Queen of Best Intentions

I need to lose weight for my health. My family is worried about me and so am I. I want to be alive to enjoy grandchildren someday. Spark people has given me the tools to learn to love myself. This program has also given me the support I need to change my poor eating habits and to make exercise a daily part of my routine.

Hi.

One of my teammates posted this and it is so funny I wanted to share it with some folks that may not have had a chance to read it.

Here are some weight comparisons...What equivalent have you shed and what will you be shedding?

1 pound = a Guinea Pig
1.5 pounds = a dozen Krispy Kreme glazed donuts
2 pounds = a rack of baby back ribs
3 pounds = an average human brain
4 pounds = an ostrich egg
5 pounds = a Chihuahua
6 pounds = a human’s skin
7.5 pounds = an average newborn
8 pounds = a human head
10 pounds= chemical additives an American consumes each year
11 pounds = an average housecat
12 pounds = a Bald Eagle
15 pounds = 10 dozen large eggs
16 pounds = a sperm whale’s brain
20 pounds = an automobile tire
23 pounds = amount of pizza an average American eats in a year
24 pounds = a 3-gallon tub of super premium ice cream
25 pounds = an average 2 year old
30 pounds = amount of cheese an average American eats in a year
33 pounds = a cinder block
36 pounds = a mid-size microwave
40 pounds = a 5-gallon bottle of water or an average human leg
44 pounds = an elephant’s heart
50 pounds = a small bale of hay
55 pounds = a 5000 BTU air conditioner
60 pounds = an elephant’s penis (yep, weights more than his heart!)
66 pounds = fats and oils an average American eats in a year
70 pounds = an Irish Setter
77 pounds = a gold brick
80 pounds = the World’s Largest Ball of Tape
90 pounds = a newborn calf
100 pounds = a 2 month old horse
111 pounds = red meat an average American eats in a year
117 pounds = an average fashion model (and she’s 5’11”)
118 pounds = the complete Encyclopedia Britannica
120 pounds = amount of trash you throw away in a month
130 pounds = a newborn giraffe
138 pounds = potatoes an average American eats in a year
140 pounds = refined sugar an average American eats in a year
144 pounds = an average adult woman (and she’s 5’4”)
150 pounds = the complete Oxford English Dictionary
187 pounds = an average adult man
200 pounds = 2 Bloodhounds
235 pounds = Arnold Schwarzenegger
300 pounds = an average football lineman
400 pounds = a Welsh pony

I personally have lost a 2 month old horse. I am hoping to get rid of 2 bloodhounds and and an average 2 year old!
Remember, we do this 1 Guinea Pig at a time. emoticon
I hope you get a kick out of this too.
Hugs,
Belinda

Hey girlfriend.

I just wanted to say that i know you are very busy and don't have the time to spark like you did before, ( Me either) but i want you to know I think of you often and hope you are able to maintain your weight loss even if you aren't able to focus on losing more right now.
Life happens, but we have to stay healthy, too many folks counting on us!!!

Hugs and wishes for many blessings,
Belinda
