Fed Up!

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!
