Just a bit of Clover time because she didnt want to do Halloween much but thats ok... so if anyone remembers, Clover came to us as a hopalong disabled piggy with an old leg break injury that had healed all lumpy and stiff. I've noticed her limping much less after slimming down and toning up with lots of exercise on soft flooring... but today I saw Clover standing on her back legs to nibble the carrot cottage roof! Took a minute to register because all the other piggies were doing it and I missed getting a photo, but this is a piggy that couldnt put any weight on her back leg at all 3 months ago without a big dose of metacam, standing up on her hind legs for fun :) so happy for her!
 
Clover is so much more friendly now too, she used to be all hiding and teeth chattering and snapping at the other piggies because she was in pain, but she's a big friendly giant now (as long as she has a free run at the dinner!).

They aren't much lighter but they are definitely more toned up, less tummy fat and no double chins dragging on the floor, and they can zoom about if the mood takes them! Jezebel is a champion floofy chubby high jump star, she hurdles very tall things most impressively with her floofy pant fur flying out behind her :)

It sounds amazing and I think this needs to be captured in a slo-mo video - what do you think?!

More toned up is good.:nod: Losing weight will come later. It takes longer to lose it than it does to put it on.:woot: The longer it takes to come off the easier it is to keep it off:hmm: (well in theory anyway - pity that never works with me!:blink:)
