The "I carried something as heavy as my lost weight" post

And that item is a messenger bag filled with the textbooks I bought yesterday. With that over my shoulder, I weigh 183.4 pounds. Like everyone, I'm struck with the thought that it's freakin' heavy and I used to be carrying that weight all the time. But more fun is the thought that biking to school will carry as much weight, literally, as the biking to work I did this summer. Thus, less decrease in calories burned from routine daily activity.
