thats the way i figgered it too sarge...
ive lost a total of 182 pounds..hell i could pick up a third of that now if i wanted to...yet i was...no wonder i was tired all the time!!

Sometimes we don't realize how far we have come.
Great Perspective!!
I remember house hunting and being out of breath going up the stairs... after loosing the weight I actually moved into a 2 story house and ran up and down the stairs to get laundry and it wasn't even an issue.

I remember being at a weight watchers meeting back in the late 70's (this tells you the impression it made... having stuck with me all these years!) when the meeting lady passed around a pound of animal fat in a package...

She said the next time you "only lose a pound" remember you have one less of these you are carrying around...

Like I said, it's stuck in my head 35 ish years later!! :)

Wow that really does puts things into perspective. Thanks for the post.
Shelley :o)

Good idea sarge! Ill have to remember that!

My Weight Watcher memory is the if you eat 1 M&m
You need to walk the length of a football field to work it off
Didn't stop me though:/ lol

Lady at wieghtwatchers used to show us a 1/4 of butter and tell us a 1/4 pound a week was still a loss!

I was looking at my son's girlfriend yesterday, she is 4'11" tall, 108 pounds, and I thought, Oh My Goodness, I have almost lost a whole person!

I have lost enough weight to build another whole woman! I am well aware of the loss, too. And proud as heck about it. lol
