    I've lost a gold brick--that doesn't seem that big. Then I realize I've almost lost my Golden Retriever, who I can barely lift.

    I've lost an elephant penis. Which is funny to me, because when I started my diet I thought I would NEVER loose any weight. I had to quit thinking about a long term goal and just tell myself "You eat an elephant one bite at a time and you loose the weight one pound at a time." It worked, cause I'm at 65 pounds lost. I'd claim the 66 pounds, but that is just gross. :p So glad I've changed my eating habits. And I read through the list, holy crap, the average american eats a BUTT load of refined sugar a year. Pun intended.
