Four years and 225 days in a row have passed since I broke my smoking habit.
Because of the severe pain in my low back, I've been able to do push-ups or
standing on one foot.
The pain is too severe.....I sometimes feel the pain while riding a bike
on my way to the workplace and sometimes ever while sitting on the toilet,
especially when wiping toilet paper....This is not a joke.
Anyway, I may have to see a doctor if the pain further worsens.

I was able to keep no-smoking for four years and 224 days in a row.
I've stopped doing push-ups because of the pain in my low back.
It's a severely pain....I really regret that I hadn't done walking for eight
days and physical exercises to strengthen waist muscle such as squat.
I've been really made to realize that I'm not young and I have to prepare for
my low back pain every day.
Anyway, the pain is really sharp sometimes.....
I hope it'll have gone as soon as possible.

It has been four years and 223 days in a row since I kicked smoking.
I was able to keep 26-time push-ups for the nineteenth successive day and
over 19-time push-ups for the fifty-eighth straight day.
Very unluckily, I got a low back pain yesterday for the first time in a
long time, so I've decided to stop doing any physical exercises for some time.
I think the cause of the pain may be the lack of walking for the past over one week.
Anyway, I really have to renew my determination to do walking after the pain.

Four years and 222 days in a row have passed since I stopped smoking.
I was able to keep over 19-time push-ups for the fifty-seventh consecutive day
including the most recent eighteen days of 26 times.
After the rain by the typhoon #11, it's quite cloudy in Nagoya and humid.
I noticed cicadas began buzzing a few days ago, and now their droning is getting
louder and louder.
This year's period of shrilling of cicadas has just begun, which indicates the
end of the rain season and the beginning of the scorching heat.

I was able to keep no-smoking for four years and 221 days in a row.
I managed to keep 26-time push-ups for the seventeenth successive day and over

It's been raining more heavily than yesterday and actually it's so windy that
I felt it a little hard to ride a bike on my way to the workplace.
The typhoon #11 is now going up through the Chugoku region toward the Sea of Japan.
I really hope it will have gone very soon.
Well, after the typhoon, the declaration of the end of the rainy season may be made.
