Where Does It Go?

There are a bunch of us out in in OH cyberland losing weight every day.  I've lost 130 lbs of my own.  My goodness, if we added up the weight loss of everybody on the MD board the results would be staggering.  I seem to recall a thing from science class all those years ago called the Law of Conservation of Mass.  If I remember correctly, it said something to the effect that matter can't be created or destroyed (wouldn't my teachers be proud!).  I'm sure I'm *******izing the concept but I figure it means that if we lose weight, it can't just disappear.  It has to go somewhere.  There must be equalibrium.  My question is where does it all go?  My wife said she would like to start.  She says a lot of the weight that I lost went "straight to her a$$."  Please excuse the language as there could be a tad bit of bitterness there.  I would love to hear what you think.  Post your answers below. Have fun with this.  I look forward to seeing how creative you are, --Eric

LOL Eric only you!    My weight went to my husband's belly!   LOL I am sure he can relate some with your wife!   ROFLMBO

Its going all to me...Im sitting her reading about everyone losing weight while eating Grandma Corbi's chocolate chip cookie dough out of the container...and I dont feel guilty...(yep..I havent had the surgery yet)...lol

I think my ex and his 'friend' have found all of mine. (insert evil giggles here)  :)

I think I got some of it, too! (in the same place- and believe me I didn't need any help there ). Can't wait to join you on the loser's bench. You've done a fabulous job- keep up the good work! Donna

you know what Eric I am not sure where it went but it is NEVER coming back to this body, but if someone finds my boobs, please let me know. Hugs Kristen

Kristin, wish I could send you some of mine, lol. How does one lose 90#, and only go down 1 bra size? Sorry guys, I know you can't relate.  My theory, or is it my greatest wish, is that all of my discarded excess went to my ex, and perhaps maybe even his new wife . I should thank him. I did all my research about the surgery for HIM to have it. He never will, I would bet a large sum on that. But, I have, and I am getting my health back. His loss, in more ways than one.

My wife has decided that my logic was contained in my fat cells.   This would explain why I now feel the need to run 20+ miles a week and can't figure out why my knees hurt or why I keep losing weight.    Just as your wife...mine feels that there is somesort of cosmic attraction of my fat to her body. Great question though!  :-)

I have not had my surgery yet. I am almost 3 months into my supervised diet. Well it will be 3 months on the 16th of April. I have lost 22 pounds and I think that my financee found them, but there is a guy a work that knows I am dieting and every time I go for my checkup asks me how i am doing and what I lost and I tell him. He says yep well do not worry you did no loss them I found them. I am very blessed to have so much support during all this. Great Questions though. I wish I knew where it went.

It’s seems that all spouses (current and ex), pre-surgery folks and even co-workers are getting all the excess weight.  I kinda always suspected something like that but now it is confirmed.

I’m definitely on the Kristen boat that it is never coming back to me.  Hey Kristen, while I'm on that boat, I will definitely keep my eyes open for your boobs! Great answers, everybody!! --Eric
