SATURDAY NIGHT HIGH

No, I haven't blogged in a while.  And yes, I still have my bellyfat!  I am actually doing pretty good with my work outs and my eating habits are moderate depending on the day.  I find if I keep myself busy, I am less likely to snack.  I would like to thank by good boy Spotty for accompanying me on my two mile jogs, which is at least toning my legs up.  If it wasn't for him, I wouldn't be making it out the door almost every evening to run.  See those eyes, that is the look I get until I take him out.  At first he was a struggle to run with and dreaded it as much as I did.  He would hang his head and act like it was the worst thing in the world.  Don't take that wrong, he loves to go running, but on his own terms.  He would much rather run out in the desert or go to the dog park and socialize.  But, after a few weeks he has accepted that running circles around the neighborhood isn't such a bad thing and he looks forward to it.  I love to watch him pick up his pace and hold his head up high when we are passing neighbors and neighbor's yards where their dogs are barking and watching as we jog past.  It is as if he is thinking, "look at me."  Our jogging together has actually brought us closer.  I adopted him to replace my faithful lab Kipper that passed a year ago.  Kipper was my shadow and snuggle partner.  Spot ended up being attached to Bobby and refused to snuggle with me for whatever reason.  But now that we are jogging partners he wants to be closer to me and doesn't run off the bed when I lay next to him.  He will never replace my Kipper, but he is another sweet boy that is capturing my heart.

  1. This is cute! Its amazing what our pets do for us mentally! Mine drive me crazy, but I love the little rascals. Does Mason go on your jogs with you? Makayla has joined me on my "no sweets" quest, because she has inherited the same addiction! She is doing good and has also lost 8 lbs, making herself have an even more rocking body!..lol. What I wouldn't give to have her heighth (5'8) and her shape!!
