Progress Report
This morning my good old friendly scale told me I was down to 246 pounds. Then I put on my good old friendly swim suit:
(Me about a month and 20 pounds ago)
which I do every Sunday to take my measurements. I was pleased to find I'd lost an inch and a half each off my waist and hips. That makes me a not especially svelte, yet symmetrical, 51-44.5-51.
After this upbeat start, the day went somewhat downhill. Just one example--Mike was roughhousing with Climber, which he has been repeatedly told NOT to do, because he can't calm her down if she gets too excited. Sure enough, she nipped his ear; just a scratch, but you know how extremities bleed. Hopefully this will make him THINK next time he is tempted to start up a wrestling match.
Although I'm pretty sure Climber was just being a typical playful cattle dog, I had to wonder if this wasn't one of those cases of dog/owner telepathy. Because I had been wanting to bite Michael all afternoon....
