Default Things that weigh as much as you lost!

I found this cute an idea for motivation. Do a little online searching and post a picture of something that weighs as much as you have lost.


For example, I've lost 8lbs... Just like this this 8lb Yorkie Terrier!

Wow Joanie, what an achievement! And though that baby elephant is uber-cute I bet you're glad you don't need to heft his weight around all day every day now! Congratulations on an awesome job!

I've lost 16 pounds which is as much as a sledge hammer! Thanks for this great motivation. I was feeling like 16 pounds isn't that much because I still have so much more to go. But when you look at it like this it really is alot. Life has got to be easy when you're not dragging around all of that useless weight! I'll think about dragging that sledge hammer around all day.

I'm within a couple of pounds of losing my 5 year old son!! lol!

I marvel every time I pick him up that I was carrying around all that extra weight - I would have a very tough time carrying him up or downstairs anymore, yet I was carrying myself with all that excess. and I still have another 1.5 of him to go, after I lose the first one!

This is a great thread to be able to put in perspective the amount of weight we've lost. Whether we have 20 lbs to lose or 200 lbs to lose, any progress we make is progress worth celebrating. So good job everyone!
