Not at lot new to report, other than I've completely fallen in love with the Macbook and a quick update on my weight loss:

I'm two pounds away from my first benchmark goal. I've got a total of 105 lbs. to lose, and I set myself rewards at certain weight levels. The first reward comes after losing 45 lbs. I'm at 43 lbs. of weight loss as of yesterday morning since March, when I started the program. The next levels are at 65, 85 and the final goal of 105.

Not too shabby if I do say so myself. I've dropped six inches on my waist and gone from a 3xl shirt down to an xl. I actually clothes shopped last week OUTSIDE of the big and tall section.

Trust me, when I hit my benchmark levels, I'll report it. Hell, I'll practically scream it.
