in the last year. And since I want to start trying to have a baby in a year, I want to be healthy. I’m not obese or seriously overweight, but I have moved outside of my healthy weight guide by 7 pounds now.

Oh, and fit comfortably into my jeans again…that would be great.

How I did it: I had been thinking pixie cut, but my husband thought that was a little drastic since I had long hair past my shoulders. I looked at pictures online and found two styles that I liked (one of which my husband also liked). Called the salon and booked an appointment. Got there and asked for her input and we found a compromise that I liked and if I wanted could cut to a pixie next time. She took off 14 inches in the back and 11 in the front! … Read how I did it…
How I did it: Lots of prayer, preparation (I was a total organizing freak-show). I started planning and scheming VERY early (we originally had 2 years to plan, then a year and a half, then just a little over a year-we moved the date up twice).

and then on to grad school…..bleh. BUT! I will feel so awesome for being done with my undergrad.
I just called and made an appointment at 4 to chop it off! I’m going to donate the pony to pantene’s great lengths (locks of love makes a HUGE profit and doesn’t actually give the kids free wigs, but rather gives them wigs based on their income level).
