I've lost:

*Approximately 206 cans of soda pop.

*Two 40 lb bags of Skoki dog food, two 10 lb bags of Royal Canin dog food, and a 3 lb bag of EVO cat food... (I work at a pet food store and think of my weight loss in terms of food bags all the time, haha!)

Love thinking about my weight loss in terms of objects :) What can you guys come up with?

    It's crazy to think of it in these terms...I couldn't imagine carrying around 4(5lb) bags of flour all the time!

    I've lost more weight than the weight of all of my animals combine.

    That's a 30 lb beagle
    A 25 pound sheltie mix.
    a 4 pound bunny
    a 1 pound chinchilla
    2 mice probably about 3oz each

    +7 pounds on top of that

    My 2 yr old is 27lbs and my 1 year old is 19lbs so I lost both of them plus what one of them weighed at birth! (7 more lbs). When I carry one on each hip its hard to believe I used to carry all that weight.

    Hahaha, I love the butter/lard ones. I think it was a Biggest Loser episode where they had to carry the weight they lost in butter once...
