Love the pink! I tried green hair, it looks awful on me.

If we're doing awkward teen years, I was 14, in a youth traditional mexican orchestra, and as grim as one can be while wearing a bright frilly yellow monstrosity (I'm looking at the camera)

Dude, amazing work! You're looking good. If we're doing the whole transformation thing in here, I may as well post mine. Here is me in 2008. I was just finishing my undergrad and I was fat, severely depressed, in a bad relationship (which ended up as a bad marriage) and all-around hosed. If I had to guess I was around 295-300lbs there.



Fast forward to 2016. I've since lost a bunch of weight, got a bunch of therapy, lifted a weight, ended my lovely marriage and feel pretty great. As of this morning I was down to 194lbs (I'm 5'11" for reference).





I still have around 15lbs to lose but I'm almost there!

You're in prague after singapore two days ago? That part I believe, what I don't get is your perfect skin and how you don't look jetlagged at all.

my tag should read Bitch,cute. You do look forty, but forty trying to look 30. Embrace yourself and get rid of the kookiness and enjoy how you look behind the fear of age. You are pretty and don't need the...stuff. There is absolutely nothing wrong with being forty. Unless you are trying too hard not to be. Okay, ready for the yelling.

eh, that's just kinda my style. I never stopped dressing the way I always have. I never thought, hey, I'm 38, so I shouldn't put this barrette in my hair. I agree there's nothing wrong with being 40 or looking 40, but it's also pretty normal to be slightly bummed for a minute upon turning 40. I'm not all broken up about it or trying to look or act younger than I am or anything.

Kind of a weird comment, really.


Anyhow, thanks everyone else. I'm less bummed.

Thanks, and bringing up the makeup made me think of this public service announcement I'd like to make:

DO NOT OVER-PLUCK YOUR EYEBROWS

In the 90's very thin eyebrows were in style and I plucked my poo poo into pencil thin lines for a few years. What I didn't know is that it's super easy to damage the follicle so that the hairs simply never grow back. So now I'm stuck with drawing them on and filling them in for, like, ever so I don't look weird. It's annoying.
