My stomach is hurting. I need to not eat sunflower seeds with Diet Dr. Peppers. It always makes my stomach hurt. Other than that I am OK.
I did 4 circuits of my Jillian Michaels DVD today which was great. It helps to know I can do some exercises.
We were talking tonight about getting another dog in a month or two. I still feel sad about Shadow but I am not in terrible pain every day now. I know another dog won't ever replace Shadow but we like having a dog around the house. We might get a young dog instead of a puppy. It might mean we wouldn't have to housebreak a dog but an older dog might have other bad habits. We thought it might be harder for an older dog to get adopted too so we would more likely be saving a dog's life if we got an older dog. We want a shepherd mix or a lab mix or a collie mix or a setter mix or a cocker spaniel. Well the truth is we will take any kind of dog that we fall in love with.
I am still thinking about going to my daughter's house in Nov. to see her and my grandsons. I never get to see them enough. They live in Bremerton WA. I also have to be sure I won't still be on crutches.
Today was my weigh in day and although I was tempted to skip it because of my Bloomin Onion escapade I decided to weigh in. I was 191.2 so I am almost in the 180's now. I lost 2.2 lb. which was great considering I have not been exercising much and I have been eating 30 carbs a day. I may cut my carbs though to be sure I get under 190 this week. I can't believe I am almost in the 180's - another great milestone! I need to buy some new jeans. I think I can fit into 16's now.

Congrats on the weigh-in!! A new dog does help a bit but like you said, it'll never replace the one you had before. If we didn't have our other little dog I'd be so lost, even a year later. The 180s are calling you & I think you'll be there in no time! Keep it up Andrea!! = )

Congrats on the weigh in Andrea. I am really hoping that I have broken my stall this week. I have been stuck at 194 since August 14th, and it's driving me crazy! And I think getting anothter dog is a marvelous idea. There is no way to replace Shadow, but with a loving heart like yours, a new dog will get a great home, and you will get some great love back!

Congrats on the weight loss, you are doing well despite your sore foot. And I am sure you will find the right dog for you when the time is right. You have a big heart and any dog would be happy to be your companion.

Fantastic on the weight loss, even after your little lapses. Though I love your profile pic' with the giraffe, we really need a new one! __________ It's so hard getting another animal after a beloved friend passes away; as I said before, we ended up with Ramble because I couldn't face getting another cat after we lost Nuisance. I like your idea of young dog: those (gnawing, peeing, popping) puppy days are hard work. There's a big push in NZ for people to take rescue greyhounds, the ones that will be culled after their brief racing days are over. Apparently they make the perfect pet: couch potatoes, they are gentle, amenable and affectionate, and if the one next door is typical, they don't bark!
