2020 year in review

Hi there and welcome back. How are you? I hope that you are well. Today I’m going to talk about my 2020 in review; Now 2020, was a tough year for everyone with Covid-19.

I started off the year being positive about 2020. The idea of looking for work, doing a comedy event for Cancers Research, starting drawing with my Apple Pencil and training for a 10K. Then, Covid-19 and my eczema flared up and stopped all of that.

My eczema

I have eczema for the majority of my life. Every now and again, I get flare-ups. It can be quite annoying because when I think that I’m ok, something always stops me. I started taking daily baths early on in the year, mixing up from apple cider vinegar to vitamin e bath oil.

Working

I’m still looking for part-time work. Either contract work, part-time work or self-employed work. I do have some work coming in later on the year from a friend that I took an SEO course a couple of years ago.

My running

Only recently, I’ve started going back on the treadmill redoing the couch to 5K app. Because of lockdown, I have not been out on my daily walks at all.

My exercises

I’ve changed up how I lift my weights, from my basic four exercises to the Pail Bradley workout to something that I found on Pinterest. I’ve stopped doing my daily plank challenge. I’m still going on the treadmill almost everyday. and I’m still using my ab swing and ab-belt but I alternate what day that I use each.

My weight

I started the year weighing in at 64kg, I weighed in at the end of the year at 64kg. Which means no movement in weight whatsoever. My diet has been laxed over covid-19 from me having pancakes for breakfast. I’ve gone back to having porridge for breakfast with gluten-free rice puffs, blueberry jam, and blueberries in it. Overall my fitness has gone down since covid-19, I would sit down after making breakfast and sit there for hours. Even though my watch tells me to stand. Bhanga Blaze isn’t on every week due to Amarjit injuring her back before Christmas.

That’s it for now. Once again, I just want to thank a few people. Firstly, I would like to thank my mum, dad, sister and my Naughty Mamaji, for being by my side, throughout everything. I would like to thank everyone from BTS for sharing this with the community. I would like to thank Kanika, Shirley, and everyone at Carers Trust for giving me the confidence to share my story and I would like to thank Joe for motivating me to get back on the horse. And I would like to thank everyone at the hospital, my family and friends, and everyone who I’ve met on this journey.

Next time, I’m going to be talking about my first experience of acupuncture. Please feel free to leave a comment and as always, if you buy something from Amazon, through the blog, or click on an advert, 100% of the money that I get goes to charity.

Thanks and take care.
