November 18th
I held the razor in my hand, staring intently into the mirror in front of me. Holding it up, I began shaving the large beard that basically covered the lower half of my face.
Bye, bye beard you will not be missed. All you did is collect crumbs and remind me how awful I have become, so adios.
Once that was done, I watched a quick tutorial on the internet and decided to cut my own hair. I'm too cheap to just go get a haircut, plus doing it myself would be more time efficient. Gripping the scissors, I began cutting off chunks of hair, being extremely cautious. One wrong move and I could potentially end up looking worse than before.
When my hair was successfully cut to the way I like and my beard was cleanly shaved, I could finally look in the mirror without feeling disgusted at my reflection.
The last activity I had to do on my transformation journey was make a brief phone call to my local gym. The call took about ten minutes, and the sign up process for a membership was extremely simple, it's time to lose all the weight I've gained! Cutting my hair, fixing my beard, and getting a gym membership symbolizes letting you go and moving on in some strange way; I feel like I re-obtained all the energy I had lost from losing you, I feel empowered for once.
