excuses, excuses...



Alright, so I'm kind of the worst at keeping a blog. I can think up plenty of excuses: actually having work to do at work, taking this crazy beast to the dog park so she doesn't chew everything in the house...



Mainly, my blog-fail was mainly due to the fact that I dislocated my elbow shortly after my paleo-love-fest post. And when I say dislocated, I mean I was crushed and my arm bones were nowhere near each other. It was pretty gruesome:


 You can imagine that I couldn't do much of anything for a while. Not even run... one of my PT's feared that I would fall (I might be a bit of a hot mess, but seriously??) So with the dislocated elbow and severe bruising went my fitness and healthy eating. The "ow-bow" was a fairly legitimate excuse for not exercising, eating right, or writing, but not 2 months' worth...


I realized just how easy it was to use a convenient excuse to not eat clean or work out - it was an all-or-nothing mentality... can't work out, why bother to eat paleo? Sure, it was fun for a while... I had tons of time to catch up on TV shows and take my dog to the park and clean my bathroom! But, my clothes started looking less and less flattering and I was tired all the time for no reason and I realized how much of a toll my lazy lifestyle had taken.

So, with my recent medical clearance (yay!), the excitement of rugby 7s this summer, my quasi-ability to do crossfit workouts, and crossfit regionals in full swing (Foucher all the way!), my new motto is that of Wedding Crashers and Biggest Loser season 431: No Excuses!

...stay tuned for more frequent blogposts...
