    for what it's worth...
    First..to those folks who say you are being oversensitive...It's probably because they tend to judge others like your coworker does...Secondly, You are doing what others don't have the courage to step out and do...a lifestyle change isn't a weekend visit..It's full custody of a new life. I applaud your ability to make spur of the moment decisions that are actually healthy. You could have ordered pizza...or gave in and had pie..then felt guilt over it. Your coworker most likely went back home after work and fell right back into the insanity of doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. It's ok to be a little upset at jealousy and ignorance..but far better for your health to smile at them and say " God bless you too" and walk away healthier than yesterday. Well done!

    I would cut back on how much information I shared with my coworkers about my diet, health, etc. I'm not saying you were wrong to do so in the first place, but it sounds like there is an overfamiliarity there and it's causing problems for you.

    I really wonder if people are as they are being portrayed in all these sabotage, he/she said/did this to me, etc stories. Probably not. I'd bet a lot of it is just you being a bit too sensitive on the issue. We've all been guilty of it now and again, but honestly, instead of wasting so much time and energy focused on it, let it go and move on.

  • My ex husband's new girlfriend told my 10 year old daughter that she was chunky and made remarks about my 15 year old. AND this particular girlfriend was NOT thin AT ALL.

    Soooo.....

    I told my son, "here's what you do. Next time all of you are sitting at the table eating, look at her and say, "are you really going to eat all of that? You've put on a little weight haven't you?!"

    My son did as told and it worked. Pissed her off and she never remarked about my kid's anymore. :laugh:

    There are ways of coming back with things to throw it back at people who are rude. :happy:

    Sometimes people really aren't trying to be mean or aren't automatically jealous. It's crazy to me when people put things on fruit...and I would question sugar or splenda on fruit. Hey it's not really of my business but it would look weird. And I know if I add something not that healthy to some healthy my husband would say something along the lines "you should have just eaten what you really wanted" and he would say it not to be mean. So I would simply say I am eating less calories this way.
  • Thanks again to all those who have replied and shared their cents on the matter. I do not believe I was making her out to be a bad person I was stating how her actions affected me to be pissed, probably because we both agreed we would do things to be healthier,....I'm not judging or laughing at her methods so to those that think I'm making her out to be a bad person, not the case at all. For the final time I was asking others how ppl act/react/change/not change to them being healthier and making better choices for themselves, and how they deal or have dealt with it. I've handled that situation already and I'm pretty sure it will not happen again I have no problem stating how something makes me uncomfortable or question someone's motives especially if I consider this person a friend...or be it a family member even. To all, have a great day:flowerforyou: ...I'm going to go eat a apple, however I choose...because it's not pie:tongue:
  • Wait, how long did you microwave the apple?

    1 minute intervals til I got it how I liked it...probably about 3 minutes I think....once it was hot, I added the condiments
