I have Fibromyalgia and when I stretch before bed, I wake up in less pain. I’ve been stretching for a very short period of time ALMOST every night and I’m hoping to work my way up to a yoga routine eventually.

How I did it
It made me
Happy and healthy! 
How I did it: I became a vegetarian and started eating healthier. I switched from eating meat, fast food, and other junk food to whole grains, vegetables, fake meat, fruit, beans, etc. I used to be sick 24/7 and now I'm never sick. I DID NOT WORK OUT. I lost the weight solely because of the change in my diet. Read how I did it…

I am now committed to volunteering for at least 6 months at a local animal shelter. Training begins at the end of March. :)
Since middle school, I’ve volunteered in a variety of places. At spaghetti suppers, ice cream socials, an animal shelter, I’ve sold trees for the Lion’s Club, helped coordinate a pet supply drive, a food drive, and a warm clothing drive. The warm clothing drive was the most amazing experience of my life. We (a class of 6 people) were able to get many businesses and organizations across the state involved and collect over 2,800 items of warm clothing!
No matter how small or large the project you are involved with is, you are making a huge difference.
Most people don’t volunteer because they have never been asked, so I am asking you all to go find somewhere to volunteer and make a difference!

I’m coloring with crayons every night using my left hand and it’s hard, but it’s fun to go back to the joys of childhood, and I’m learning pretty fast. :)
I’m also using the mouse with my left hand.
I’m going to start brushing my teeth with my left hand tonight.
Update:
The first time I tried coloring with my left hand, my grip was weak, I couldn’t put much pressure on the crayon, my control wasn’t that good, and my hand got tired pretty fast. I’ve been coloring for ~5 days now and my grip is pretty good, my control/pressure is much better, and my hand doesn’t get tired as fast.
The other night I grabbed my toothbrush with my left hand and started brushing without even realizing it!
