Please allow me to introduce myself

Bugs and Boops wishing I would stop typing and start administering treats

Greetings, friends.  Allow me to introduce myself - I'm boopsandbugs.  

I'm a middle-aged gal who has all the maturity of a 12-year-old.  I've been thicc most of my life, but after a year of making smart choices I find myself at my smallest in all my adult life.  I'm kind of evangelical about getting healthy in mind and body.  I can't speak to my mind but I can tell you how I've lost 33% of my body weight without suffering, sacrifice or surgery.

So why Boopsandbugs? I wanted a fun username for a popular weight loss forum, I couldn't come up with anything sassy on the spot, so I looked around for inspiration and there were my two dogs.  

Boops is the black one. She's spaniel-adjacent.  Not really sure what spaniel and what else she's mixed with.  She has a tail that wags a lot. She is the most well-behaved dog in the universe.  She is a Good Girl.

Bugs is the blonde one, and as they say blondes have more fun.  Bugs is 100% cocker spaniel and has just about no tail (did you know it's illegal to dock tails in Europe?). She has all the sass in the world.  She's an inveterate mischief-maker, garbage can tipster, door dasher, squirrel chaser, guardian of the front window and back yard.

As they say, dogs are a reflection of ourselves.  So, yeah, I'm part Good Girl, part Mischief Maker.

But enough about me.

If you're here, you're probably interested in one or more of the following:

• Losing weight, perhaps an enormous amount, and/or maintaining a healthy weight
• Eating like a champ, despite the desire to wear cute clothes
• Looking like a queen despite zero fashion, hair and makeup skills
• Paying the least amount while getting what you want, what you really really want
• Discovering Boopsandbugs' favorite things (kind of like that mega-celebrity's favorite things but for real people)
• Bad jokes
• Cocker spaniels, polar bears and other cool animals
• Random thoughts of someone you'll probably never meet

So welcome, new virtual friends.  Pleased to meet you.  Hope you guess my name. Not really though because that would be stalkerish.
