I had to share this with you guys. This morning, I finally (!) hit eighty pounds down!! And, I decided to Google search for things that weigh 80 pounds. Guess what I found?? Snooki from Jersey Shore!! (Apparently she weighted 80 lbs at one point.)

Can you just imagine me having to carry her around?! Good riddance!! LOL!!!:frown:

Catherine

That's funny and great news!! I realized the other day that I've lost a little over how much my daughter weighs, which is 43 lbs. I can't even carry her for a few minutes without feeling like she's killing me. So to then realize that's how much I was truly carrying on myself was a HUGE eye opener.

What a great idea to look it up online. No wonder the more weight you loose, the more energy you have. Keep up the good work!

Way funny, Catherine. Whether it be 80lbs of fat or 80lbs of Snookie...both would be VERY annoying to carry around.

I lost over half of me but I ended up finding the best part of me! The 130lbs of me that I lost was a miserable, tired and achey old woman.

Way to go, Catherine! You look amazing and, I'm sure are an inspiration to many.

Your picture from Oct 08 was pretty and your May 2010 was beautiful.....you must be mind blowing by now!!!!

Congratulations on all your hard work!!!!

Awesome and congratulations!

I agree you look awesome in both pictures...very pretty...you can tell by the glow in your eye and the smile on your face how happy you are to get snookie off your back lol

GREAT JOB!

Cant wait till i get there :eek:

From the time I started exercisiing 10/2008 to now (banded 8/10) I have lost 100 lb. At my old job I had to walk up basically 3 flights of stairs (carrying my computer) to get to my desk every morning. It would take me a couple minutes to catch my breath. Most people would have trouble carrying a hundred pound person and a briefcase (purse, laptop, lunch) up 3 flights of stairs!

good to know, i hit my 80 pound mark on monday!

I texted a close friend to let her know and she texted back that i'd lost the equivalent of her 12 year old daughter!

Congrats!

Congratulations! Being rid of Snooki is a darn good thing!

Congratulations! Can't wait until I can say, "I lost Snooki!!":biggrin:

LOL!! Congratulations! You look AWESOME!

You look amazing. Great work.

That's hilarious! The mental image of carrying Snookie around cracks me up!

Way to go, you look great!!

Your picture from Oct 08 was pretty and your May 2010 was beautiful.....you must be mind blowing by now!!!!

Congratulations on all your hard work!!!!

Catherine, my feelings, exactly. Hurrah for you!!

I know that extra woman you carried is like taking the"monkey off your back". Karen(kll724).

YAY! Congrats! I couldn't see how losing a Snooki would ever be a bad thing...although I only wish that we could lose her from magazines and tv as well haha

You look spectacular!
