Countdown to 100lbs

What 50 pounds looks like

With each milestone I am going to post what it looks like.  I am a few pounds late on this but better late than never.  Here we go.

 1bag of 50 lbs of soil

It is 10 of these 5 pound bags of potatoes

I would have to buy 25 of these 2lb tubs of cookie dough


Most of all it also looks like this
350

295

I will get more creative when I hit the 60 lbs mark.  Looking at it this way puta whole new perspective on things.  I don't know how I was even walking around 50 lbs ago because the 50 bags of soil about killed me going to far but I used to live like that everyday.  I am so blessed that God provided me a way and a will to take my body back.

    So proud of you, you are doing so great! The visualizations really do help a lot. Just picking up a 5 pound weight at the gym and knowing how little that may seem when we lose it, but its not. Every little bit helps. Keep it up girl! woo hoo!

    I am so impressed with you!!!! Seeing the weight in other terms like the soil and cookie dough is a great representation. You look fabulous by the way... :-)

    I love your spin on this. It's not uncommon to see the "what x looks like" posts...but I tink this is the first I've seen that ends with "most of all it also looks like this" and then it's YOU! I love it! That's amazing progress!!
