MY WORLD SEEN FROM THE LOSERS' BENCH...
A stone per pound
Posted 03-22-2008 at 02:59 AM by Vim&Vigour
A fun thread came on yesterday, with a table of the equivalent of your loss by a different measure
According to it, I have lost the equivalent of an elephant's heart, have still a 5000 BTU air conditioner to lose until I reach my goal of a 2 month old horse.
However, as I feel stronger and different about my weight loss surgery than I do compared with any other dieting I have ever done, I know that my RNY will work! I am DETERMINED for it to WORK! I SHALL SUCCEED!
For every pound I loose, I place a stone in my garden, thus building very gradually a flower bed - my reward upon reaching my goal is to plant a flowering bush (rhododendron, camelia, hydrangea, magnolia...) for me to tend and which will give me great pleasure and be a secret reminder that out of planting these stones I have blossomed... For any weight put on, a stone per pound comes away - now who would want to spoil my garden?
