Happy Wednesday, My Best Buddies!

Tears of Joy ! Bodhi, my beloved cat, competed his ultrasound and they found NOTHING unusual...so, no cancer, no masses, no blockages, etc. He does have pancreatitis and will continue his medications and follow-up with our regular vet for a recovery plan.

And, the Idiot Boxes were down this morning - five pounds dropped in two weeks. I did NOT stress eat the last few days - in fact, I lost my appetite with worry.

Short Range Goals:

* Back in the "Blue" on Idiot Boxes while retaining muscle - June?
* Schedule a bodyfat % reading with trainer for May?
* Drink at least 12 - 16 cups of fresh water daily - especially on gym days
* Continue HIIT mixed in with weight lifting four to five days a week
* Keep up the training notebook to achieve progressive overload

Long Range Goals: 2017
*Bodyfat at 20% (Current 24.5%) by year end 2017
*Maintain Idiot Boxes around 152-158lbs staying under goal weight
*Increased strength, endurance and flexibility during workouts

Good news for you and Bodhi! My cat has had pancreatitis in the past, as well. They seem to recover fairly quickly. The cat specialist told me (at the time) that while they have clues as to what causes (and prevents) it in dogs, they don't have any idea with cats. Great news on the weight loss front, though I'm sure you didn't need the stress!

Is he getting his appetite back? 
15 Mar 17 by member: erikahollister
@ erikahollister - yes, he ate some boiled chicken, and some actual cat food BUT the best is that he was drinking water today.

@kpwcalories - Bodhi is very smart and when he wears his therapy pet vest, his demeanor seems to change and he accepts we are working. He started with me before he was even one year old so he is very used to it. He is over 8 years old now,
