    A great week marking less than 100 pounds towards my goal and almost 100 pounds down from my highest approximated weight (scale didn't go high enough/told me to FO). And an NSV of one of the engineers (ZERO social skills) complimenting me on my weight loss. Love the unsolicited weightloss observations! :D
