The Omentum...HOW GROSS IS THIS?! MOTIVATION FOR SURE.

The omentum is almost a filter for toxins and fats that hangs off the bottom of your stomach.
The image on the right shows Dr. Oz holding the omentum of a person who is ONLY 30 lbs overweight. Oprah is holding a healthy person's omentum. This is seriously disgusting! This is motivation for me for sure. I hope this motivates all of you to keep on track and get your omentum looking healthy again.
The functions of the greater omentum are:
Fat deposition, having varying amounts of adipose tissue
Immune contribution, having milky spots of macrophage collections
Infection and wound isolation; It may also physically limit the spread of intraperitoneal infections.
The greater omentum can often be found wrapped around areas of infection and trauma.

Meh. It's not gross, it's cool! Hooray for how awesome our bodies are and how cool it is that they function even when we feed them crap and don't take them out for walks! I think it's pretty awesome.
Oh and in my mind, this is what's happening when I eat:
And that:
