I'm putting this video up not to gain sympathy but to demonstrate what people with lupus and fibromyalgia experience during a flare up. Please no disrespectful comments. I know I'm fat and I know this may seem like a whinge, but it truly isn't. People will only understand if they can see it with their own eyes. It's a constant battle. Some days you win, some days you lose. I often hate myself and struggle but I still hold down a full time job running a national centre, on good days I exercise for a minimum 30 minutes often for hours, and I take care of a household and hobby farm.
I'm trying and I still think I can beat this. My challenge is for the end of the year to post a different video. One in which I'm pain free, smiling and a lot thinner. One in which I'm happy.
