Six weeks in, I’m still drinking my water, my tracking went out the window by Week 3 but I am trying and… it’s paid off. Down another 1 1/2 ibs this week. Bringing my total weight loss to 10 1/2 ibs. I am delighted
My leader, Assumpta says that’s a dress size but to me a dress size would be a stone but I’m not really arguing!

I bought these harem pants or as Brian says my “MC Hammer / Simon Cowell” trousers well before I started WW and they were sooooo tight. I hadn’t gone near them since I started my weight loss until last Friday and they were so loose I could fit a small person in with me!
I am so delighted with my progress & kinda shocked I haven’t had a week where I go up or stay the same but I fly out to Spain on Saturday and I’m afraid as I said last week WW will influence my decisions on holiday but anything goes as I promise to get to a class asap once I’m back.
I’m also going to miss our little fur baby while on holiday but Muffin is going on her holidays to her Grannies with a big bag of treats & she had her hair cut again with Orlagh from Smoochable Pooches so I’ll leave you with a sweet little photo!

See you mid August for the next weigh in but keep going guys and I love getting all the emails, tweets & comments so keep them coming!

Before
While attending the Greystones, St. Patrick’s Day parade this year with Brian & Muffin we were given a little lollipop treat for Muffin with a business card attached for Smoochable Pooches. I thought it was a really clever idea and I kept the card on my desk in work till it was time for Muffin’s next groom.
From my very first call with Orlagh I felt at ease, as she breeds Bichon Frise and sounded absolutely lovely on the phone I was actually looking forward to dropping Muffin off, even though her previous grooming session elsewhere had been more like a butchering!!!
I dropped Muffin over to Redford Park, Greystones at 10am and arranged a 2pm approx collection…
I was right, from the moment we arrived & I met Orlagh and family (both hubby & doggies) I felt happy leaving my little fur baby there. We discussed what I wanted & more importantly what I didn’t & when I showed a photo of the last groom & I could see she was horrified.
Orlagh’s set up is fantastic, a separate side entrance to her “doggy parlour” with fully functioning table & bath etc.
I stayed & chatted while Muffin settled in & then I went off shopping with Mummy K (haul to follow!).
I arrived back in Greystones just after 2pm, Muffin was busy in the house playing with all the puppies but she was happy to see me when she was called
The prettiest little Bichon was waiting for me..

After
Look how adorable she is with her bow!

So if your looking for a fantastic groomer for Bichon Frise or any breed please give Orlagh a call on 087 2606717 and tell her Lee & Muffin sent you
