JB – based on what I can see here is you started with 4.4 pounds and after a mere 6 weeks plus trimming you ended up with 2.35 pounds. That computes to a 47% loss. Based on my own experience 6 weeks equates to a typical 20% weight loss from aging alone. That 47% is excessive IMHO and tells me you trimmed pretty heavily. To each his own, but you trimmed away a lot of what you took the time to age! …kinda like why bother? Ron
