I LOVE IT! I'm on my way to losing a baby giraffe!
Also, when I get bummed when I've only lost a pound, I go to the meat department in the grocery store and pick up a pound of hamburger, and just feel its bulk and heft. Holding a pound of flesh in my hand like that (kinda gross, I know) makes me realize that a pound IS good enough, and that I just need to be patient and keep on track!0 -
I am down by a head...literally? Ha ha ha....now just have to lose my cat and I will be great!0

LOL I like it. I weighed myself today and only lost 1 lb when I should have lost 2 (I selected 1 lb a week and it's been 2 weeks), so I was feeling kinda bummed. I just went to my fridge and got a pound of butter out. You're right. A pound is surprisingly hefty. I feel a bit better now.0 -
Love this! I always look at my weight like this, but it's usually in food. So even losing 1/4 of a pound is a cube of butter! Two pounds is a brick of cheese. it always makes me feel better to look at it all like this.0
