So here we are more than 2 and a half years after hitting the goal weight. Dating and drinking have thrown off my careful balance of exercise and food and a bit of weight is creeping back on. But I'm aware and am not going to let it sliiiiiide all the way back to 200 lbs. In the last few years I've done a triathlon, run a 10k, hiked a glacier and the costumes, oh the costumes.

I worked a ton of overtime earlier this year, so for CONvergence last weekend here in Minnesota, I commissioned an amazing costume based on art by NoFlutter and crafted by KMKDesigns. It definitely deserves it's own professional photoshoot. And I'll be wearing it from here until eternity. Or for as long as my ribs can manage to put up with a corset. It's a miracle I didn't pass out.





Aaaaand, I've finally found someone to do my dream costume with me - from one of my favorite movies of all time (second only to the Empire Strikes Back) - Princess Buttercup and the Dread Pirate Roberts
