    • Proving people wrong
    • Catching someone laugh at my joke when they know if I see, it'll just encourage me
    • When someone cuts me off and I follow them so closely and for so long they actually pull over

    Two things...my 5 year old son willingly eats (and actually loves) whole grain breads even with big fat seeds on them. And the other, that people always tell me how well he behaves (even though I think he can be a total pain sometimes) :tongue:

    This morning, running by a woman getting out of her car : grossly overweight, still in her jim-jams, cigarette in one had, giant McFlurry in the other. The startled look on her face as I flew by. Does that make me shallow?

    When people think I'm younger than I really am

    massive sweat stains after exercising.
    hearing of a couple in trouble after they have so openly judged and commented on my life.

    - Having to remind myself to take the levels down while leading my yoga class.
    - Telling people that I'm double-majoring and have two jobs.
    - The 'tough guy' next to me on a cardio machine working at level 1 while I'm at 20, going the same pace.
    - Running the mile to work with a backpack, making it in 6 minutes.

    Just getting in my truck. And no, it's not some kind of monster truck or a weak attempt at making up for my short .... commings.

    Being with the greatest woman alive. Seriously, she's awesome.

    Knowing some people will receive their comeuppance.

    Knowing this fat suit is temporary.

    When I tell people I'm a fitness instructor and they look at my hips. Their face screams, "Yeah right!!!"



    After my class, they can barely drag their *kitten* outta there :bigsmile:

    when people try to out-sarcasm me and fail (they usually do) and I tell them that they're pathetic for even trying. I may be mean...

    to walk in a room and have people complement me on how good I look, when last year I could hear them whisper how big my Butte was.
    To have a guy come up to me to see if I will take his #, then I have to tell him I am married. Even then he still sticks around talking to me about my marriage, It is wonderful, then after 10 min of trying him walking off with respect for me.
    I know it is all about looks, but I have been fat for so long its been years since I've had anyone other than my sweet husband complement me like that. It just makes me feel like I accomplished something great for myself and makes me want to keep it up even more.

    Listening to people complain about their spouses and having absolutly nothing to contribute to the conversation because I have a wonderful, great husband.

    Going to the grocery store after a good hard run with no makeup on and sweaty clothes and people are in their PJs having done nothing yet for the day.
