A year ago today I got fed up. Totally and completely fed up. If you might recall, I was still recovering from mono at this time last year and was absolutely miserable. I felt house bound and purposeless. I had little motivation to do anything and yet I could not stand doing nothing.
So, on March 15, 2012 I said enough was enough. Tired or not tired. Sick or not sick. Mono or no mono. I was NOT sitting around anymore. I needed to do something. I needed to go somewhere. I needed to have some sort of interaction with the world that extended beyond my house and immediate family.
Over the previous 6 months I had managed to gain back almost all of the weight I had actually lost in law school. Between studying for the bar, looking for a job, moving, and then getting sick, the weight just kept creeping. When I looked in the mirror, I hated what I saw and I knew it was time to do something about it.
So, on this day one year ago, I walking into my gym, used my free gym pass and signed up for a membership. I was fed up, and that was great motivation to do something ... to change something.
Being fed up promoted gumption!
