    When I started I didn't talk or mention it to anyone aside from close friends due to having to explain why I can't do the weekly food amount consuming contest or drinking games. As time passed and the results were very obvious people started to ask me, and I still only say watching what I eat and exercising more. But I can see were she came from if she had no outlet to talk about that stuff, lucky for us we got MFP.

    You are always on point with your responses. Thank You.

    I agree it does get annoying to only talk about my weight loss. There is more to us than just weight loss and exercise. In general I don't bring it up or offer advice. Only if asked. Most have no interest in what you have to say any way, so I tend to keep my mouth shut. That is me....

    I'm in an office of 3:00 chocolate eaters. And, I'll admit, I endulge too, when I have the calories to spare. However, when I don't have the calories to spare, my co-workers seem to try to force feed me whatever they're munching on. So, I'll explain to them, "There are too many calories in that, and I don't want to go over", or something along those lines. And, it irritates the heck out of them!!! Should I just stay quiet and be the antisocial one during munchie hour?

    Well stated. I guess any one topic could get annoying though.

    Yes. Make comments like "that will make me fat." Subconsiously it will make them reevaluate eating them as well. That is if they care even a little.
