It feels like 13 pounds in the scheme of things is NOTHING but then I realized - my dog weighs 13 lbs. I lost a whole dog!

What have you lost...

    I teach in an elementary school - I've lost a good sized 5th grader. No wonder I had such a tough time doing stairs. Imagine doing stairs with a kid on your back.

    That's funny, I too measure my weight loss by my dogs weight, I have lost one Twiggy Dog and need to lose another. Happy with that way of thinking as long as I get to keep the real dog.

    It's more fun to see it that way!

    I have a black lab puppy that is 6 months old. I am on 6 months of MFP, been trying to keep pace with his gains. Over the holiday he passed me up, now weighs upper 40s.

    Is pretty crazy picking him up and realize I use to carry that much extra with me all the time!

    I've lost my little cat. Working on losing the bigger cat, and then both cats together. (There is a huge weight discrepancy between my two cats; it's bizarre.)

    I have teacup Yorkies... One of them weighs 3lbs and the other weighs 5lbs ... So I've lost between 3-5 little dogs (15lbs).

    It's crazy to think I've been carrying around my dog this whole time. Next I wanna lose my other dog - she's 25 lbs! Then each cat another 12 pounds each.

    I looked at my 7 month old grandson the other day and realized I had lost the same amount he weighs! It felt good!

    I agree. I love the way you think. I have 2 boxers: 1 - 60 lbs female and 1 - 85 lbs male. I lost my female boxer.
