Part of this whole weight loss is being driven by a program I started at the Bangor Y. They call it "The Biggest Mover" which really is a spin off of "The Biggest Loser". We have teams. We have coaches and we meet twice a week for training sessions. It is pretty awesome. I shall try and keep the updates coming as to my success. So far I have lost about 7 lbs so that rocks!

Back to Work!
It's been a rough few days with putting Jack to sleep, I am still sad but life must go on. It is amazing after going to the gym everyday foe 3 weeks, that sitting around for 2 days takes away all my energy and motivation! Well fuck that! I gotta get me back on the treadmill and elliptical. I have a huge goal to meet.

Sadness
Jack is the hound on the right, snuggling with Autumn on a car ride from NH to Bangor.
Ah so yes I have failed again on the whole, posting everyday thing. Blah. A girl only has so much time. Anyway I really came to post today because me & my fiance had to put one of our dogs to sleep yesterday. Talk about a heart breaker, it's sad enough that we were putting dog to sleep but watching my fiance ball his eyes out is rough. It turns out there was nothing we could do for Jack in the end anyway. He had either 1 of 2 things wrong with him: 1. He had arthritis in his spine which was causing nerve damage which in the end was causing his inability to walk right or control his bowls, 2. The liquid around his spine was deteriorating causing the same results as 1. They said it is something that happens to hound dogs & shepards and they really have no idea what causes it. Anyway he lived a happy, not super long, 8 years, life. He went out with his head being held by both of us & we buried him with his blanket & bowl, his two favorite things. Sadness indeed but all part of the circle of life.
