Looking for accountability partners to motivate to get things done while depressed #3

I received my new henna dye from Amazon today. I only dyed my hair once so far. Henna dye takes multiple applications to look ok. I might dye my hair tonight. The sides are fading already. I ate yogurt and drank tea this morning. I ate orange chicken with rice- small portion for lunch. For dinner, I will eat vegetables and drink tea. I like green tea and black English tea. I am trying to watch what I eat. I did not exercise for two days but am eating less. I lost five pounds since I started eating less. I need to continue to eat less and move more. It is not easy. However, I am developing a double chin and my belly is jelly. So, I think it is wise to lose weight slowly. I am hoping at my next weight check-in I will be five pounds less than usual. The clinic checks my weight monthly.

Today, I washed five loads of clothes. I feel good about this. My clothes were smelly and dirty. I also vacuumed my apartment.


I took a shower and washed my hair. Tonight it will take me about six hours to dye my hair. I never follow instructions but developed my own plan to dye my hair with henna. I liked the henna organic dye in Asia. It was decent. Now, in the states the henna dye comes in powder or some liquid in really small bottles. It is cumbersome. I will see the results tomorrow.

I am doing well. I feel good. I am at my parents' house again. I don't have internet service in my apartment because I don't need it. There is a business office but I'm not interested in using public wifi.

I also want to work on sleeping less. Right now, I sleep about ten or more hours a day. I tried waking up earlier today but could not do it.


I am happy about myself these days. I think the psychosis is gone for now. I am doing more tasks and taking care of myself better than before. I am hoping the hair dye does not turn my hair a weird color but we shall see.
