Start of the new Year..

..Was a pretty shit one for me ! Broke my arm on New Years Eve while walking home, snapped my Humerus bone in two with a few broke shards here and there. Ended up spending 3 days in Hospital and had an operation to insert a metal plate into my arm to hold it together ! I never realised how much of a hinderence a broken bone would be. 3 months later and it's starting to feel normal again but right after it happened I could do fuck all ! Couldn't open doors, lift anything with weight to it, open bottles or jars, packets of anything, put my jacket on, tie my shoes, and even wash myself properly. The worst part for me though was not being able to get to the gym, which I was doing at least 2-3 days before I broke my arm. I was on a healthy buzz, gym, eating better and what not.

It's been 3 months and I feel terrible about my health and muscle tone. Maybe it's just my mind thinking crazy things but I feel softer in places I thought I wasn't before and it's really getting to me, feeling and noticing my body changing slightly doesn't sit well for me. I'm pretty sure I'm still the same weight I was before it happened, 11st. Its just getting most of that weight back to muscle mass is my target ( I wouldn't even look like I've "put on weight") So its gotta be my mind playing with me !

Thankfully though, I'll be getting my bike next week so I'll be cycling everywhere and my arm should be back to normal in 2 months or so, I'll have to start off light again with the weights obviously but i'm fine with that, as long as I get back to doing something I'll be happy again !

I do have a bad ass scar and an imagination to make up crazy stories as to how I got it ! :D
