a VERY strange question


Quote  |  Reply

Where I work there are 12 of us losing weight together. We have lost from 5 to 12 pounds each so far in 3 weeks. Ya know on the talk shows like Oprah when they have the fake fat. Like a 5 pound piece of fake fat ??  lol...When ever I see that it really hits home just how much a pound or 5 pounds really is. My question is...does anyone know how I could make some of this fake fat. I know that sounds really gross. But Id like to make 12 one pound pieces of the stuff. So the girls at work can actually see what theyve lost. Weird huh ??   LOL

You can buy fake fat medical models online or buy animal lard. Actually making it is going to be hard becuase of the limited materials to use. A pound of clay is more likely to resemble a pound of muscle so count that seemingly obvious answer out :/

 

thanks for the reply moon doggie. I really didnt think anyone would. lol.  I was looking at the fake fat online. Its just more then I wanted to spend. What do you think would be about the same size and stuff ?

You could try going to a butcher and see if they'll give you a few pounds of fat..... You could put it in a sandwich bag but it would look so gross.

JELLO :)

jello....hmm, Iwas thinking the same thing....great idea !

They do sell actual replicas of fake fat vs muscle even. They are kinda expensive. When I lost 10 pounds, I would think of it like a sack of potatoes. Those 10 pound bags. Yea, go carry that around for a good hour and then let me know if avoiding a brownie every once in a while isn't worth it :)

How about using butter?

Butter's a good idea, I saw a thread on here a while ago where people were posting how many sticks of butter it would take to equal the weight they'd lost. 12 lbs=48 sticks of butter!
