I'm doing 16 things
Well, I lost ten pounds, gained five, lost seven, gained four or five pounds…all within the space of two weeks. I’m trying to exercise as much as I can. I bike 2-5 miles a day depending on my mood. I still haven’t figured out the food thing. I’ve been trying to stay away from sugar most of the time and not binge. My BMI is down a point, so I guess I’m making progress. I really only like to do exercise that’s fun. No lunges and that sort of stuff on me. I like the trampoline, biking, and walking best. I’d like to do some running, but [insert excuse of the week]. I am on the lookout for dance classes because I really love dancing and, as a bonus, it also qualifies as exercise. And I’m going to try for some kind of plan with the food situation.

How I did it: When the orthodontist put an expander on my mouth, I couldn't bite my nails. It was impossible. And now that I have braces, i STILL can't. So I stopped simply because I couldn't do it anymore. It was physically impossible and that broke the habit. Read how I did it…
How I did it: Well I live in Arizona (USA) and there are a few different ways to get your license. The way I did it was to get my learners' permit which I had to have for as many as twelve or as few as six months and get in at least 25 hours of daylight driving and I think five or ten hours of night driving. Once that has been completed, then you go in to the MVD and take your drivers test. I didn't go into the DMV until I'd had my permit for eleven mo… Read how I did it…
How I did it: I signed up for DriversEd online. I used the promo code "17MAG" to save some money. My state doesn't count it as "real" drivers ed, but that was okay because I wasn't doing it to fulfill their requirements. I did it because a lot of my friends and cousins failed and I didn't want to fail, too. After a completed the course, I read through the handbook I got from the MVD twice a day until I could answer all the practice questions in the bac… Read how I did it…
