I've been sick since Tuesday. It's kept me out of the gym for three days (counting today), and I cannot wait to get back.
You would NEVER, ever hear the old me saying that. I have always been a sedentary person, even as a child. More importantly, I used to embrace excuses. Early in 8th grade, I had an isolated case of blacking out after a gym class, and I used it as an excuse to sit out for gym for the REST OF THE YEAR. During high school, my dad made me go to the gym with him every day. I didn't hate the exercise while I was actually in the gym, but if I had even the tiniest excuse to not go, I would seize it with both hands and stay home.
But today, I am genuinely eager to get back to my workout routine. I can't even describe how huge a change this is for someone like me, but I'm sure some of you can relate. I have changed not just on the outside, but on the inside, too. THIS is a lifestyle change. This is a transformation.
