The Great Great Dane Weight Loss Challenge Day 1

 Ok, I know this sounds weird, but this is a weight loss challenge for me! I have still struggled. With my birthday, then anniversary, then Halloween and finally my scrapbook retreat I was back up to 209.8 Monday morning! I also lost my Bella dog a couple of weeks ago as well. 😔

Although we do miss our Bella, we know she had a good life and spent 10 wonderful years with us and passed at age 12. But we have something exciting to look forward to after a long challenging year. I just got the ok from my husband for us to adopt a great dane puppy in early spring!!! So I am wicked excited!

They are huge dogs so I want to be healthier so I can care for my new puppy and get out and give it proper excercise! I have wanted a great day for almost 50 years! I have met a few when I was a kid and absolutely love the breed! 

But they are big, so the costs are higher to own one and having a bigger space is a plus, even though they do well in an apartment, a large house is more ideal. I am finally at a place in my life I can adopt one! I started my challenge on Monday. I am down to 207 this morning! Woohoo!

I wanted to get as close to 172 pounds as I can by time we pick up our new pup, which should be March or later depending on when our future puppy is born and ready to be picked up! Here is to a great incentive to maybe help me finally move forward and get this weight off!
