Five weeks ago I fell during work, outcome: a concussion. My head still hurts and I am not able to fully commit to my work-outs. They say you are going to appreciate the things you have, once you lost them. Lying down in bed has always been one of my favorite hobbies; but not if it is forced on me. I am craving muscle ache, sweat that is not the result of the heat, post work-out selfies and protein shakes.
Last week I restarted my training schedule, the doctor says I have to build up with my exercises and as simple as that I am right where I was a year ago when I began my fit journey. Nonetheless, I keep my head up and stay motivated. Because secretly there are also reasons to love my injury. If I can’t train properly I don’t have to follow my food schedules so strict, this is one of the things I tell myself. One of the things that make me the worst fitgirl ever.
I am eating always. My newest food schedule involves cutting carbohydrates. Not that hard. Staying away from sugar, snacks, fast food is the hardest part. A perfect example occurred yesterday. After my check-up, I bought a few protein bars. They frequently stop my cravings, especially during long work nights as a bartender. Five minutes later I have a plate with a cheesecake my hands from my second work, that I shortly visited. Which one should I choose? I know nutrition is an important part of getting fit. Work-outs only aren’t enough. But who in their right mind says no to cheesecake?
