Lost 54 pounds and only one dress size?!

I also cannot bear the idea of drinking salt water. I got a “refill” bottle of the pink himalayan salt chunks that one is supposed to put in a fancy salt grinder. It makes the salt easier to take if they are in chunks. Just swallow like little pills. Not too much at one time, though.

They’re not scratchy when you swallow them?

He certainly looks collie to me.
I hope you got the sensible side of at least one of the breeds. They can both be dizzy and dippy, so if you got that side of the collie and the springer, heaven help you!
Bet he takes some exercise and entertaining. Both breeds get bored easily.
He’s beautiful though :smiley:

Nope, I don’t think so. I mean, they are gone soon enough!

I took too much one day, though, and really regretted it. My stomach wasn’t having it at all. So just a few, like, 10 or 15 little salt pieces.

He got no sensible side lol, super smart tho, really hyper. I run him down our trail a few miles a day or he’s super sad!

#106

Oh yes, super, super smart.
Spaniels and collies both make good pets, but people tend to forget that, as working dogs, they were bred for stamina and intelligence.
Got to use up the energy but also give them something to think about.
That’s why people do agility, obedience, search and even ‘dancing’ with them. A bored dog can be destructive, these activities help stop this. A really long walk, especially if they can run off lead, also works wonders.
I’m so glad I don’t have a dog. I love them, just know that, at the moment, I’m not up to looking after one properly - I just wouldn’t take it out enough. The cats are more than enough work :wink:

I still think you women need to rebel against jean designers, because women’s “pockets” are a crime, obviously a conspiracy between clothes designers and purse makers.

I don’t do jeans much as my skin always breaks out from them! But I do prefer men’s track pants. Not as noticeable that they are men’s but the pockets are bigger and I do like that! Also hate that a lot of women’s sweats don’t typically have pockets. I’m not a purse carrier but I still would like pockets for my phone etc.

I am the landscaper for my mobilehome park. I get holes in my t-shirts on a regular basis. Every season - three new Target t-shirts. Only three. If I get outrageously lucky with the money - two American Eagle Jeans.

I agree 1000%. I’ve been rebelling against the gender discrimination of pants design for years. I also wear mostly men’s pants or I search for women’s that have actual pockets. There are some to be found occasionally.

His runs are off leash! He also has chews and puzzle toys. We play catch all day. He has digging boxes and a kiddie pool loads of toys and balls and chews! We also have a fenced in back yard so he can go in and out all day!

Sounds like a wonderful life for a dog like him.
Just wish every high energy dog had people like you to look after them!

I hear you. I mix it with about 1/3 glass of hot water until it dissolves. Then I add cool water. I find drinking it warm is much easier than drinking it cold.

(Karim Wassef) #115

Add it to hot raw cacao to dissolve and then serve over ice.

Salt + cacao goes well together and cold dulls the tastebuds.

I drank that everyday with the Maple Syrup, lemon juice diet.
