I have a hair cut appointment today. I love getting my hair cut. I love my stylist. And I love the personal attention. HOWEVER - I just loathe the CAPE!!! At my salon they sit you in front of a full length mirror, so it's not just the head and shoulders I have to see. It's the WHOLE thing!!! Seriously, when they drape that cape over me I just see a big shapeless blob with a small head and I am sure that I look like Jabba the Hut. It's the worst feeling. And then I also hate the reveal - when they pull the cape off at the end and I see myself and my rolls in all their glory sitting in that chair. I try so hard just to focus on the hair, but it's impossible.
I'm determined to change that feeling. While I know that the cape doesn't really look good on anyone, I'm determined to feel better about myself by sticking to this healthy eating/workout plan. I have lost about 7 pounds this month, but I have a long way to go. Long term Goal is still about 80 lbs away. But my short term goal is to lose another 10 before my next hair appointment - about 5 weeks. That would be amazing for me and something I can really feel good about.
Weird how its odd things like this that really get to you.
