    That's gross. I still have a hard time seeing my weight loss in myself although others comment on it. With 20 of these gone I wish I would see it more but know that I am never going back there again...ever.

    It's so crazy, I always think about that when I'm losing and try to remember that 5lbs may not seem like much but it definitely is!! It's a great motivation :)

    That's how much I need to lose to get to goal, and maybe a couple oz...

    Thanks for the post that really is great motivation that is much needed right now. I've only lost a total of 5 pounds which doesn't seem like much but after seeing this it helps keep things in perspective that 5lbs is a great start. =)

    anyone old enough to remember the old Oprah Winfrey show when she came on pulling a wagon full of chicken fat to show how much she'd lost? The OP photo reminds me of that. Good reminder!

    I've lost 22 of those! Or as its easier for me to think about the equivalent to 2 1/2 40 pound bags of dog food or 2 1/2 Golden Retrievers!!!!!! Lol

    She did gain it all back, and has gained/lost a few times since then. I can relate. My goal this time is to make this a new lifestyle, not a diet. I am SICK of regaining and struggling to lose, but on the bright side now I know so much more than I ever did. I understand how and why the regain happens, and I don't ever want to go back...
