Inspiration - the change room lady

Today after I was done running and lifting and dragging a tire around, I ended up chatting with a lady in the Innovative changing room (where quite a bit of inspiration has come from truthfully). She told me her story of training helping her go from not being able to walk to being active and then being able to come off of multiple medications, losing weight, etc - inspirational really. And then....she went on to tell me I shouldn't get discouraged...some girls just wont ever be thin and some body types are just bigger than others....ummmmm.....hmmmmm....if she hadn't been a nice older lady who clearly intended well, I may have kicked her right in the hoop. Who tells someone "that's nice that you are working hard but don't feel too bad when you stay a big girl"....this is not my first time around the weight loss block and I know where I can be...when I get back there I'm going to march up to that lady and rub her face against my rock hard abs.
It's times like this that I see my mother in me....she's a pretty feisty lady and she would likely go and lose 20lbs just to spite someone who tells her she can't. With her genetic codes floating around in my system, I shouldn't be shocked that someone telling me I'll likely fail is more motivating than "doing it for myself". Whatever gets you across the finish line I guess?
