Really good point. That visual is awesome.
But as someone who put on a few pounds over the holidays, it's also rather horrifying! LOL4 -
Hmm considering the recent 15+ I put on! But yes I remember googling 50 pounds of fat too. Granted the weight lost is all fat.1

I’m ok with it. I’ve maintained my weight for over 2 years even thought I think I have a few more pounds to lose. If it’s meant to happen, it’ll happen if I feed my body the food it was meant to eat. I eat when hungry. Only when hungry.
That makes sense. Not because it’s Christmas dinner. Not because it’s someone’s birthday. Not because the company paid for Panera at some meeting... not because I have a craving and certainly not because I didn’t hit my fat macro.
Food goes into my mouth in response to need. Not entertainment or boredom. If I’m truly hungry, I’ll eat meat. Otherwise I can wait.7 -
I couldn't find the actual link but I cut and pasted this from another site. I've lost an elephant's penis but I prefer to think of it as 12 five pound bags of potatoes.
