I’ve got a mild foot deformity (I don’t like saying deformity because it doesn’t look that bad. My toes are just a little bent and wonky)
Though it doesn’t look too bad, it’s still kinda embarrassing to wear sandals, especially when people comment on it. It also causes me pain when I stand up for too long, and I have very high arches, which contributes to the problem and causes me back pain. I’m really young now, so I’m worried that my problems will worsen as I get older.

How I did it: I haven't eaten meat for nine years. My parents were vegetarians, so that made it easier. I just wasn't around meat, so I didn't really want it much. I used to crave it, but now I'd rather not eat it cause it kinda grosses me out. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I wanted to learn guitar for a while to accompany the songs I wrote, but it took me a while, mainly because I didn't see myself as the type of person who'd play guitar, which was ridiculous. Anyone who wants to learn an instrument can do it. There's no specific type of person.Still, it kinda got me down when people laughed at me for it and said things like "HA! Picture HER with a guitar!"Honestly, that was probably the hardest part. I can… Read how I did it…
How I did it: Well, I wrote my first song when I was 12, but I've been trying since I was little without even knowing. It was just something that came to me.The most important thing is not to let anyone discourage you or tell you you're not the right type of person to write songs. I'm not your typical beautiful songstress, that's for sure. I'm awkward, nervous, clumsy and unpopular. I get dubious looks when seen carrying my guitar case around (Think Si… Read how I did it…

I’ve already lost 15 pounds and am noticing a huuuuge difference in the way I’m looked at, and I feel great. I’d like to lose about 15 more so I can be at an ideal weight and look and feel my best.
My eyelashes are growing back slowly, but I still have virtually no eyebrows. I’m mostly cured, but I still have relapses when I’m feeling anxious :(
