Fascinating, but depressing to know I've got to lose a new born calf, an elephant's penis and a Chihuahua.

Will be delighted if I lose the Chihuahua this week!

This is going to be like the Randoms advert isn't it?
 
Haha, yup - I think so!

Good luck getting rid of that flea ridden dog this week :) I'm aiming to lose best part of a human head or a newborn baby at the very least - but then, it is my first week.

Hehe x
 
Just think, if we were counting calories we would only lose two guinea pigs on a good week.

Can't wait till I've lost an average fashion model. Anyone under 10st is obviously a freak of nature.
 
Wow! I've lost an average 2 year old! I still have to lose a tyre and a cat! LOL
 
awww that is brilliant thank you xxx
it is always more motivating to have it as something visual or tangible.
i may have to print it out and stick it to my scales!

and now my 1lb mister Jim has company!

OK Short and Dumpy, what is the picture?!
 
it is indeed! we call him 1lb Jim on here hehe
sometimes when the scales fail to show us the love we deserve ;) or when i can't resist the seductive mid week weigh in, and feel sigggh only a pound, i find looking at the Jim helps to remind me and re ground me.

I also like Photographic Height/Weight Chart

i have lost an average 2 year old, holding an average house cat, that has just eaten an average guinea pig! xx yay!
 
Oh my, that is so disgusting. I would have imagined my squidgy bits looked a little more marshmallow-like before seeing that, so that is a great reality check. Let's get rid of it!
 
Ooh, I've just looked at the height and weight chart, too. That's really clever.

I've chosen who I want to be. Only problem is she's 20 years younger than me and 6 inches taller!

Seriously, having never really been slim before it's good to know what build I might possibly become (genetic limitations taken into account, of course!).
 
I prefer it to numbers and bmi calculators.. I am a more visual person hehe.

I did do a little search through the height and weight chart too hehe and decided, my thighs will NEVER look like some of those lovely ladies in shorts.. but also... my thighs will NEVER AGAIN look like some of the other ladies.

I like comparing where I am now, where I want to be and from where I have already come.. that helped.. as it is so hard to see the changes in ourselves, as we are the ones staring each day into the mirror, but comparing pictures of people at my start weight to now, does help a little.
