I was given a certain amount of time after three months of hell. I was given ten days to recover and spend time with my family before I return to the service of the United State Marine Corps.
I spent three months in one of the most difficult periods of my life. Three months of being verbally abused, being pushed farther than I ever thought possible and even getting dozens of bruises both questionable and normal. I survived... Who knew that a man two years ago that was over 300 pounds could now be a united state marine.
Now I'm am given ten days to return to Civilian life and recover from all the hell I went through even the crucible. (That was a trip.) I got home and my family could tell that my mind wasn't there. They could tell that all the things I went through still weighed heavy on my mind. It wasn't until I was home for the third night that I actually had a full nights rest.
Thing is I ate a lot! I ate a lot of junk food that made me gain weight so fast and so quick. It's not a bad thing since I came out of boot camp being 20 pounds under my max weight limit. Just I had a strange and overall happy ten days of leave.
