First Goal Accomplished!

I'm back down to my pre-holiday weight. This was my goal for the entire month of January, and it didn't even take two weeks! Yahoo! No sugar is apparently the way to roll for me, much as it pains me. I've lost seven pounds in 10 days. You can't beat that with a stick. And I assure you I am doing healthily, eating full meals, and exercising regularly. My faith in myself and my ability to overcome this hurdle has officially been restored. Skinny jeans and tube tops, here I come! Heh.

Side note: my band mates and I decided on a name tonight. [THE DARLINGZ]. All caps, always in brackets, because two of us are transcriptionists and we wanted to include a nod to all the dutiful scribes out there. We have our first practice on Saturday, and we have set the goal of performing a three-song set at an open mic night in one month. Another distraction from eating is always a good thing. Bless thee, concertina accordion. Any good suggestions for songs we should cover? So far, we've decided on Life Is A Highway, Heartbreaker, Thriller, Somebody, Rebel Girl and a not yet decided Paul Simon tune. We're aiming for nine covers in our repetoire by the time it's warm again. I know y'all got some good ideas.
