Thanks Kavsix for your comment on my previous post. Always good to meet a fan. Indeed, Tim Gunn and I are working on a collaborative effort to develop a line of fashionable yet slimming dog garments under the design name 'Ham & Bone'. I was inspired by the sassy yet somewhat overweight dogs I encountered at my great-grandma's house in Puerto Rico (hello rice and black bean overload). Can I really blame them though? When confronted food, I too have my restraint problems. Whey my great aunt sneakily put a plate of deliciously sneaky ham under my nose, did I refuse? No, I am sad to say I did not. That is why, I gained....4 pounds on my Puerto Rican Holiday, which may not sound like a lot, but it is approx 25% of my current body weight. Lucky for me as it is winter I can hide my slight tummy under adorable sweaters, however spring is just around the corner and before too long my mom will be squeezing me into tiny dresses. Also, I am considering starting to get back on the dating scene this year as part of my new year's resolution, so you know, gotta look super awesome for that.
This is one of the dog's at my great-grandma's place, she is a chihuahua but looks to be the size of a small doberman due to the aforementioned rice and beans...(face hidden for anonymity purposes) |
