Ah, thanks.

prokaryotes, which most bacteria are, are hundreds of times smaller than eukaryotic cells which make up the cells in your body. it take thousands of bacterium to match the weight of a single eukaryotic cell. Therefore, while only 2-9 pounds are bacteria, 2-9 pounds of eukaryotic cells would take up much more room. The bacterium to eukaryote ratio could be 1000:1 and your body weight would only double

fair enough, just implies that the mass is the impressive thing rather than number.
