So Jimmy cried at bedtime again last night. Did not last as long as the night before but I feel really bad. He asked if he could have a picture of Elwood. I told him he could pick one out. We had a mastiff that died 2 yrs ago and Jimmy was 4 and he never got upset once. I think he may have been too young and now that he's a little older he may not understand about the whole life and death thing. Hope I can maybe find a book that I can read to him to help him understand. I'm sure it will pass with time but I feel so bad. He went to camp this morning so hopefully he will be ok.
Hoping to walk after work and also do my 5k plan since I've only done once this week (Monday). So that means tonight and Saturday morning I have to do my 5k plus weights. Jim finishes up Saturday morning so while he's sleeping Jimmy and I will head to the gym.
Last night Jimmy and I did level 1 of my Powerscult Biggest Loser DVD. He had the smaller hand weights and I had my 8#. It was fun, we did the whole thing together even the warm up and cool down.
Thank goodness it's Friday. So I'm finally back down to 142.2 since last week when I was up at 144 from binge eating and having a free for all eating weekend during the 4th. My goal is to get back to 140 by next weekend before we head to Norwalk. I'm gonna do my 3 days of 5k plan and also try to get in 3-4 days of walking on top of that along with my Biggest Loser DVD (weights). I can do it, I know I can!
Hope everyone has a great weekend and will catch up with everyone here shortly.
Thanks for your support and also being such great ds friends!

I am sorry to hear that he is taking it hard, but kids totally bond with their pets and as you said, he is a bit older and probably had a closer bond with him. Give him a big hug from me!
Great job on the DVD! It sounds like it was a lot of fun! Have fun walking after work- you will do great!! And by the way, I am so proud of you for getting your eating back under control and rocking it and losing 2 pounds! WOOHOO for that!! =)
Keep the momentum up and believe believe believe! You can do this!!! Love you!

It's so tough when a pet dies for little kids b/c they just don't understand sometimes when their pal is gone, I'm sure it helps you are there for helping him through it. Great job with your exercise and 5K plan, I know you can do it too! Hope you have a great weekend too!

So sorry to hear your sad news :0(. Poor Jimmy and you and your hubby, its such a trying time when you lose someone close. Sorry have'nt been on for such a long time, must try and keep in touch more often. The DVD sounds like fun, wish my husband would do one with me!! Keep up you good work, your be back down to your normal weight before you know it. Take care of you and yours. Lots of love Sarahxxxx

I think you are right, Jimmy is older and had a closer bond with the dog, knows he isn't coming back. I will message you a few titles of books for young kids about death and pets, maybe your library will have them or the local bookstore. I think just talking about it helps a lot. He is lucky to have such a caring Mom. Speaking of you, good job bouncing back and losing two pounds! I know you can accomplish whatever you set your mind to. You are a strong woman!! Have a great weekend!

You can do it. You are so lucky Jim will exercise with you. My hubby feels he's a roofer and he works hard enough. Good luck this week..I"M WITH YOU

I love that you and Jimmy did the excercise DVD together...too cute!! I am sorry that he is having such a tough time about the pup, but I do think you hit the nail on the head when you talked about his age and him understanding it more. I hope you had a great weekend!!
