Another 3 pounds have bitten the dust. :D

Down to 182, with the scale flickering down into 181. Only three more pounds to be my lightest adult wieght. Yay!!!!

^^

In other news, my project is going well. I haven't started writing the actual story, but am still working out things like the politics, some past history, the races and their roles, even silly things like costuming and architecture. Cool thing is, is that it's actually helping me redefine the plots, the characters themselves, and how certain interactions and situations will play through (or even how they're reached).

It's amazing how much can be shaped (or changed, in certain cases, since I'm cannibalizing several half-formed ideas, worlds, plots and combining them) by creating the world itself. It's even encouraged me to avoid the fangirl thing of insisting on keeping certain characters and situations the way they'd 'always had been', and instead putting them through some major overhauls so that they actually fit in and work well with the story.

This is, I think, a good thing.
