I know more than a few people who can use this today. Thanks to [livejournal.com profile] shanmonster, I give you Fifty Photos of Basset Hounds Running. You're welcome.

[livejournal.com profile] mckitterick is going great guns with the body-sculpting (see what I did there? guns!) and I'm feeling like a weak slob in comparison. So I'm cleaning up my eating act, big time. Protein and vegetables. Protein and vegetables. No fruit until the summer strawberries arrive. No wine except on Fridays and Saturdays, and no hard liquor whatsoever. Cranking up the high intensity workouts and resuming the heavy lifting (which, for me, means lifting my body off the floor). Thyroid issues, are you listening? Let's see what you do when I play hardball.

Heads-up, fellow seamsters: for the first time that I can remember, Hancock Fabrics is running a sale on Burda Patterns. April 7 through 10, Burda patterns are $2.49 each. I'm not sure if there's a purchase limit, and the Hancock sales flyer isn't loading on their website. But! Burda on sale. Pretty cool.

Nothing is going to beat fifty photos of Basset Hounds running, so I'm just gonna close with a repeat of that. Enjoy.

[livejournal.com profile] elaine4queen should just about fall down dead from the dog photos. She likee the dog things.

I'm with you on the other stuff. I've been stealthily quiet about it since it has only been a week but I have been swimming or walking every day and did a week of two liquid meals (using almased (http://www.almased.com/) as the liquid meal) and one high protein/high good veggie meal a day, in order to re-break the carb addiction AGAIN. I've been in solid dark purple ketosis (per sticks) all week but am not weighing until next saturday. Enough is enough already, srsly. How much time can i let go bye? is what I finally woke up to. That I was just *procrastinating* again and again. Not even so much out of not wanting to do it as just out of procrastination habit! Jeeze.

Congratulations on taking steps to break bad habits and develop good ones! Yay!

[livejournal.com profile] mckitterick is a great influence. He flexed for me the other day and I could see the muscles between his shoulder blades stand out. For godssake. A girl's gotta look her best for a partner that dedicated (and hot), ya know?

Those are some of the ugliest/funniest/cutest pictures I have EVER SEEN.

I think, today, they might just edge out Running Wiener Dogs.

But I might feel different tomorrow.

The wieners are definitely less ugly/horrifying...

Baby wiener dogs in slo-mo are cuter than Bassets in slo-mo, too.

Oh, no they did NOT put buns on the Wiener Dogs!

[identity profile] clevermanka.livejournal.com 2011-03-17 06:43 pm (UTC)(link)
And then they had them run in them.

Bwaahahahah

The basset hounds or the Burda sale? =D

[identity profile] kalimeg.livejournal.com 2011-03-18 12:21 am (UTC)(link)
When I lived in Germany Burda was my favorite. They always fit.

I *love* the hounds! :)
