Well now, it's been a year or so

since my hip surgery
About to have my hip replacement at a hospital in Athens last year. I can't
even straighten my left leg. photo credit: @twiceuponatime
In addition, I had been quite inactive
for several years before that due to the hip condition.
Still, before taking the drastic step of a hip replacement,
and after several years of hoping the pain would go away, LOL,
I gave stem cell therapy a try.
But I found it gave only a little,
and only temporary, relief.

So, as you could well imagine,
it has been a very long time since I have had
any real exercise at all!
And it shows!

That's all fine and dandy, @onceuponatime,
But from whence do you propose to get the motivation
to come back to fitness from such a deplorable state?
After all, it ain't easy!
photo credits: pixabay.com
Well, being of a rather devious character,
(sometimes I do come under the nefarious influence
of my demented alter-ego, @twiceuponatime)
I could easily pretend that my motivation
is due to my involvement in cryptos
(bitcoin, steem, eos, bitshares and such).
That is,
I could plausibly claim to be getting in shape
for the coming wars between
centralization and decentralization!

But @twiceuponatime mocked me mercilessly:
"Who's going to believe that, you fool?"
"Certainly not her:"

"Furthermore," @twiceuponatime hissed:
"everyone knows crypto is for nerds,
and that you spend 12, 14, 18 or more
hours a day behind a computer screen!"
photo credits: pixabay.com
So how did I overcome @twiceuponatime's bullying?
To come up with the motivation to get back in shape?
I do wish it was something noble
that I could say was the key
Unfortunately,
it was just VANITY that got the best of me :-)
After all, who wants
to look down and, for the rest of his life,
see only his stomach, never his shoes?
"so that's the real reason for your 'Don't forget to look up' post, you hypocrite!"
said @twiceuponatime
Don't forget to look up!

But dude, who cares? Why do we care about this shit at all? lol! You look amazing to me.
Which brings me to the last thing I need to say- it was quite magical, once upon a time like, to find that you followed me yesterday- but while you and I have music in common (we've had some pearl jam back and forths over the past 18 months lol) I am not my brother, who wrote that amazing song. I write novels, and I screw around with blogging and photography, that's what I do. I think it's really cool (magical) that you followed me, but I don't care if you never vote on my posts. I'm serious about that. I don't care. I am just me. I've learned lessons from the whales that have been here since the beginning-- make another account. lol. Much easier to find the real people, the down to earth, not trying to get something from you people- when you're not a big fish.

First of all really sad to hear about your hip replacement issue due to which you suffered lot. I am happy to see that you got yourself fine soon after this issue, Great!
Let me share with you my own story, back in 2015 after getting distinction from the University during my graduation. I seriously fall ill and doctors diagnosed me with GN( A chronic disease of the kidney). After changing my life style and taking steroidal medicines I overcame the issue last week. Means to say I bore the pain of GN for almost three years of my life. The way you decided to make yourself healthy, you actually gave me motivation and inspired me to bounce back strongly.
Will power and determination are the key traits to achieve anything in the world, I am convinced that God has given you these two quality traits @onceuponatime your smiling face is saying the whole story <3
Thank you so much for this awesome post One of the best souls I met on the platform :)

Crypto wil always be here waiting for you, but your health comes first . Motivate yourself by his words , prove him wrong that you CAN kick ass in the gym .
Wishing you a speedy recovery and healthy life

If you do everything you should do, and do not do anything you should not do, you will, according to the best available statistics, live exactly eighteen hours longer than you would otherwise. LOL

To speak the truth, I am not the best person to talk about gym.
I have a problem with my knee (not in very bad condition but it reminds me that it is in my life whenever I try to workout).
So, speaking personaly I imagine that your brother wanted to sit you up, in order not to sit down and leave yourself. Those brothers are in our lives for good times and for bad too.
BUT... Crypto is not only a reason to sit in the chair and spend time, hours from your life just watching a monitor. Crypto is technicaly a world. A digital world were you can work and earn money, spend them like you spend going out, drinking alcohol, watching "beauties" and many other things. You can play and of course you can learn many things from there.
I do not have the experience in cryptotrading, but I have some experience and knowledge in cryptomining, and this is something from the nothing.
So, dear twice it is great for once to know that he has someone who trigers him not to leave everything and sit under excuses.
And, dear once, I am honored because I had the oportunity to meet you, and of course learn the story of your life. It is good to understand others but best to understand our selves first. And of course not to give up in bad situations.
Heads up and stay calm!
oh... not to forget OUZO... it gives life in our spirit!
Trust me, I am Greek ;)
Peace my friend.

I really like the photo that you hold the t-shirt! However, the slogan: "DONT DREAM, WORK HARD", I would say:
Work hard and keep on dreaming! 😉

What really happened to your hip. Was it due to an accident or something else?
Now you have recovered wholly or the temporary relief is just in place?
Looking up will surely do some business, like we can get motivation, we have to reach to the skies.
