So far I've lost a 2 year old. (He was a pain in the butt anyways...)

I'm still pre op but I want/need to lose the average size man to get to my goal!

I've lost a bale of hay so far! Still have an Irish setter to lose to meet my goal!! How funny. Puts things in perspective for sure!!!!

A newborn Giraffe

A bale of hay!

I'm just over a week post-op and I've lost a sperm whale’s brain, and a rack of baby back ribs, yea me!!

This is cool I lost a new born calf lol

I've wondered what a cinder block weighs. So looking forward to stopping carrying around three cinder blocks each and every moment of the day. Good grief!

New born calf here, working on a two month old horse and that should be the end!
