It's only 1 pound!

I'm posting this for all my friends who are sad about only losing 1 pound.

Only One Pound

Hello, do you know me? If you don't you should. I'm a pound of fat, and I'm the happiest pound of fat that you would ever want to meet. Want to know why? It's because no one ever wants to lose me; I'm Only One Pound, just a pound. Everyone wants to lose three pounds, five pounds or fifteen pounds, but never only one, so I just stick around and happily keep you fat. Then I add to myself ever so slyly so that you never seem to notice it, that is until I've grown to ten, twenty or even more pounds in weight. Yes, it's fun being Only One Pound of fat, left to do as I please. So, when you weigh in, keep right on saying "Oh, I only lost one pound." ( as if that were such a terrible thing!) For you see, if you do this you'll encourage others to keep me around because they will think I'm not worth losing. And I love being around you - your arms, your legs, your chin, your hips and every part of you. Happy Days!! After all, I'm Only One Pound of fat!!!

    I think when someone only loses 1 poundit is very questionable they the loss came from fat. Much more likely it's water/bowel movement/less food in stomach at moment. But sure a pound of fat is great to lose if its a lb of fat

    That's so true! Years ago at Weight Watchers, when I reached my goal of 30 lbs. lost, I said something like, "....but it to a whole year to reach my goal!" right when I was being congratulated publicly by all. You have to focus on the positive - not "only" a pound, and not "a whole year", but just that you did it! No matter how small or long "it" was!
