    I find it incredibly ironic that I've now lost the equivalent to the amount of pizza Americans eat in a year considering that I WORK at a pizzeria and I don't even eat pizza. Hilarious.

    Found this list, think it's a great way to visualise how much you have lost. Especially when people say they have 'only' lost a pound - that's a guinea pig! LOL. I've lost the chemical additives an American consumes each year (odd!).

    1.5 pounds = a dozen Krispy Kreme glazed donuts

    12 pounds = a Bald Eagle
    15 pounds = 10 dozen large eggs
    16 pounds = a sperm whale’s brain
    20 pounds = an automobile tire
    23 pounds = amount of pizza an average American eats in a year
    24 pounds = a 3-gallon tub of super premium ice cream
    25 pounds = an average 2 year old
    30 pounds = amount of cheese an average American eats in a year
    33 pounds = a cinder block
    36 pounds = a mid-size microwave
    40 pounds = a 5-gallon bottle of water or an average human leg
    44 pounds = an elephant’s heart
    50 pounds = a small bale of hay
    55 pounds = a 5000 BTU air conditioner
    60 pounds = an elephant’s penis (yep, weights more than his heart!)
    66 pounds = fats and oils an average American eats in a year
    70 pounds = an Irish Setter
    77 pounds = a gold brick
    80 pounds = the World’s Largest Ball of Tape

    120 pounds = amount of trash you throw away in a month

    But I guarantee that's not quite accurate for me...my husband and I generate about 2 small bags of trash per month, weighing MAYBE 25 lb. Big recyclers ;-)

    A newborn calf and a bar of gold. . . interesting combination. That is how much I've lost since my highest weight which is not what I use on MFP.

    It also equal to a little more than SIX CINDER BLOCKS used in construction. The thought of carrying 6 cinder blocks stuns me -- and makes me wonder how I ever got around at that weight. Never going back, that's for sure!
