before and almost after pics

Yesterday I chopped my hair off and I freaking love it!  I bet I cut at least 9" off the back!  I was inspired earlier this year when Jen Aniston stepped out with her new do and I immediately wanted to cut my hair.  There was only one thing holding me back, I seriously thought it would make my face look fat.  The last time I had my hair short I was about 280 pounds and even though I thought I looked at the time, what a horrible choice and why did the stylist not tell me it would add 40 pounds of face fat that I didn't need!  I talked to my besties and made me feel much better about my decision so I went for it and this is what a 100 pound weight difference will make...

the middle picture is what my hair looked like before I cut it off!

Crazy huh?!!  Sometimes I forget how far I have come because it has been a slow process but seeing pictures like this (yes I have a love of self portrait webcam pics when I am bored out of my mind) it makes me feel about a 1000x more confident.

I also was flipping through old photos of me and that is when I noticed a big difference again!!

The last few days I have needed some major motivation.  I think I found it.
