edited September 2024 in Motivation and Support
So, my FB friends have been finding my posts about how much weight I've lost hilarious because I keep posting pictures of fish that are the same weight that I no longer carry. I thought we could turn it into a fun motivational thing!

This week's image:

A 22 lb carp.

As some good motivation for all you folks out there, google your weight lost and the word "fish" and share a pic of how much in fish weight you have lost!

    I really enjoyed that too. Do you know the website to find those pictures? I forget what it is.

    Thanks!

    PS Great job on the weight loss!

    Find a link to a picture via google image search, then put the link in your response here by putting before (no caps) and after (no caps).

    Fantastic.
    Personally I think it's more of an ego boost to think of my weight loss in number of sardines. I'm at about 106 of little monsters now.

    I lost 40lbs of whatever this ugly thing is. It's just as unappetizing as the fat I had was.

    You are quite the pistol.

    I just ordered a weighted vest representing how many pounds I lost: 70lbs.

    And I just want to wear it walking just to feel how it felt when I first began.

    LOL yeah. I'm a fisheries biologist by training so I think of things in fishweight by default :)

    Just put LINK GOES HERE but in lowercase next time and the pic will show up :smile:

    Also, the link should be a .jpg ending not .html so you'll have to do an image search for the page with just the picture on it.
