Cool Idea

Most everyone at some point tried Weigh****chers.  Remember what they used to say about "losing a bag of dogfood", heck my leader used to even bring it in with her on a cart.  It used to be an example of 50lb loss (truthfully though, most dog food bags are 40lbs today).  Anyway...

Wouldn't it be cool to meet up at a Walmart or something and stack all the dogfood bags together in a pile to show how much weight we all have lost.  THAT would be an AWESOME picture!!

What a neat idea, Lauren. That reminds me of when a talk show host pulled out by wagon, the amount of fat she had lost. The sight was amazing.

LOL, yeah, I'm thinking something might have to be coordinated with management for that.  Otherwise we would be getting some pretty strange looks in the pet isle!  :P

Will they have enough dog food? I would need 6 of those 40lb bags by myself.

Though the image of a bunch of WLS patients and a mountain of dog food bags does make me laugh. I'm in.

The tough part of WLS is not the first year, it's those that follow.

Mountain was the best word choice.  That's exactly what the image in my head was.  Okay then, Sam's Club - surely THEY have enough dog food.  I would need 4.5 bags. :)

What a great idea!  LOL  I was just thinking, I have lost what my two dogs weigh together (Lauren, you've seen them) -- two golden retrievers who go through 40 lbs. bags of dog food without even trying!  :)
