Double good news day.

First, my little dog has bounced back a bit, so it seems like we will be spared making the hard choice for now.

Secondly, I went to the dietitian and I have lost more weight. I'm down to 308 lbs now, from a high of 338 lbs not too long ago.

so yay on both fronts.

Whew, that's a big relief! Hope your precious furbaby has many more happy years with her increasingly svelt-er Mom. I seem to be dropping a few pounds every six months when I get on the scale at the Dr's myself. It's so slow that at 67 years old I might not ever break 200 (Moo!) but at least the numbers are going in the right direction.

Double happy good news ...

Happy on both 'fronts'. :)

For moving towards a healthier weight, may I recommend this site (well, the whole site), but start here (https://www.drmcdougall.com/health/education/free-mcdougall-...), and please read through to the recipes and watch the videos (before blowing off me and Dr McDougall).

You will find Dr McDougall in substantial agreement with:

Dr Neal Barnard (PCRM.org, and especially https://www.pcrm.org/health-topics/diabetes [1],

T Colin Campbell (The China Study, https://nutritionstudies.org/) [1],

the site https://www.forksoverknives.com/ (watch https://www.forksoverknives.com/the-film/#gs.vhzdgf),

Dr Caldwell Esselstyn (http://www.dresselstyn.com/site/),

Dr Michael Greger (NutritionFacts.org) [1], and

Dr Kim Williams (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kim_A._Williams) [1]).

[1] - I have been to lecture(s) by them.

These doctors and sites offer (a lot) of their information and guidance for free. Yes, you can buy their books (or go to a library), or go to their seminars and programs and such.

There is nothing special that you 'must' buy, no special/magic/required/'weird' foods, nothing you can't find at a general grocery story. Just avoid all animal 'foods' and added oils and fats, eat what they recommend, and move towards health.

Good health and good luck!
