Dog Food

[Leepers 1,195]

Once a month I go buy this bag of dog food for my fur babies. It's heavy for me to handle and I always struggle with it a little bit. It is a 30 pound bag of dog food. That is how much weight I've lost so far.

I can't believe I was carrying that around on my body. And to think I need to lose about 3 more of those. Wow.

LapBand. Best. Decision. Ever.

That puts it into perspective doesn't it?

It does put it into perspective, and when anyone says "I've only lost 20 pounds", I say.....go pick up a 20 bag of dog food. Hard to believe that we carry so much extra on our bodies. No WONDER all the health issues! It's been a long haul, but I'm glad to say that I've got about another 10 pound bag to go

Wow - that is definitely a good reminder. I've lost 26 lbs and just bought dog food today as well. Congrats on the weight loss so far and I know you'll lose many more .

Great comparison....you are right....sometimes we dont realize how much our bodies carry because we have become so accustomed to it...i often think of carrying 15 5 pound bags of potatoes home at once...its crazy!!
