I Guess I'm a Gym Regular Now

I was just going to make this post about how while today's weigh in was positive (-5.7 pounds), I'm not getting my hopes up yet unless I lose more next week. I've consistently lost every day this week, but I'm still hoping it's not another fluke. Guess we'll see what happens next week with regards to that...

But I was more or less told that I'm a regular every day. I was working through the weight machines and two women who have been coming regularly for a few weeks now walked up to me and asked if I came to the gym by myself or if I came alone. Instantly wary because people were talking to me, I told them that I come alone every day and one of them said "you fucking rock," and that she was just talking to her friend about how they see me here every day no matter what. It's exactly what I needed to hear today, especially since I did NOT want to go and almost didn't. And whether or not they keep coming, knowing that there are people who pay attention to my attendance is going to make me go and work harder because I don't want to deal with the "Where've you been?" questions.
