Any guesses?
I'm pretty happy with my novel prep so far, plan to start revising the text soon. Somewhat nervous about that since it is still a major pain trying to do any editing with ViaVoice; I just have to remind myself to be patient. 
Hey, I've lost 8 lbs. since Christmas! Back to my normal weight now. For me, it's not so much about the numbers as it is about how I'm feeling physically. Even without stepping on a scale, I can tell when I haven't been exercising or eating very well. After a week of slacking off, I feel crabby and restless. After a few weeks, my mind seems to slow down and I have less energy. I get stressed out more easily. 
What I find works for me re: weight -- get regular exercise and don't eat if I'm not hungry. Sounds obvious, but it's a challenge sometimes. For me, real exercise has to involve sweating and puffing; it's just not enough otherwise. And the eating if I'm not hungry goes against the "always clean your plate" rule I was brought up on. I always tend to feel guilty leaving food on the plate. My solution: save the leftovers and use it for another meal. Sometimes it's also a challenge to stop eating if what you're eating tastes really good even if you're already sated. Speaking of exercise...Went out for run/walk at lunchtime today. Cooold, but invigorating! It's tough to catch my breath sometimes in very cold wind, but I like the challenge. :-) 
Answers to yesterday's filk picture poll: Bill Sutton, Rand Bellavia, Brenda Sutton and Adam English. Saw the Suttons' photos when I was visiting last month, and saw Rand's and Adam's college photos when I was visiting Rand earlier this week. I've posted some more today...any guesses? Are you a filker willing to submit your childhood photo to a future poll? Please feel free to send it!
