    This is so funny, I have always thought of the pounds I lose as being equivalent to a pound of hamburger. When I lost my first two pounds about a month ago, I said I lost a whole meatloaf. Now I am up to losing three meatloaf's. 6 pounds doesn't sound like much, but it really is if you think about it that way, lol.

    Traditionally, 'bumping' a thread is making a quick post so that the thread goes to the very top of the Recent Posts list. You bump it to the top!

    At myfitnesspal, it's slightly different - by making a single post in a thread, the topic will get added to your 'My Topics' list. So people are saying 'bump', but what they really mean is 'add this to My Topics'. As a side effect the topic will go the top of the Recent Posts list.



    I've lost 120 eggs. Nice ;)
  • A small bale of hay and an ostrich egg... interesting. :)
