Five years and 174 days in a row have passed since I gave up smoking.
I have not done push-ups for the fourth due to the pain in my big toe.

Today I've just been to a doctor and took a blood test.
The test results will be shown on Friday and the doctor says that the
pain is highly likely to come from gout attack.
If my uric acid level is high, I have no choice but to take medicine
to lower the level of uric acid.
Anyway, I really hope I can be free from gout, if possible.

I have succeeded in preventing myself from smoking for five years and 172 days in a row.
I have not done push-ups for the second consecutive day due to the gout
attack of pain on my base of big toe.
I know I have to see a doctor as soon as possible, but I have no choice
but to go to a clinic on Tuesday because of my work schedule.
Anyway, honestly, I feel I don't have any dreams or hopes now.
I may have to stop being so negative......

I was able to keep no-smoking for five years and 171 days in a row.
I didn't do push-ups yesterday and don't do them today due to the sever pain
in my base of big toe, which I'm sure to be gout.

Now I'm so depressed because I have had to give up doing a long and middle
range walking which was scheduled for May 3rd and May 27th.
The repeated pains have made me feel so disappointed, but I have to have hope.
After the pain has completely gone, I'm sure I can do a middle-distance walking
even though I have given up doing a long-distance walking including a four-hour walking.
Anyway, I have to wait for this pain to go away.

It has been five years and 170 days in a row since I quit smoking.
I was able to resume push-ups from 20 times yesterday, but actually I've
decided to stop doing any physical exercises because I got a severe pain
on the back of the base of big toe like a contraction pain.
This pain after the pain on the right knee has made me feel really disappointed.
...so, I don't feel like writing English any more.

Five years and 169 days in a row have passed since I broke my bad habit of smoking.
I didn't do push-ups yesterday since I felt I needed a break once in a while
and I hope to resume them as soon as possible.

It's cloudy and sometimes sunny in Nagoya today.
The Ise-Shima G7 summit has begun in neighboring Mie prefecture and I really
hope there will be no accidents or incidents including terrorist attacks.
I've decided to stay away from Nagoya Station today just in case in fear of soft targets.
And, tomorrow will be a historic day when an incumbent US pesident visits
the epicenter city of Hiroshima.
