Just for fun: ENJOY!

I thought I'd throw something a little less serious out there for everyone. At the Floch Associates support group last night, someone had mentioned their weight loss in terms of having lost weight equivalent to that of a small child. I poked around on the internet, and here's what I've come up with. How do you compare? Since my surgery, I've lost a watermelon. HOW MUCH WEIGHT HAVE YOU LOST ? If you lose..........You've lost the equivalent of.......... 1 pound..........a Guinea Pig 1.5 pounds..........a dozen Krispy Kreme glazed donuts 2 pounds..........a rack of baby back ribs 3 pounds..........an average human brain 4 pounds..........a pineapple 5 pounds..........a Chihuahua 7.5 pounds..........an average newborn 8 pounds..........a human head 10 pounds..........2 reams of paper 15 pounds..........10 dozen large eggs 20 pounds..........a watermelon 24 pounds..........a 3-gallon tub of super premium ice cream 25 pounds..........a 2 year old 30 pounds..........a ****er Spaniel 33 pounds..........a cinder block 36 pounds..........a mid-size microwave 40 pounds..........a 5-gallon bottle of water 44 pounds..........an elephant's heart 50 pounds..........a small bale of hay 55 pounds..........a 5000 BTU air conditioner 60 pounds..........an elephant's penis 66 pounds..........a 2.7 cubic foot refrigerator 70 pounds..........an Irish Setter 77 pounds..........a gold brick 80 pounds..........a 10 year old 100 pounds..........a 2 month old horse 118 pounds..........the complete Encyclopedia Britannica 130 pounds..........a newborn giraffe 150 pounds..........the Oxford English Dictionary 200 pounds..........2 Bloodhounds 400 pounds..........a Welsh pony

Too Funny Bette !!!

I've lost 44 lbs. (wow a five gallon bottle of water) Makes me feel better. If anyone has ever been to Health Extenders Sue has a rubber 5lbs. of fat (which looks so real) It's really nasty to hold and it is the actual weight of 5 lbs. I'm stuck now and need a fill but unfortunately I don't have the money right now to just spend 200.00. I saw Dr. Erhlich today and he said most people have 4 fills. The one thing I wish I knew ahead of time was the cost of fills. I would have saved the cash. But, honestly I wish I would have known. It was a shock to me when I read the info on fills(maybe it was mentioned and I had my blinders on) and had to sign the fill form at one of my office visits that I understood the insurance wouldn't pay after 90 days. I'm unemployed and my husband just got a job so hopefully next month I can afford it. The good news is that I didn't gain any weight over the holidays, Yeah.

Bette, This made my day, how funny I've lost 30lbs and I have a ****er spaniel, looking at him kind of puts the 30 lbs in perspective !!! My goal is that newborn giraffe Deb

how fun knowing I've lost a small pony! Wow, this is so cool. Thanks Bette!! I still remember when OPRAH dragged out that bag of fat with her on stage when she was on Optifast. That was gross. Speaking of Oprah, she is having something about WLS this Monday. I hope it's not negative. Cheryl

OK, I don't know about the rest of the you but The 60 lb. Elephant Penis got my attention. I had to do a double take to see if I read right. ~Julie P.S. Thanks for the chuckle. I really needed that.

I couldn't resist putting that it. It was just too funny to me. I can't wait to hit that mark so I can tell everyone that I've lost an elephant's penis!
