    Goals/Comments:

    Praise'm Praise'm Happy Thursday

    As many of you know Thursday's is my assessment day which consists of self-care to how I may be a healthier me. Well for the past 2.5 weeks I've been dealing with another COPD-ASTHMA flare up. I realize that this happens usually after I've been consistently going to water aerobics for 2 weeks straight or more. 😫😨😱😬😥

    Decided to do some research and low and behold the cons for swimming or water aerobics:
    Cons for swimming with COPD:

    Pool chemical induced flare-ups
    – Chlorine and other chemicals used in the maintenance of a swimming pool can trigger a flare-up of COPD‼️ symptoms. These chemicals can irritate your airways and induce a coughing or wheezing attack. Indoor pools tend to have air that is more saturated with chemical fumes so try to avoid them if at all possible.

    Overexerting yourself is easier than you might realize – The whole body is used when you swim, causing the heart and lungs are taxed fairly hard. It seems contradictory to the concept that swimming is suitable for beginners, but swimming can go from relaxing to excessive quickly. Start your exercises simple and progress over time.

    The heat can cause trouble – Unfortunately, the best—and sometimes the only—time of year to use an outdoor swimming pool is during the hottest months of summer. It can be challenging to manage the heat with lung disease. To combat the risk of overheating, drink lots of water and keep an eye on the weather report. Opt for indoor and air-conditioned exercise on the hottest days.

    So have to consider outdoor pools going forward. Yes it will make it more difficult but better to be healthy on this journey than not right? 🤔🤔

    Well, I’m glad you may have found the reason for your flare up and go from there. Nice loss! Hope you are feeling better

    Also made Loco Moco for the first time today. I'd been craving it for a while so decided to try making it, thinking it might be healthier than getting it at a food cart. Turned out pretty well, but will not be an everyday thing at about 620 calories a serving. For anyone unfamiliar, Loco Moco is a Hawaiian dish, you have a fried egg on a hamburger patty that's on top of a bed of rice, then brown gravy to top it all off. I made brown rice instead of white and cooked my egg a lot more. The idea is the egg should be runny and the liquid parts goes into the rice but I am not a fan of a runny egg
