Today was a bad day for me. I'm going through a lot of crap in my life, and it was really hitting me hard today. I usually rely on my job as a barista to keep my mind busy and make me feel needed, but with the corona stuff happening, it was really slow today. There were also less coworkers there, so overall, it was just a sad, blah sort of day.
However, one customer came through that really made me feel good. She was talking about the calories in the drink she was getting, and mentioned she was trying to cut back and lose a few pounds. She looked at me and said, "you're already fit, so you might not worry about this stuff." Lol! I told her I'd recently lost almost 100 lbs, and she was shocked! I told her my Starbucks go-tos, because we have some pretty good food choices that I've been eating all along during my weight loss.
It was pretty validating to hear that. I've been obese for much of my adult life, and in my mind I still feel like a fat girl a lot of the time. I don't know what people see when they see me. It made me feel pretty great! This incident, and the guy who yelled at me in traffic the other day and called me an effing c-word, but not a FAT effing c-word, drove it home that I'm not fat anymore. Lol 😊
