Only A pound!

[Mini]

Hello, do you know me?
If you don't you should. I'm a pound of fat, and I'm the happiest pound of fat that you would ever want to meet. Want to know why?

It's because no one ever wants to lose me; I'm Only One Pound, just a pound. Everyone wants to lose three pounds, five pounds or fifteen pounds, but never only one, so I just stick around and happily keep you fat.

Then I add to myself ever so slyly so that you never seem to notice it, that is until I've grown to ten, twenty or even more pounds in weight. Yes, it's fun being Only One Pound of fat, left to do as I please.

So, when you weigh in, keep right on saying "Oh, I only lost one pound." (as if that were such a terrible thing!)

For you see, if you do this you'll encourage others to keep me around because they will think I'm not worth losing. And I love being around you - your arms, your legs, your chin, your hips and every part of you. Happy Days!!

After all, I'm Only One Pound of fat!!!

Well done and good to hear you are happy:happy096:

Each pound off counts and when you see the fat replica it is pretty impressive!

Another interesting little tit bit is that a pound of fat contains about 3.5 miles of blood vessels.

Excellent post! Love to lose a pound myself. A pound a week is 52 pounds a year - I'll have that any day! xx

When you put it like that you can see just how much each pound off can all add up to quiet a substantial amount over a year.

But did you ever notice how easily it goes on...it never seems to go back on a pound a week as I know in my case I can gain seven pounds in a week no trouble:cry:

Great post. i will forever cherish the 1lb loss, even if it is 'only' 1lb. better to lose 1 rather than gain 1

Here is another interesting pic for those who are exercising and in the process of toning their bodies and often wonder why they are losing inches but the scales still read the same...I think this pic below illustrates it very well the difference of how 5lb of fat looks along side 5lb of muscle.
