When I hear a friend or see a post saying they've lost X-amount of weight I always compare it to something physical in my head.
'Hey GF- I only lost 8 pounds this month.. " Me- "That's AMAZING! My big lazy cat weighs 8 pounds- I'd love to shave that off me, it's a great accomplishment!"
"Heyy it's not much but I've lost 30 pounds on my journey so far!" Me- "that's literally 2 raccoons!! damn..legit"
Somehow I don't follow this way of thinking when it comes to my own progress, but maybe it would help..!
A 5 pound roast is pretty damn big and I'm proud of anyone who can lose that much. A 10 pound bag of potatoes is hard to carry around in the grocery store without a cart, getting that off your feet must be a relief. You lost 15 pounds? That's the weight of a 40" Flatscreen TV.
