Odd Few Days

As I mentioned in my last post one of the women from my running group commented about all the weight I have lost. She's started some kinda weird compliment chain.

Wednesday
It started with her wed afternoon, then that night my trainer announced to the entire spin class how many calories I had burnt. That one was to congratulate me & motivate the rest of the class. Look what the overweight chick can do. Despite the weight I've lost I'm still considered overweight but getting closer to my goal weight everyday.

Thursday
I had just finished my run when one of the other trainers commented on 'slim jim' as I was walking down the stairs. I was the only other person there so it had to me aimed at me. He & I then chatted for a few minutes when one of the other trainers came up to us and commented saying she had seen me upstairs earlier & remembered me from the conversation she & my old trainer had with me about my inability to lose weight. Turns out the problem wasn't entirely me after all. That was their prognosis. There was something wrong with me.

Saturday
I had one of the other instructors make several comments throughout the class about me & the big week I was having. After class he & I were talking and he told me I was an inspiration to him. Later that night a friend and I were out to dinner and a couple of times through out the night he commented on all the weight I had lost.

Sunday
At running group on Sunday the husband of the woman who started the chain completed it when he commented on just how far I had come. There was no way he would have known that unless his wife told him because she is the only one who saw the pictures. I have only been going since Feb when I wasn't nearly as big as I was last year.

Like I said it's been weird. I'm not liking all of this sudden attention. I've never liked being the centre of attention. I'm much happier being in the background. Hopefully, it's just a temporary thing and people will go back to normal quickly.
