This morning I woke up in the mood to made a large vat of chicken chili - so I went over to Wal Mart and got the necessary ingredients, which of course includes many canned goods. That basket was so heavy!
When I got home, with the heavy bags in hand, I jumped on the scale with the bags to see how much I weighed with them in hand ( I figured that the bags weighed about as much as I had lost). But, to my surprise, my weight, with bags only came to 218lbs!
Those bags were soooo heavy, I am so blown away that I have managed to get rid of 40 LBS!!!! off my body- I can't even imagine carrying around that weight on me everyday, everywhere! It feels like it's been pretty quick as well, seems like just yesterday I re-committed to Weight Watchers.
I couldn't have made a better choice than getting my butt in gear. 40 lbs down, 60 lbs to go!!!
Woo hoo! It's so nice to actually see what the pounds lost look like. Sometimes I do the same thing with bags of potatoes in the grocery store lol. It's actually a really good anchor for when you're struggling to think about the weight that has come off of your body in terms of these kinds of items. Keeps things in perspective.
