Years ago I gave up trying to exercise regularly. I was always depressed, unmotivated, and scared I'd trigger a flare. I gave up in normal shoes, I only wear easy slip ons. I stopped wearing make up at all, not that I was ever a daily makeup person. I cut my hair short so I just wash, comb and I'm done. My clothing is almost all easy pull on, not buttons, nothing fancy.
Then, a couple years ago, I started making changes to attempt to increase my functioning and stop weight gain. It's been a slow process.
Last week, fir the durst time, I went with my partner to walk our dog. I came home exhausted and had blisters on my feet. It was great.
I've walked several more times since then. I have more blisters. And I decided I needed walking shoes. Now I'm looking at other things I gave up on...
