Default Patience....

This morning on the exercise bike some people walked past and said wow look at that fat chick on the bike! I wanted to cry then turned and looked at them and smiled and kept peddling like a mad thing!! I didnt cry I was so amazed at myself Also this morning I replaced my diet coke with diet rite.. but I will get used to it and sneaky me replaced decaf for reg coffee and hubby didnt even notice..

Hey, I always say that real woman have curves! Good for you for smiling at them instead of yelling. Diet Rite has a lot of flavors. I haven't touched it yet on my induction, but I do have it in stock here. I like the orange and the black cherry the most. Oh, and good sneaking with the coffee. lol

Good for you! Absolutely the right reaction... especially as they must've realised you heard them. It'll have made 'em feel soooo ashamed. And if you stick to this WOE, in no time you'll be hearing them say: "Who's that cool, slim chick on the bike?"

What??!!!? Where were you? In the middle of a store? The sidewalk? Oh, a gym??!!! Well, what the.....is that the domain of skinny people only??? I am stunned. We have some very cute girls at my gym. But for the most part there are quite a few, um, curvaceous ones. Some are bigger than me, some are smaller than me. We are all there to get fit and healthy. What kind of attitude is that?? Where are they? I'll go smack 'em for ya. Argghh!!!

But good for you in showing some restraint.

Wow, that really sucks that people are so mean (esp. when you are OBVIOUSLY doing something about it). KUDOS to you for your great attitude! Don't let mean spirited people like that get you down!

G, I'll repeat what's already been said, and say good for you for not stooping to their level. It's not always easy, but brava for you for doing it! When something like that happens to me, I say a little prayer -- "Thank you Lord, that I'm not like that. How truly unhappy that person must be!"

Hey, you're already down 11 pounds, and you just joined us on the 5th. WAY TO GO!!

Good for you. There's lots of "skinny fat chicks" around, as my chiropractor always tells me. Fitness comes in all shapes and sizes. You go girl!
