Jess Impiazzi Instagram – When I was first diagnosed with lupus, forgetting the incredible chronic pain and all the other things that come with it, the hard part was accepting that life was not going to be the same. From someone that was so active being told I wouldn’t be able to do half the stuff I used to do was heartbreaking! Exercise was my mental heath tool, my happy place and I always felt so strong!
I won’t bang on about it but I can’t believe how far I’ve come!
It takes a lot of patience and lifestyle changes and medication but it can get easier!! Take this from someone who was stuck on steroids for 8 months when it was only supposed to be 3 max!
Also now I’m enjoying my runs and the views and not pushing myself for times and PB’s, I know I’ll never get those again, but who cares I don’t need them! But what I do need is the feeling of just moving, being in nature and getting out there, even if I have to walk some of it!
