An average newborn...without giving birth, woohoo!
ReplyDeleteWell, I had lost a bald eagle, but packed on a rack of baby back ribs on vacation. So I have only lost the amount of chemical additives that each American consumes in a year.
ReplyDelete10 Dozen Large eggs.. ewww!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on what you have lost so far!!! Keep it up girl!
Haha - I love this!!!! I have lost an average house cat in just 2 weeks!

Isn't this so much fun than looking at the number on the scale! I love it! Congratulations to everyone and their loses, it doesn't matter if we slip up a meal or two, have a bite of cake, or don't exercise one day... just keep your eye on the long term goal, becoming healthier! Were all doing it, so Kuddos to all!
ReplyDeleteThat is fantastic - you are a strong lady and I admire you, having joined this site for just one day!
ReplyDeleteThank you very much for your kind words, I appreciate them so much. Support makes all the difference in my journey!
ReplyDelete80 pounds = the World's Largest Ball of Tape
ReplyDeleteAnd still more to go! I am looking at 160 for my goal weight even though the dr. is saying 130. I started at 336 (yep another 330 lady), 5' 1/2". I now am at 254. However, I had gastric bypass. Not the loser's way out, just a tool to get me there. I have lost and found the same pounds for YEARS. After almost a year of doctor-supervised weight loss plan, it was time to go for the gold. I had my surgery in October 2009.
I've lost an Irish Setter. Poor puppy!
ReplyDeleteTheresa - goodbye to the ball of tape forever! Congrats on your success, keep up the great work. No way is bypass the losers way out, you are making serious life changes and working towards your health. No way would I knock that! I'm so proud of you!
ReplyDeleteMolly - Bye Bye Irish Setter, there won't be any Missing Dog signs put out for you! LOL, keep up the great work ;)
