No idea

I haven’t stepped on scales in about a week. Not because I didn’t want to, or because I’m in denial or anything, but because since I got the little fur-ball I’ve been too tired and too busy to get on scales.

That said last time I did weigh myself, my numbers (though still not at my goal), were actually lower than expected – probably mostly down to the fact that with fuzz-ball around, I’m running around after him, constantly up and down, going walkies, and I don’t have time for random chocolate snacks. The upshot being, I’m eating better, healthier, less chocolate and I’m moving around more

That was the point of getting a fur-ball into the family – not only point, but yeah. The little fur-ball is slowly settling into the life into his household, so soon I should be able to get into more of a routine, one that also allows me to get on scales on regular basis and monitor my progress.

Oh, just to add to the fun of things – the other day I was training with the dog, as the books tell you you should, to make him an obedient well behaved pet. Well, because we were playing tug with a rope, I used that as an opportunity to do some squats. The motion allowed for the rope to be relocating from one position to the other, keeping the dog entertained, and me working on some butt muscles.

Win-win the way I see it.

Off now, will check in again soon.

Uhmmmm – here boy, here boy

Uhmm, I got a dog! Like what the hell!

Okay okay in all seriousness, this wasn’t the last ditch attempt of finding a solution to my laziness and attempts at losing weight. Or was it? I wanted a dog for a long while, and finally got to a point in life where it wasn’t a complete impossibility.

It wasn’t a decision made on a whim, but it was definitely a decision that took into consideration my physical health, knowing that owning a dog came with the requirement for regular daily walks. Also it was for companionship, having someone or something else around the house, will hopefully help with my mental health.

In a meantime, whilst the puppy gets trained up and builds up strength to do long walks, he gets taken out for short walks, I have signed up to Hello Fresh, and my weight – okay, whilst I haven’t yet achieved my January goal, my weight is slowly shifting downwards. Thing is, over the last several days I have been so busy sorting out all the puppy related stuff I’ve been too busy to eat properly. My meals have gone completely out of whack, time-schedule wise, and I found myself having big dinners again, only because I haven’t had the time to cook something earlier. Most of the doggie related admin should be done now, so come next week, I should be able to get back to my usual food schedule.

Report will follow.
