Bump, still trying to figure out how to hold three cats and take a picture at the same time. :laugh:

Try asking them to sit, by the time they do, you will have lost the kitten too!

MFP...the only place where you will hear someone excitedly proclaim that they have lost their toddler.

I did this a couple weeks ago when I hit the 28 lb mark. One bag of dog food!

This made me laugh out loud.

I dont think I could walk around with an extra 72lbs for a day and not look awkward.

I've lost a Dalmatian, or about 2.5 gold bars. Unfortunately I don't have either handy for a photo right now!

All of their names are applicable. Velcro would be no problem, except Orange can't stand him. Spaz and Houdini might be issues though.

Awesome idea but ouch. It pains my joints just to think about it.

A few months back my 12 year old was helping me food shop and was carrying a 10lb bag of potatoes for me. I told him, "I used to have four times that amount on my body, carrying it around." He was about as impressed as you might imagine a 12 year old boy can be in the health accomplishments of his 45 year old mom, ie none at all, but I was feeling pretty darn proud.

I love this idea! Thanks for sharing.

Back in 1995 I was at an all-time high of 348 lbs (PIG!!!) I'm at 314 now and have been as low as 261 lbs since that fateful weigh-in in 1995. So for nearly 20 years I have been yo-yoing from basically 260-350 lbs. I'm going to try your challenge and walk around the gym for a while carrying dumbbells to represent the weight - only be about 35 lbs now, but I want to see that 260 lb again and then carry around an extra 90 lbs in dumbbells. Wow!!! It will prove to me that basically it was a "dumbbell" carrying the dumbbells! Thanks

Speaking of 12 year olds - I'd like to lose one!!!!

Holy cow, this is a great thread - I needed this motivation lately as I've been a bit plateaued. I especially love this picture - those bags are HEAVY and I've lost at least one. Might be a picture taken at my house when I get home tonight, just sayin' :-)

Great idea, I need to wait until I lose more but will definately do this.

I picture Oprah and her wagon of fat from 1988.
