    But what colour should the pebbles be?

    The colour of internal organs? Fat maybe?
    What is the bag made of? Is it recyclable? Will it break down over time? Can I exchange it for a new one at any point? Can I make repairs on it? What happens if you drop the bag and all the pebbles fall out?

    I want my pebbles to be pretty rainbow colors!

    But here's the real question: do clean pebbles weigh less than dirty pebbles?

    (I'm going to duck and run away from the thread after asking that one.)

    So that's like our insides with all the "pebbles"?

    Of course, now I'm thinking about that icky New Zealand Herald thread.

    And what happens if I decide to throw the pebbles at you instead?

    Disappointed. What if the pebble had poo on it?

    So, what you're saying is, if I have a pebble in my shoe, and I remove the pebble, I'll lose weight?

    But are they African or European pebbles?

    Actually, I find your ice cream eating armadillo far more useful.

    Losing weight is simple. Just think of it this way:

    If you have an empty bag and you put a pebble in and not take one out then you will have one pebble in the bag. If you keep putting pebbles in and not taking them out then the bag will become full. But if you put 1 pebble in and take 2 out soon the bag will be empty.

    The bag is a metaphor for all the fat that your body may have. Doesn't matter what you eat as long as you're taking more out of that bag than you're putting in you will lose weight. Good luck!

    Your posts are always so positive and helpful.
    Really a happy little guy arent you?

    And your logging is excellent too, just checked your diary went back a week and a half and only saw some food logged for today

    Really a big help, and 0 pound lost or to lose. wow indeed ULTIMATE example

    I'm calling you on this - it's a joke right? It's so simplistic that it doesn't make sense.

    Perhaps do away with the trying to be clever approach and share what you really mean.
