This was how I started, 3k steps daily then I moved to 5k daily. More or less on some days and i lost weight. Now I do 5k like 3 or more times weekly. The major hack is consistency.
Your body does not know that you stopped at 9,999 steps. There is no magical switch that turns on when you reach 10,000 steps. The important thing is to move your body regularly and avoid sitting down all day. So if you are currently doing 2,000 steps a day, continue. Don’t wait until you can do 10,000. Start by showing up every day.
Deal?

Lol. I have an igbo sis in law. During the igba nkwu, we did the cooking for our own side of the family. Our inlaws were shocked at the size of our protein. One of them even told us it was too big when they were cutting it, something that we were planning to serve 2 per person😂
Yes. Took someone there recently and I was really impressed. The Dr's were great and very thorough and it was also affordable.
The 7k consultation fee covers consultation and then test so they do the deduction when it's time to pay for tests.
Destigmatizing Mental Health
So I took a friend who had a breakdown lately to the psychiatry hospital in Yaba Lagos.
They saw a consultant, registration was 7k & the session was like 2+hrs, it was very extensive & helpful
She got diagnosed & she had an encouraging conversation with the social workers, they even made her laugh!
She was scheduled for tests, therapy sessions & an appointment with a professional. She was also given prescribed affordable drugs!
They also took her number and that of her family members + closest friends, they spoke to the family member & friend. They promised to routinely check up on her, including house visits if needed!
If you are having low mental health, I encourage you to go to the psychiatry hospital in Yaba, it is worth a try. Nigerians suffer a lot from poor access to mental health care.
I am sharing this story to help destigmatize mental health & illnesses. I will also keep sharing updates on my friend's progress!

“I married my wife from a poor family, took her to the UK in 1970, spent £11,000 every year to train her in school up to PhD. When she saw she was established, she took me to court in the UK and lied that I rap£d my daughter of 11 years so that I could be deported.”

Based on the sequel book, ‘One Golden Summer,’ which centers on the love story of Charlie Florek (Michael Bradway).
Do you ever get exhausted by food? Not the food itself, just the endless cycle of deciding what to eat, shopping for it, cooking it, and having to do it all over again every single freaking day.
Daycare calls me. That's never good.
For them.
Daycare: "your son hurt his elbow and won't move his arm. Can you come take him to a doctor's office?"
Me (ex Special Forces Medic): "A real doctor is on the way to you now. I am 6 mikes out. Alert me of status changes."
I arrive at daycare. I locate the patient. 21 month old male. Scene is not safe. I drag the patient to cover and concealment behind a seesaw, away from the other small terrorists in the AO.
I begin my assessment. Blood sweep negative for massive hemorrhage. Mental status: conscious and verbal but confused (answers "dada" when asked for blood type). One breath every 2 seconds. Bilateral rise and fall of the chest. Strong carotid pulse, strong bilat radial pulse.
Teeth and tongue intact no blood no mucus no dip or foreign objects. Eyes PERRLA, negative JVD/trach deviation, C-spine intact upon palpation.
Heart sounds strong upon auscultation. Percussion negative for hemo-T. Abdominal quads normal upon palpation. Pelvis negative for book sign.
Arms and legs negative for crepitus. However, Patient indicates discomfort in right arm upon palpation and supination/flexion of the elbow.
Nursemaid's elbow.
I begin interventions. Supination/flexion technique complete at 1215. Palpable clunk on successful reduction. I write the time on his chest in Sharpie. I tape a popsicle to his hand and tell the patient to suck but do not bite/chew. I write "1 x popsicle (10g sugar)" on his chest in Sharpie.
I reassess the patient after performing interventions then package the patient for handoff to daycare/higher level of care. I yell at daycare over the Blackhawk in my head: "21 month old male!!! Nursemaids elbow!!! Treated with supination/flexion technique at 1215!!! Patient has 1 x popsicle onboard!!"
Daycare: "sir please leave."
Me: "you should have called my wife."
