And the ID subs have good ratings... I'm eventually going to get their 10" one

I got on the scale this morning and to my surprise I'm 11 pounds away from my target weight of 220lbs. The last time I weighed 220 was when I moved back to Iron Mountain in 2003 and 18 months ago I was 267lbs. Go me!!!!
