When people shove junk food in your face...

Noctuary

Oh man I've been there. I am Diabetic and am really cracking down on not eating anything at work (bowling alley) Bowlers give us homemade goodies all the time. I just say no thank you. Some of my friends like to start explaining why they are eating the junk they eat. And I'm like nooo, it's ok! I'll be alive while you all die of Diabetus! Then we laugh. Sometimes humor cuts the tension and gets the point across. I now just turn and walk away to my snack bag. The less I make out of it, the less important it feels to me.

Yeah I had the SAME situation today!!! Except these people KNOW I am trying to reduce body fat.....difference is.....they disagree with my choice. THAT PISSES ME OFF

it's my choice, so why do you CHOOSE to sit there and tell me "you don't need to" or "are you trying to look anorexic?" frustrating. i am 28% FAT.....why the hell would i not want to change that?

You make me laugh! I love it! I completely know what you're talking about too. They just don't want to feel bad doing it alone. So if you're there eating it with them, it makes it ok. I've noticed this with family. Way to be strong!!

Where I work, they usually bring in healthy food for lunch meetings and such. Today someone brought in a box of miscellaneous cookies and I may have helped myself to one (or three). I haven't really had a problem with people pushing food on me, but that's probably because I already beat them to it :laugh: .
