I'm no expert, but maybe you have to update the Java path being used by your profile. Click edit profile in the launcher, then change the path next to "Executable:" in the Java settings at the bottom.

I just updated Java and had the exact same problem as you. So I changed the folder in the path from "jre6" (on yours it's jre7) to "jre1.8.3.0_31," which apparently, is the new name where everything is located, and it fixed it.
