I was hoping to stay active even though I was parenting my daughter on my own. So, I would drop her off at school and hit the gym next to her school where I would try to squeeze in cardio and weights before going to work. I would start with the treadmill and then go to the weight room where there was always a man who had a military crew cut and huge muscles. He was quite loud and wondered aloud why I spent such a short amount of time in the gym. Instead of attempting to explain, I left for work.
