So I lost 3 more lbs last week bringing me to a total 9-lbs lost (woo hoo!). It got me thinking, wow, that's like losing:

one 5-lb bag of flour
one 4-lb bag of sugar
4 sticks of butter

Which got me wondering what other interesting items equaled my weight loss. I discovered:

1 broom weighs 7 lbs
292 pennies (from 1982 and earlier) weigh 2 lbs

How about you????

    You might want to put the butter back, 5 pounds of flour, 4 pounds of sugar, and 4 sticks of butter is 10 pounds, not 9. :tongue:

    Ive lost the equivalent of a 53 pound catfish.)
