Gosh - I had to look to make sure we didn't work together! The people I work with are always trying to put me down, and tell me all the time that they think I'm nuts. Sabotaging my diet, and belittling my active lifestyle. I used to let it get to me, until one woman, who I am very good friends with and has been struggling with her weight for as long as I've known her, said something that changed my feelings. She had asked what I had done one weekend, and it the first time I had done two 50 mile days. Ever so softly, she whispered that I was her heroine. So, look underneath other's comments. You might be surprised at what you see.
