As most of you know, I hit an 80 pound weight loss at the beginning of this year. With some ups and downs, I am still there. A fellow blogger named Amy told me that I should embrace the journey I have been on already and how far I have come.
So, I have scoured the internet looking to see what people/animals/things weigh the equivalent of what I have lost in weight.
Black Rhino Baby- 80 pounds
Heavy bag for boxing- 80 lbs
4 car tires
It is amazing to see just a few of the things in this world that weigh 80 lbs and to realize I have lost that but gained a whole new perspective and view on health and my life!
I often compare it to going out to buy 10 lb bags of potatoes (in your case, 9 of them) and putting them in a backpack and toting them around for a day. I would imagine you would get pretty tired of them and consider it pretty heavy..but the reality would be you toted that around EVERYDAY! Be proud! :-)

ReplyDeleteThis is FANTASTIC!!! Congratulations on your accomplishments so far!!
Imagine picking up 4 car tires and going up a flight of stairs that are so easy for you now.... I bet it would be quite difficult!
Looking forward to bigger pictures on your next milestone! ;-) ;-)
