Happy Week, my Fabulous Followers,

Some of you know me well enough to remember I have a beautiful Bengal cat named Bodhi. He is a Registered Therapy Pet and spent years coming to my office with me.

Last year he had a bout of pancreatitis, and he is now going through it again. For cats, it is not about diet - apparently they get flare-ups. The problem is he will not eat or drink - which can be dangerous for cats after a few days.

He went to ER Vet Sunday, and will go to our usual cat clinic today. He is about 9 years old - not that old for a cat!

Can you all send him "positive vibes"? He is very special to me and I am terrified to lose him.

Short Range Goals:

* Movement down on the Idiot Boxes while retaining muscle by year end 2018
* Bodyfat % reading with trainer in late MAY, 2018
* Drink at least 12-14 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: 2018/2019
*Bodyfat at 26% or less (Current 29.8%) by end 2018/early 2019
*Longer range body fat goal is 22% - which at my age is great!
*Maintain 160lbs staying under goal weight by end 2018/early 2019
