So far I have lost a mid-size microwave, a human head, and a Chihuahua.
I think I will use this answer the next time I am confronted by the "diet police" (i.e. friends and family who ask that dreaded "how much have you lost so far" question).
This should make them stop and think... I already cannot wait to see the confused looks on their faces... lol
