Every once in a while it’s nice to get some positive
feedback — from non-family members. Today, I received just that at the gym when
not one, but two, people asked me for training tips. Now, granted, they might
just as easily have asked me for advice on how to eat an entire pecan pie in 30
minutes or less — I still have a lot of weight to lose — but at least it’s nice
to know that I have a few things going for me.
Of course, I know for some — those that have even more weight
to shed than I — having others notice and comment on their progress is unlikely.
Sadly, among its other negative properties, excessive body fat has a way of
obscuring the positive changes one is undertaking (and sometimes the scale is a willing accomplice).
So, to those who toil in anonymity, I salute you. Anybody
who works hard has my respect and admiration — especially you nuts running on
the treadmill as though you’re being chased by a pack of rabid dogs.
