What do 1 and 5 pounds of fat look like?!

Options
Okay, in need of motivation after getting super bummed about my slow weight loss this time around, I decided to look and see just what that "only one pound" looks like. This made me feel much better!

    Wow! That helped me so much as I near my goal and slow down in the weight loss. I was feeling a bit discouraged about 1 pound losses!

    I'd seen the 5lbs of fat vs. 5lbs of muscle at the gym before but it was really cool to see the one... and to see it in different ways like that! Thank you! :)

    Great video! Interesting to see, and I'm happy he demonstrated it the way he did, as that much taken from all over the body isn't anything to be upset about. I know I get discouraged when I don't see results right away, but it takes time!
