small update & new pics...

yeah - i know...i've not been around much lately...entirely too much going on. but i did manage a small update and added a bunch of new pics that were taken last night to my profile if you want to check it out. take care, ~kym

Kym, I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your hair shorter. It picks up your face and gives you a more sophisticated look. Now I have length envy to go along with the color envy. I've been having an internal struggle with whether or not to cut my hair and you've given me new food for thought. Hugs, C.

heh - thanks. funny you should say that, as it wasn't exactly in the plans. remember my blue incident? well...after all of the bleach and coloring, my hair was a big, sticky mess (kind of like chewed gum), and it wouldn't dry...at all. so my friend, who is a stylist, stuck it all up in a ponytail on top of my head and just chopped it all off. haha after a few weeks, i was brave enough to go back to my normal red. ...and bleach shall NEVER touch this head again. haha i love you, girl. *hugs* ~k

my god your awesome. the most dramatic picture is the before and after at the end right next to each other. fantastic. i also ahve developed a shoe fetish. heels heels and more heels never could wear them before. LOVE them!

Kym, you look fabulous. While it is obvious that you have totally transformed your body, you seem to have equally transformed your mind and the way you approach life and living. Can you share a bit about this? I'm interested because I'm really trying to deal with the fact that although I've lost well over 200 lbs., my life cir****tances haven't changed at all--other than I am working out every day. Otherwise, I remain in a job that is mostly unfulfilling, and my marriage certainly hasn't improved at all with the weight loss. In fact, life still hurts - a lot. Last night, for instance, my son told me I should join the circus as the world's saggiest woman. I said, at least I wouldn't be the world's fattest lady anymore - but it hurt. He was only kidding in his 13 year old way--but it hurt. Life still hurts and so often I find myself just wanting to bust out and do something absolutely crazy -- like pack my car and head somewhere far away, a place that I've never been to--and just see what happens. I look at your photos and it seems to me that you've changed drastically, in every aspect. What can you share about this? How has your life changed - not just the weight, but the living? Thanks. M.

WOW!!!! You have one of the most incredible transformations my dear. And I LOVE the hair. Love it!!!

Hi Kym; You've made an amazing transformation!! The butterfly emerges from the chrysalis!! You look terrific. Mike
