I never know what to put for these...

Hi y'all! I find myself writing here more often than in times past right now, and I have to say it's because you guys are so welcoming and open about what I have to say, even if it's not the greatest (like this time.)

So as you know, I injured my MCL last month, and have been on the bench at home basically since the 9th of December waiting to heal. Well, I'm concerned that I'm not healing up as well as I should be, because both A and I have noticed that my knee is popping at random moments despite the hinged brace supposed to be keeping it from acting funky. I have a follow up with my ortho next Wednesday, and I'm going to bring my concerns up to him and see what he says. I'm tired of being on the shelf and not being as active as I like to stay. I'd started exercising more and gotten more active last year, and I feel like because of my injury, I've backslid on that a lot more than I'd like.

I also started trying to eat healthier by making better food choices, which led to more energy (plus them finally figuring out what dosage I need of my thyroid medication!) which then led to exercising more and being more active altogether. So I'd finally felt like I was on the right track to getting my health, weight and everything where I want it to be. And then I got injured, which meant that everything fell by the wayside. I admit to eating super unhealthy for the last month and a half, and I'm so angry at myself for doing so. Just because I can't do what I'm used to doing as far as activity goes, doesn't mean that I can slack on my eating habits too. So with the new year, I'm determined to get back on track and keep on track this time, regardless of what life throws my way.

With that in mind, Hogwarts Running Club has finally opened up their first event of the year! So I've registered for the Nargle 9k, and once I'm cleared for a bit more activity (and the weather decides to cooperate) I'll be doing that. I have to say that HRC is the number one reason that I got more active and exercised more last year. Knowing that every .10 of a mile counts, both for charity, and towards my personal goals, is super inspirational. Up until I'd joined HRC last year, I couldn't fathom wanting to exercise, much less looking forward to it! Now, thanks to my amazing support system, I can't wait to get out there and get active again. I think that's a large part of why I've been so bummed about getting injured, actually. When you're super psyched about getting out there and active, being forced to sit at home and being unable to exercise the way you're used to feels like a jail sentence.

But hey, I'm trying to be more positive, even in the dark times, so I'm using this downtime to work on my Extreme Book Nerd challenge for 2018. I've already completed 18 of the 50 categories for the year, so I'm ahead of the game there. So, see, Surreal, positive things can happen despite major bummers!

Anyway, I'll catch y'all on the flip side. ;)

xoxo
