I'm proud of my career, and I'm proud of my art. But the thing about which I am most proud is my weight loss.
The long-term success rate on weight loss is about .0005, or about one in two thousand. Musical careers have a much easier time than this thing I did on the side. And, speaking of career, my income got a serious boost at the same time I was coming off dieting: I joke it was the tights, but studies involving earnings and beauty standards suggest otherwise.
I get self-conscious about the priority I give to weight maintenance, but it all comes down to this being one of the heftier achievements of my life.
