    Ha. I have always found it funny to see someone have a diet drink with a horrid meal. It's as if they are trying to fool themselves that they are being healthy.

    But I usually do the same thing- it's either oatmeal or whole grain toast with PB and fruit every single day. I don't like my breakfast to be veried. There is no need when it's the perfect balance of carbs/fat/protein.

    I will always remember the day I was working at Pizza Hut and 2 ladies in their 40s came in for lunch, 2 pm. I was around 21 so had the world by the b.....uh horns....

    They are dressed in workout clothes and are soaking wet (picture sweat bands around their heads matching the leotard and scrunch socks and hi top rebox to match!)

    They sit and make a huge show of orering 2 DIET cokes......We had pepsi......they announce DIET pepsi then. Get salads from the salad bar (which in retrospect was loaded with 2 ladles of blue cheese dressing.......but I digress!)

    I was cleaning after lunch and setting up for dinner so I went in back assuming they were going to just graze for awhile. I hear "MISS.:angry: .............MIIIIIIIISSSSSSSS:angry: !~"

    They are angry as wet hens " Miss you did not take our order!!":grumble: :grumble:

    I apologize profusely, explain I am the manager and will comp the salad............:happy: :happy:


    They then ordered large super supreme PAN pizza (I made them with 4 oz of oil in the bottom of the pan!!) I was sure it was to go........but no, it was for the table.

    They ate ever last bite of that pizza!!! :laugh: :laugh:

    I also remember hearing them talk at the table that it was not fair that they exercised like fiends and that littel waitress probably eats anything she wants and doesn't gain a pound (I was 21 and 100 pounds soaking wet)

    People just do not get it!

    I don't drink sodas often and when I do it's never "diet". I don't like the artificial sweetner aspartame that's in most diet soads. I might have one soda every other month or something. I like a little Coke/Pepsi when I'm eating a slice of pizza.

    Ask your coworker how can they eat such a fattending high-calorie sandwich for breakfast and down it with a diet soda.

    I don't like the artificial sweetener either - leaves a nasty aftertaste in my mouth. I like Hansen's Natural soda if I'm going to have one.

    Jeez, go easy on the guy . . . 540 calories and tons of protein and not drinking the real pepsi is saving 200 calories or so. Only eat half the biscuit and I don't see the big problem at all. Breakfast is supposed to be your biggest meal and If 540 calories is my biggest meal it has been a good day.
