A new 'do

A few weeks ago I decided I needed a new "do." It had been over a year since I had had my last haircut. Needless to say, I was definintely overdue for a trim.

I wish I had taken a before picture, but I did not. Imagine hair about 2 inches below the shoulders that was frizzball central. It was curly and not cooperating.

So, here is the after picture.


Ok, I'm just kidding. This was a trial I did a couple weeks ago on a Saturday to see what the short hair would look like curly. A little wild, eh?

Here is the real hairdo.


Please don't look at the nose, I know it is huge!

My hair in this style takes a bit more time as I have to straighten my hair everyday since it is naturally curly. But, regardless of the time, I love it.

So, what do you think?

Perty by Thirty -- Week 69

Well, I accomplished the goal I had set for myself -- to hit 100 pounds again by this week.

I did it! I lost exactly 2.4 pounds to bring my total back to 100 pounds.

I'm hoping and am going to strive to not fall under that 100 pounds again. Although, I have some temptations and challenges coming up in the next week or so, but I'm determined to stay in the triple digits this time!

My next goal -- to be at 105 pounds and finally earn another 5 pound star at my Weight Watcher meeting by Memorial Day, May 31st. There will not be my regular meeting that day, but I will weigh sometime that week and get my 5 pound star one way or another!
