I realized this morning that I am down 100 pounds from my hightest weight.  That's 100 1 pound packages of butter that I used to carry around with me all the time.  Is that crazy, or what???  Every time I think to myself that I've only lost a pound, I picture that pound of butter and suddenly it seems like a lot!

Way to go, Carol!!!   Can you imagine carrying around 100 1-lb packages of butter right now?  Imagine how heavy that would be and how you would be huffing, puffing and hurting.  That was YOU not that long ago!  

You have done such a great job - really happy for you

Congratulations.  That's a wonderful accomplishment to lose 100 pounds.  Great job working that sleeve!  I like your visualization of pounds of butter. 

best wishes,

Carol

Mmm...butter...

Ha ha.  Just kidding.  That's amazing news and great imagery to keep you motivated.  I'm going to swipe it for my own use.

What a great image! I might have to steal that.

The other day I was in the store and lifting a 10 lb bag of kitty litter into my buggy. I thought about how ridiculous and impossible it would be for me to take 15 bags of kitty litter and strap them all over my body and carry them around FOR DECADES but I did the equivalent of that. No wonder I feel so much better now! I am sure you do too.

I've had that revalation with kitty litter, too.  I could barely carry it up the steps to my apartment.
