What have you lost?

Julia posted this some time ago.  I went looking for it this morning, as the scale has finally started to move again, and I wanted to be sure that I skip that 60-pound milestone. I've got a bit to go to get there, but I'll give that one a miss!  This is fun.  I've lost a small bale of hay and a guinea pig. What did you lose?

Linda, Thanks for bringing this out again.  I have thought about it too lately but just never hunted my computer for it.  Dang though--I thought I was way past that 60 pound milestone but need to add it in anyway.  I have lost The complete Oxford English Dictionary=150 #

An elephants apparatus  (penis) =60 # and  an ostrich egg  4 #    I guess that I will include the 60 pound milestone at this time but glad I skipped over it originally!!!   I guess I could say I lost 60 guinea pigs!           Julia
