Got a haircut and lost 50lbs!!


Ha ha ha if it was only that easy!  My hair wasn't long enough.  Not touching the floor.  Heck not even touching my butt!!  But long enough to start bugging me.  Feeling heavy.  Needing to be put into a pony tail to look somewhat decent which it wouldn't have been considering that there were a few layers that would have made things look messy.  There's a lot of work ahead for me to do so I thought I'd start by getting a great haircut and a reminder to feel good about myself.  I'd guess at least 4" strands of coloured hair hit the floor and surrounded the chair by the time things were done.  But I can see my neck now and when I put earrings in people will actually be able to see them!!  


It has been a challenge at some hair salons to get my hair cut short.  I've been to a couple of places a couple of times and put in my request.  At the last place they flat out refused and just proceeded to cut in in a one layer type of look.  The haircut did look fine by the time they were done but it truly wasn't what I had wanted.  They said that the long hair would look better on me.  But I believe that some hair dressers think that fat people should have long hair.  But with my new shorter doo I can at least give the appearance of looking more energetic and alive.  So what a great way to start!  Hopefully the energy flow will last till at least the next time I get a hair cut.  Not sure what style it will be next time as I often like to do something just different!
