    Ok i guess the ones who are saying who cares are right ...something in me heard this instaed " YOUR FAT!! YOUR ALWAYS ON A DIET ! ... Binging is so much easier then saying how you feel on here sometimes. :indifferent:
    Listen to the voices in your head less.

    They do not care for you and yours...

    The voices in my head think you're cool. They tell me to stalk you, but I can't afford the plane ticket.

    I'd probably just ask him in a few months, preferably while you are eating something healthy, how his diet is going. Thinly veiled snark is always the answer in my book :laugh:

    That is very strange. Hate it when people just assume things because some one is not a size 0!

    In his defense, he might not have had the slightest clue what you were actually trying to tell him...


    ...because...


    ...well, you know.

    next time you see him remind him that technically speaking we are all on a diet! A healthy diet, a crappy diet, etc.. Everyones daily macros = their diet.

    ^This. I wouldn't have flown off the handle so easily about the terminology. He may have been trying to reach out to you for help making changes in his own diet. Some people (myself included) have trouble getting the point across in a universally acceptable way. It's like having a social handicap. Just pity him.

    So he used a different word for what you're doing, it's not the end of the world my little chicken! Cheer up! Just keep going and you'll no longer be the office 'fat girl' (OP phrase not mine!!) just keep ya head down and keep plugging away at this diet game and it will quieten down the voices in your head and the office big mouth ;-)

    This is a HUGE pet peeve of mine. If you're not stuffing your face with cheeseburgers and fries everyday, and instead are choosing healthy, nourishing foods your body needs, then you're "dieting"? Wake up, America! This is how you're SUPPOSED to eat.

    Ugh, ignore that loser.

    By the way, congratulations on the 40-pound loss. I know that is no easy feat.

    This is what you are so upset about?

    That was my first thought too. It doesn't sound like (from your description) that is what he meant at all.

    That said, to some people healthy foods will always be a "diet." Even before I tried loosing, if I had a salad or something that was considered good for me, I'd get the "oh, are you trying to loose weight?" crap. Is it really so far off base that maybe, just maybe, people eat healthy things because they LIKE them??

    This made me think of something that happened to me...I was checking out at the supermarket and had two boxes of cereal. The cashier asked me if I was on some sort of cereal diet! WTF! It was buy one get one free! I had to get two boxes. But just b/c I am fat, there was an assumption that it was some sort of "diet." So to the OP, I understand how you were taking what he said, but it's really possible he didn't mean anything by it. Just let it go and keep up the good work!
