If I Lost 25lbs can I bring an extra 25lbs in my Suitcase Home? Just Wondering...

Today marks the day I have lost 25lbs. I honestly think it should be an incentive the airlines offer while ppl are on their travels, I swear it would work! It's extremely hard to not buy new things when you miss a lot from home. I guess the only downside of the incentive would be that you would be on your travels and known of your clothes would fit you...you'd have to buy more anyway! I don't know how it happened or why it happened at this time but here are a few guesses. Maybe it was a combination of them all:
-I don't like gyms & refuse to pay for a membership, here I can use the outdoors to run during winter and summer, meaning I have a full year and not just 6 months of running.
-I live in the country and can run without breathing in car fumes the whole time, plus the cows kind of cheer me on.
-Now that I know where my meat comes from, learnt during the first week of being here, I'm uncomfortable with the fact of what I take from them. I no longer eat meat.
-After working with fruits & veg, I have a pretty good understanding how natural these foods are and how healthy they can be for you. I now try to make everything naturally.
-I'm not tempted by my fav type of anything here because the majority of it isn't the same, i.e. Smarties...taste different, made with different milk etc., Lays chips, don't have the brand here, known of my fav Juicy Jumbo hot dogs, oh and the Heinz Ketchup, I could notice the difference within the first bite.
-Alcohol is extremely expensive here so I can't bring myself to buy as much. The less I drink, the less I need to get drunk occasionally.
-I had no job for 3 months, why not start running? I had all the time in the world and while traveling around, it was a different beach everyday. What more could you want!
-All of my jobs I have had in the last 2 months here have been physically demanding.
-My workout is my only alone time, I can watch my fav T.v. show or a chick flick of my choice.
-I needed to find new hobbies while overseas. Crafts unfortunately aren't going to fit in my suitcase, a scrapbook should be saved for an 'at home' project. Cooking involves goods that eventually will disappear and working out is something I can bring home with me- minus the weights, won't be adding kg to the suitcase!
-I also brought this yoga magazine ($13) about 3 months before I came and actually had the time to read it, I reckon it wouldn't have happened if I didn't read this one page. I recommend for all to use! For a happier and healthier style of living:)
