Good Morning. Mother Knows Best

Anybody old enough to remember the real TV show Father Knows Best?  lol   I always though my dad looked like Robert Young. Anyway, Son#1 and DIL are back in-country and will pick up their beast puggle today. I think I've gotten a few pounds off of him by changing his food to canned Pedigree vice Iam's Weight Management ...   So do I tell them about the carbs and corn meal in the Iam's and let the poor thing regain his lost weight? Or, not be a know-it-all and let it go?  {sigh}  I can't do it. I have to tell him because Mother Knows Best.  lol

If you're getting yourself back on the straight and narrow today, good luck. If you're already doing what you're supposed to do and plodding on, keep going. If you're trying to decide what to try next, let us know what you decide. Best to all for a good workweek and successful approach to your health and well being.

'Morning Gina.  Yes - I remember that show...

You need to tell them - don't let all your hard work get undone by the poor thing. 

I need a  new alarm clock - mine's psycho - or haunted - only works when it wants too.  Went off Sunday at 5:30am for no reason.  Last night I made sure it was set, and it didn't go off...

Good morning!

I think for sake of the puggle, you need to say something. I also would send them home with some pedigree. Mother does know best.

Trying to get back on track since last week. So glad I am getting off the carbs. I cant believe the difference in how I feel. Just hope I dont get tempted by the evil carb monster any time soon.

Going to be a nice day here today, so hopefully Buddy Love and I will be hitting the pavement hard today!

Happy Monday!

Yeah, tell them.  But in the end, they will do whatever.  I have a very fat jack russell.  I can feed him diet everything and then DH undoes what I have done.  I have given up but remind DH that his beloved dog is going to die sooner because of his weight. 

My drive today is cancelled due to rain.  boohoo.  Oh well, I will drive here when it stops.  After a beautiful weekend when I was volunteering and couldn't drive, today it is my turn and it is raining.  Oh well, muscle pump this evening and it will be easier to stay on track with eating at home instead of out.  I know they were serving wraps and brownies and chips and I may have not made good choices.

I agree with the ladies. You've got to tell them. Hopefully they'll appreciate the news.

I'm going to the gym this morning to continue my healthy lifestyle. Looking forward to moving my body. Oh, and I have a phone interview this afternoon.

Have a great day!!!

Thanks. I'm a little nervous as the job isn't completely clear to me. I'll manage though.

Just explain to them that Iam's has corn in it and that corn isn't good for dogs...it's just a filler to keep the cost more reasonable. IF they have a Costco membership, and they can use dry food...the Kirkland brand is the same ingredients as the best NON-grain formulas out there.

Once you tell them, let it go! You can lead a horse to water....

I totally enjoyed that show, Father Knows Best But having seen some reruns, she actually knows best but lets him get the credit.
