Gymnast Gabby Douglas is revealing that she almost quit her sport to just get a job a at Chick-fil-A.

According to the New York Daily News, when she was 15, she texted her mother and said gymnastics just wasn't her passion anymore.

But thanks to a conversation with her older brother, she decided to keep training.

And of course, that paid off for the gold medalist.

She won gold last summer in the individual all-around competition and won another gold with Team USA.
