count down

Why does 86 days seem so close but 41 pounds seem so far?
 "its because days go by no matter what! pounds can only be lost through work! DUH : ]"

I have decided to make myself a giant count down for our fridge. Similar to the one on "I use to be fat" but instead of "days" it'll be the "pounds" left to lose. Every time I lose a pound, I'll rip a page off. 

Because who wouldn't find the pleasure of ripping off a page every time they drop a pound?
