In November of last year, I joined a gym. This is nothing special, except when I joined this gym, they told me after I completed 20 workouts I would receive a $15 credit to their store, including drinks, apparel, etc. The kicker was that you had to complete the workouts in 2 months, which equated to 2 workouts a week. I was all…”no problem, I got this in the bag.”

I am proud and embarrassed to say that after three and a half  months, okay really almost 4, I finally completed my 20 workouts! Yea…I’m aware of how sad it is. So sad in fact that the manager gave me 2 extensions to earn my credit! I would go into the gym and the front desk would greet me and say “Oh we haven’t seen you in a while Kelly,” and I would respond with whatever excuse I had that week- which included a knee injury skiing (that lasted almost a month), hectic schedule that prevented me from coming, the holidays (holidays always work right?) and a running list of any other excuses I could come up with.

It’s all good now because I got my credit. And yesterday morning I purchased my first ever Muscle Milk (light) with that credit. I still have $12.50 to spare because you see…after three and a half months, really 4, it’s in the bag.
