My story

 This blog is being use for a journal to help keep me accountable for my health.  It's starting with my acknowledgment in my bad health. I have Hidradenitis Suppurativa a chronic, inflammatory skin condition causing painful, recurring bumps, often in areas where skin rubs together. 1

I have worked for years without these problem. But starting in the summer of 2024, my knees ached and my feet starting burning. I talked to doctors, who keep telling me that I just need to change jobs. But there isn't many jobs that I can set at. In May of this year I quiet my job, due to health issues. I thought this would be great, I can cook healthier food at home, and I can get out and move my body my way. Not just standing in one spot for hours for a job. 

But in the last 4 months, I had issues, my mentally went low. I think I was grieving the life I wanted. The hiking, adventures, and just living my life. Due to my legs aching I didn't see me doing anything like that anymore. 

I hit a really bad depression, I was having problem getting up out of bed and days where I just don't want to leave the house. So my body started going downhill, I gain the weight I had lost in the last year. 

I know I needed to get to get better mentally in order to get better physically. So I started reading serval articles on getting our of depression and in most of them they talked about getting outside. So it was hardest this in the world, at least it felt like it, but I was go deep in depression that taking a shower and eating was a chore. But I started just sitting on the steps just for a while. But I did it and started doing the self-care I needed to do. 

So now I'm getting better mentally. But this blog is for me to hold me accountable. Making it where I have to post my daily (hopefully) accomplishments. 

Today is 10.3.25. But I started 10.1.25, I started a 7 day challenge, today is day 3, but couldn't walk my mile. I got a blister on my heel. LOL, -bad shoes.

Day 1 -3 of 7

 I starting this blog on the 3rd day, cause I feel like I needed a way to hold me accountable for actually doing it.  DAY 1 Started the day with walking a mile, drinking water, and using the dumbbells. After walking the mile and lifting the easy 2lbs weights, I ached but felt good.  I have a Amazfit smart watch that isn't very smart today it shows I was over 2 mile to a destination nap I can't walk to. Cause would have to walk across an airport. It shows I was 1.03 miles but google map tells me this is 2.9 miles away. DAY 2 I woke up with no pain, I was happy. I walked the mile, drank the water, and lifting the light dumbbells. DAY 3 Today I have a blister on the back of my heel, I realized it's the shoes, I know I have a better pair. Spent the day looking for them.  But I still drank the water and using the dumbbells. But couldn't really walk my mile.

Day 4 of 7

 I know I'm writing this on the 5th of October, supposed to be day 5. but it like 2 am, cause I couldn't sleep anymore. I was so tired yesterday I went to bed early and wasn't able to write my failure entry.  I still have a painful blister on the back of my foot, wearing shoe is a must when walking at the park. (hot concert sucks) so anyways. I still did something, I indoor walked and did my weights. I don't feel like it was enough, I have failed my 7 day challenge. Seven freaking days and I couldn't keep up with it. I might be blaming it on the shoes or the blister. But I still failed to walk 1 mile every day for a week.
