    It's too bad you didn't have the muscle models next to the fat ones. One of my WW leaders brought those out at a mtg, The 5lbs fat vs the 5lbs of muscle. The muscle 1/4 the size taking up far less area, showing if your wt doesn't change you may still be losing fat and gaining muscle. It's not always about the scale.

    even a pound of fat is eye-opening:

    I was just looking at it as a sheer visual motivator, regardless of if muscle takes up less space/weighs more/the same/etc... kind of like when I was doing bench press with 20lb dumbbells in each hand last night, and realized that I was holding the 40 pounds I want to lose... and it was damn heavy! Can't imagine (well actually I can) what that's doing to my bones! I am going to feel DAAAAARN fantastic once I get down to where I once was. Can already taste it! :)

    Blargh...I'm not sure if I'm revolted or excited that I've lost 23 lbs. Revolted because it was there in the first place. Excited because it's gone.
    :sick:

    Apparently for every ten pounds you lose, you gain 20 seconds (approximately) per mile! This means that I'll hopefully be able to run an 8 minute mile by the time I'm where I want to be, yahhooooooooooo!
