THREE: Both dogs and diets are a pain in the ass.

We’ve reached the halfway point in the fat chicks diet challenge. Jerilyn is always the quitter — she’s never made it to this point in year’s past. I expected the same this time around. But no! She’s still watching what she eats and she’s still losing.
