If I ever weighed myself, I think I might start saying that I had lost x number of guinea pigs each week - if only to watch people's faces!
 
I need to lose 60lb just so I can declare that I've lost an elephants penis!
 
Wow - suddenly i feel good about the 11lbs i've lost - i wouldn't want to carry a cat round all day yet thats exactly what i did.
thanks
 
An excellent way of comparing weight loss!

I have lost an automobile tyre and 2 guinea pigs!
 
That's awesome... I've dropped a newborn baby (so to speak!) I'm totally going to be counting weekly losses in guinea pigs now :)
 
Close... so close... to having lost the world's largest ball of tape! :D :8855:

I love this list!
 
Love it - so far have lost a Chihuahua and half a Guinea Pig :D xx
 
84 Krispy Kreme donuts. Ironic because that's likely what made me gain in the first place! ;)

Sorry hun, hadn't taken into account you'd posted 2 weeks ago! I'm also glad that there's many many miles between me and a Krispy Kreme place...if there was one any closer I'd well and truly fall off the wagon :D xx
