Renaming this darn thing

So this blog was originally named 6 weeks.. Based on the 6 week paleo challenge that was going on at the crossfit gym that I was at.. So seeing as A. I'm not going to that gym anymore for reasons I'll explain shortly and B. I'm not doing a "diet" so to speak and C. those 6 weeks are clearly over. So as to why I'm not going to my crossfit gym anymore.. I did a competition in late October and pulled a muscle in my back, or pinched a nerve or something.. Not sure what it was but I've had 3 toes that went numb the next day and pretty much have been that way since then. I've gone to a doctor who rushed me in and out of her office administering a steroid shot on her way out and prescribing a slew of muscle relaxers and steriod pills.. I have enough rage without the roids. And I don't like taking pain medicine. Period. So since I've seen to different chiropractors and have lived with this hellish back pain since then. So it goes without saying that I have not been working out. Well I've still always struggled with weight loss and constantly battle with my self image. So again.. I'm trying to change my eating habits. So we went grocery shopping this weekend and got some really fresh foods, lean meats lots of veggies and fruits. You know the basics. I ran for about 30 min on Monday. And didnt workout at all yesterday. So today some cardio and strength training is in order. I've been on Pinterest a lot over the last few weeks and have always stuck to the DIY & Crafts section but I happen to catch the Fitness section last week and have been on it ever since. I feel like I've abandoned my DIY & Crafts though. *Tear* Any who.. There are so many inspirational Before & Afters and just pictures of these amazing bodies that I can't help but wish I could wake up with. But I'm looking to put in the work. Slow and steady wins the long term race here. No one got those bodies just by waking up one day. I know it takes extremly hard work and dedication. And I am doing my best. It's really sad how depressing this can be but I can't blame anyone but myself for my eating habits and lack of commitment. So I'm just taking it one day at a time and remembering all the girls that I've seen that did it. And did it the right way.
