I'll start. Mine's not that big, but it was big for me. My husband and I started going to the gym on a regular basis recently. It's been about a month or so and today I was able to do all of my arm exercises on a new weight level. It's a small victory, but a victory nonetheless.

I can type 95 words per minute and ten-key over 12,500 key strokes per minute with an error rate of less than 2%. I'm also able to remember a ridiculous amount of numbers, dates, names and dialogue and can spit them out almost verbatim.

I'm a pretty good actress and I'm one of the best people I know at writing! Shh, don't tell anyone I said something so cocky >.>

A former boss once joked he was going to have to put a fire extinguisher beside my desk, later that week they videotaped me having a conversation over Yahoo! with a colleague I had never spoken to before. I'm still not really sure what it was about, I think it was some sort of vlog company directory. It was cool, though. Data entry is my life. It's like the only thing I will shamelessly brag about.

I hate bragging and always have to becareful because of the business were in. Um, here ill brag about something my boyfriend did so that way I dont feel bad. link my boyfriend had a big part in making that for fashion week. It isn't listing the big movies he worked on but makes me really proud because I love fashion week.

Can I say that I LOVE this thread? Right now what I have to brag about is sort of small, but I'm still proud of it!
I have struggled with an eating disorder for many years, and it's usually hardest to manage when I am going through extremely stressful periods of time. Lately I have lost about 15 pounds because I've been stressed and simply not eating at all. So a few days ago I went with my sister to the grocery store and painstakingly selected veggies, fruit, meat, carbs, etc. and organized them into potential meals as I did so. For the past few days I've been eating 2-3 times a day. Not massive portions, but healthy food that nourishes me.
So, that's my big achievement. It seems stupid because eating is something that EVERYONE does, but it's actually a big problem for me. I feel happier lately, fewer migraines and just generally proud of myself

Ive been off my meds for 2 months now. For my bipolar and anxiety disorders. And Ive done it without incident. Ive come close to having a few panic attacks but Ive successfully talked myself down. Ive been working really hard to not have to live my life around meds. Ive laid off sugar, Ive been going for walks. It is painstakingly hard, but Im trying. Sometimes I dont want to get out of bed, but I do. Im not letting it consume me any more or drugging myself to death with the pills. I am very proud.
