I've lost almost 30 pounds = amount of cheese an average American eats in a year.

Somewhere between a 5-gallon bottle of water or an average human leg
and an elephant's heart!

Thanks for the inspiration! You are right, we get so caught up in the number each week that we sometimes forget about the big picture.

As of this morning, I am down 24.8# so looks like I lost someone's 2 year old. I'm sorry, but I do not intent to find your child

I've lost an elephant heart on IP (also equivalent to my 5yo DS I might add), but a 5000 BTU air conditioner in total!

No Amber Alerts please, but I've lost your 2-year-old. He/she was a difficult one anyway...!

HMMM... let's see, originally I lost the equivalent of a newborn calf then, I gained back the equivalent of a 3 gallon tub of premium icecream (EEK! isn't that the truth!!), that left me with a net loss equivalent to the fats and oils an average American eats in a year. In those term I can see so clearly how diet effects weight. WOW!!

With what I have managed to lose getting back on track my total losses are now back to a largest ball of tape.

I have lost an irish setter. Crazy. This is pretty funny to look at. I have never seen a 26lbs bale of hay. Our hay bales weigh in at 80-85lbs.

I`d imagine they`re talking about those little square bales rather than the big round ones...
