERYWHERE....lol....in 6 months, I have lost 7inches on my calves and shoe size went from 11 wide to a 10 regular.

Obviously you can not predict if you will be approved or not so that's a toss up that you will unfortunately have to have the patience and wait it out til April.

haha thanks i think my fingers got behind my mind :P all fixed :)

Hi there, you said.." if I bought some ...." Can you wait to buy them?

If you meet the BMI requirements I don't see a great chance of being turned down.

im sorry i knew what i wanted to say my fingers didnt follow fixed the wording now

i think as long as your BMI is over a certain amount the approval is a breeze I have not heard of ANYONE being denied under the new OHIP system as long as they meet the required BMI 

oh, o.k. that makes more sense. I don't know when you would  have surgery.
I can tell you though in a month you won't fit into your clothes....well, I guess that depends on how big you are , but riding clothes are normally supposed to be tight right?

yes supposed to be and i got a brand made for plus size riders from the UK and is pricey and i dont want to loose money on it because it still has tags and has never seen the ring

What month is the show going to be?
Could you sell them and wear something else? As you said they won't fit you next year.
Would it be better to get more money for them brand new versus used once?

Have you thought of having surgery after the show?

ive accually decided to take this show season off and focus on me. im leasing out my mare to a little girl that works under my coach/trainer so i feel really good about it. So i wouldnt need the clothes at all this year
