I like to have a physical image in my mind about how much weight I've really lost. I took the time to research some of this stuff, and if you're interested to know (roughly) "what" you've lost, here's a list:

1 lb = 4 sticks of butter
3 lbs = a half gallon of milk
5 lbs = a bag of sugar
7 lbs = an average newborn
10 lbs = a bag of rice
15 lbs = a larger bag of dog food
20 lbs = a car tire
25 lbs = an average tuba
30 lbs = an adult male southern koala
40 lbs = a bag of mulch
50 lbs = a bicycle
60 lbs = a kayak
70 lbs = a mini-fridge
80 lbs = a full 10 gallon aquarium
90 lbs = a jackhammer
100 lbs = a large male deer

Go ahead, what have you lost? :flowerforyou:
