The selfie project

So, I’ve decided to do a selfie project on Instagram. Yes, I know, I know. I’m almost 40 years old. Too old for that. It’s self-centered. Blah blah. But I’m going to do it anyway and I assure you, it’s not all about being vain.

I have been following a couple of people on Instagram recently who have done selfie projects — and the results are incredible. People’s appearance changes from day to day — from mood to mood.

I looked back through my own Instagram account — and was stunned. Just a few years ago I weighed over 70 pounds more than I do now. The difference in my appearance is incredible.

For me, this project is all about transformation — not only from day to day but over time. This project will be a diary of sorts. How I’m feeling, what’s going on that day and the like.

And since I’m growing my hair out (in a pre-40 defiance), it’s a good time to do a selfie project.

My plan: one selfie a day — more if I prefer, but I don’t want to clutter Instagram. And I’m keeping it strictly to Instagram. If you should be curious, I’m autumnpath. Give me a follow and I’ll follow you back.
