I just wanted to share a story of what happened to me yesterday. I was at Walmart, checking out. My cashier was a younger woman, very pretty, kind of chubby but very cute. She noticed my sugar free candy in the cart, and she said "Mmmm, peanut butter cups, that sounds good." I told her, "Oh, they're sugar free. I'm a diabetic and can't eat the real sugar." She said "Oh, that must be how you stay skinny." I couldn't BELIEVE it! No one has said that to me since I was in high school. My friends family and coworkers constantly provide positive reinforcement, but I always thought they were telling me I was slim COMPARED to how I USED to look - not that I was OBJECTIVELY slim. And here is this total stranger observing that I am "skinny". It was such an awesome moment.
I am going to go to FIERCE class today, and walk the dog. I really am feeling a lot better so I am going to track today also, I think. Still keeping the RDI at 1500 right now. I think today will be a good day, and I really need another one.
