One pound only this is what it looks like

Yesterday I started my Trafford lifestyle programme and with this help and also the lifestyle programme I hope to get myself fitter again the lady that I meet yesterday showed us what a pound of fat looks like in our body's and how we should never say I've only lost a pound I was shock when we held it she also showed us a 5 pound lump of fat I will put the photo on so I hope it will help others like I now it's going to help me

All the best for this week everyone and let's go for that one pound love Kim xxx

Hi Kim,

Yes, it is a bit of a shock to see a pound of fat depicted isn't it. Your photo shows that really well.

I hope you don't mind, but I'd like to also link to a previous post, on the same subject, as LessToLose also did a great post showing the difference between fat and other things, so if you would like to see more pictures, then her post is here:

She's showing 5 pounds of fat versus 5 pounds of muscle - it shows how the body size and shape would change as we lost fat and gain some muscle.

Therefore, it's not all about the scales, but how we look and feel.

Hope you have a great week.

Wow Freya your so right we do become flippant when we say "only lost a pound.

Can't wait to see what 5 pounds look like.

Thank you☺
