For me, it had to do with how likely I was to be
trodden on tacking up for the ride. Once I started
riding my husband's less hyper-active horse, ride
nerves diminished greatly and I was able to eat
much better.

One thing I found that didn't work - dried cranberries.
Seemed like a good idea in principle until I realised
I had to sort of lick the handful from my hand to avoid
dropping most of them... and then I looked at the state
of my filthy hand and decided this was probably a health
risk.

Food for me was "slithery stuff" and in small, bite sized
quantities. Anything that I needed to chew caused a gag
reflex. So sliced meats, sliced cheese, Ensure, etc.
