A Picture's Worth 350,000 Calories

[r_a_l_i_g_h]

I know I've been doing a lot of this lately, and I know I owe a bunch of people comments and I know some of you are probably "Omigosh, Raligh, shuddup!" - But I have to do it AGAIN!

So, back on August 9th I gleefully posted a report of my three-pound weight loss in a single week, with accompanying images for visual representation of said loss

You're funny.

[r_a_l_i_g_h]

Almost everybody's saying that. What in particular is so funny? This is the way I react to things. (You see what I mean about me + normal = most people + high?)

[upanashad]

This for one: "This gentlemen is ALMOST as excited to have caught a ten-pounder as I am to be rid of the same!"

Hey Miss [b]Raligh[/b], this post reminds me that you might be interested in a lj community I belong to called "dancingpeas"...it's all about healthy living and lots of fun.

[r_a_l_i_g_h]

I have that community friended, and I've commented once or twice, but I haven't really had time to introduce myself properly and take part. Maybe when things calm down after this conference next month...

Thanks! I'm so thrilled!

You are so funny, I adore you.

[r_a_l_i_g_h]

I adore you too! - but would you mind telling me what specifically is so amusing? I've had three or four people talk about me being funny. Is it the giant chocolate? The juxaposition of baby and bowling ball? The idea of my face having the same expression as the eager fisherman? (For the first few hours it pretty much did!) It's pretty much standard reaction to my way of thinking. (Which, may be why people are finding it so funny, come to think of it.)

[carpedi7]

I think it was that you went through the time to find all kinds of things that were 10 lbs. Not to mention the bowling ball cracked me up. The big ass chocolate bar made me laugh too. I love your posts that mention random holidays and stuff like this, it just brings a smile to my face. :)

[r_a_l_i_g_h]

Heh. Not only did I search for images of ten-pound things, but searched for things that were the same as the things in my three-pound things picspam, and put them in the same order. Because I'm obsessive and insane like that.

The big ass chocolate bar made me laugh too. Me too. Go read the page where I got the picture from. It's very amusing. ( Dorm Room Fun With a Sugar High and a Digital Camara)

I'm glad you enjoy the randomness. That's, pretty much what my brain is like for a good 4-8 hours of the day.

Whoo Hoo! Congrats! =)

[r_a_l_i_g_h]

Oh, I've probably Woo-Hoo-d ten or twelve times since I weighed myself last night.

(Thanks!)
