Obviously I took it out on my blog when I got hurt. I was in step class 5 weeks ago and fell off of the step and hurt myself badly. Like sprained ligament, MRI, ankle brace type of bad. THEN to make things worse, I re injured myself one week later. I have not been able to run, and the way that I dealt with this is by avoiding my workouts, my eating and generally falling out of sync. I have paid dearly. I have not felt like myself. Although I have lost weight. Its not even about that though; in getting hurt I feel like I had lost my identity. I was becoming who I wanted to be, I was a fixture in the gym, I longed to workout and due to one injury I let it get the best of me and I dropped out. So in the famous words of this family I need to suck it the hell up and get back to work. And that is just what I'll do. Take that broke stupid ankle.
Here's the next thing. I haven't been honest in my bloggity blog. I haven't been writing to make myself happy, I was journaling the most boring aspects of my life and keeping it uncharatersitic to me. So from here on the deets will be 100% Christina-ized. the words will surely be made up concauctions, get ready because I will write as I talk and I'm sure I'll have all sorts of grammar erroz and what nots. I may even cuss, if we are lucky. *ACK* This is my journey and I want it to be reflective as to who I am. I will continue to post food updates, but mostly of new foods/recipes that I fall in love with.
WHEW! I feel better. I read my blog a few times while on hiatus and I was bored.to.tears.
To put things into perspective a dear friend told me that when you play hard you hurt hard and asked me how many times I hurt myself just sitting on the couch.What a great way to think about things! Life is meant to feel, even if that means that you have to sit in the sideline due to injury every once in a while.
Today in an attempt to slow the growth of my butt to the couch, I did the Wii Fit. I strapped on my trusty HR monitor and hula'd like a champ. I was trying out my ankle, with a low impact cardio activity. I really, really want to hit the weights, I know Im only a couple of reps away from showing the boys how its really done, like this um, chick?
oh yeah.
