I'm doing 38 things
I am really loving my hair right now! I can finally get it into a low puff! I just slick it back with my hands (no gel) and I use a headband to tie it back. I can also set my hair with 4 braids now so that my hair can look great every morning and I can get it ready faster in the mornings. My hair is awesome!!!

How I did it
It made me
feel better 
How I did it: I just kept practicing. I have gone through so many stresses, its just necessary to do this whenever something gets me down or I run into an obstacle. It became automatic. I just had to stop and think the positive thoughts and make the effort. I looked at how I was catastrophizing and making generalizations, and labelling myself in negative ways. Once I thought things out I felt better. Read how I did it…
It made me
happy
How I did it: I just found a place in the phone book (because I'm new in town), set up a consultation, thought about it, then scheduled the surgery. I chose the doctor with the most experience in the city. It cost a lot though but I guess you shouldn't skimp on your eyesight. So It took a few weeks between me finding a place, doing the consultation, researching, and then actually getting the surgery. The surgery only only a few minutes but the testing … Read how I did it…

I feel good
How I did it: I stopped getting my hair relaxed 9 months ago. I didn't want to chop my hair off when it was too short. So I grew it out and wore my hair in a style called the curly fro. Search for it on YouTube and you can find videos about how to do a curly fro. Then on February 19 I got fed up. The relaxed hair in the back seemed to be breaking off. I had cut off many inches of hair over the months, but I had about 4 inches of relaxed hair and 5 inch… Read how I did it…

I think I have fun watching TV and movies but I should try other things. I started playing solitaire again. I need to try more things like learning jokes again.
I started tracking my food intake on Sparkpeople.com last week. It shows you what nutrients you consume and now I know that I am getting enough iron (with a daily multivitamin), fibre, vitamin C, vitamin A, and carbohydrates. But on some days I’m not getting enough fat or protein. So I’m going to have to find ways to up my protein intake. I could do shakes but those are expensive. I might get some sort of powdered milk or something. But otherwise, I’m doing pretty well and getting lots of fruit and vegetables.
