Could I be a horse jockey?
I have always loved horse since I was really little and I always had a need for speed too. I have ridden horses since I was 7 but I really got into riding 2 years ago and had leased a off the track thoroughbred. I was a jumper and jumped up to three feet high but I also go to gallop my horse in a open field with short stirrups. But I took a break from riding and haven't ridden since October of 2010 due to anorexia that I am still suffering with but I hope that I am getting better. I am still very sick but I really hope to get better. I suffer from dizziness, low heart rate, palpations, I am always cold, my hair is falling out, and my eyesight is blurry. I really love horses and hope that if I get better and race because I have always wanted to do that! What are the qualifications to be a jockey? I am 5'8 which is quite tall to be honest, and 96 pounds. Is there a hight limit? I know I am probably good on the weight but I honestly don't know what the weights are. Could I still be a jockey if I get better or would it be a triggering sport because of my anorexia? Also would it be safe for me to go back to riding(jumping for now)now? Thank you!
@Lurch I can't eat more than i am because I am afraid that I will gain loads of weight. I eat about 600 calories now but I was eating less than 100 for months. My nutritionist did say to drink ensure but I refuse to. They honestly want me in a hospital with a feeding tube :/
@Lurch I usually take pictures of myself just to see if I have gained weight because I am terrified of that, it is very common for us anorexics to do that not because we like ourself but to see that we haven't changed overnight. Also are you from Russia? I am not but I quite look like it, and have a partial accent too.
Also I do know how to take care of horses etc..I did lease one for a while so I did have to take care of him like feed him, give him a bath, groom, tack and everything.

EUR losing strength faster than GBP by alex 24 May 2012 at 12:42am
As expected, the informal EU leaders summit over dinner yesterday evening did little to ease market uncertainty about the euro crisis. Indeed, the latest comments from French and German officials suggest it will be no small task to paper over major policy divisions. The European Central Bank’s President Mario Draghi also stated that issuing jointly backed European debt would [...] Euro at risk for major drop by alex 23 May 2012 at 1:35am
The Consumer price inflation(CPI) in the UK fell to 3.0% in April, down from 3.5% in the previous month. Although this was only marginally faster than the markets had anticipated (consensus 3.1%), this will come as relief to the BOE following last month?s rise in inflation. It is also of symbolic importance that Sir Mervyn King [...] CONSUMER PRICE INDEX by alex 22 May 2012 at 1:58am
The Consumer Price Index is a measure of price movements by the comparison between the retail prices of a representative shopping basket of goods and services.

At the G8 summit this weekend, Greece’s political and economic upheaval, together with the growing instability in Spain and Italy, were high on the agenda as leaders sought to calm the situation.

The potential ?Grexit? is killing the markets as they run for safety in the last day of the week. Uncertainty is all over, and regardless of the new elections being held in June 17, investors still don?t want to risk it.
Not only Greece is in trouble. 16 Spanish banks have been downgraded by Moody?s last [...] Lower inflation expectations not good for GBP by alex 17 May 2012 at 12:53am
The UK inflation report released yesterday showed that the MPC now expect two-year inflation to be lower despite raising the near term projection.
