I have to hide at work during lunch or just don’t eat because everyone comments on my salads or small, well portioned healthy meals. They always talk about my weight (“so skinny!!!”) and my food and use me as a catalyst to complain about their own weights. Its very uncomfortable. Those kinds of people always loved these kinds of memes.
Fuck those people. They’re your coworkers not your Grammy. If you can, tell them to stop or ask someone you trust to. If they don’t stop that’s harassment even if covered in humor or followed by self depreciation. They’re like the people that bitch about “ethnic food” smells but everyone has to be quiet when they peel open their Tupperware and the room smells like a brussels sprouts asshole.
I’ve only ever seen this slander towards salads coming from the US, so I have to ask, are salads trash in the US?
Do people imagine eating healthily is eating only lettuce (it isn’t)?
I don’t get it
In a time of crisis where 75% of US adults are overweight or obese, it actually is a good thing that we talk to people in our lives about things we’re doing to lose weight, as long as that’s being used as a positive example and not a way to act superior. (Also, if eating salads makes you sad, you’re doing salad wrong; iceberg lettuce with a few croutons and dressing is a salad in the same way that unseasoned broth with noodles and nothing else is soup.)
Then stop asking. People are always asking why I’m skipping a meal or not eating meat.
What’s this “diet” bullshit? Salad is awesome.
Damn, now I want a nice chicken cesar.
I’ve become addicted to chicken caesar salads
These things might kills us but they sure can be tasty.
I’m sad because I like a good salad but I have trouble making them. Damn you brain! Keeping me from being happier and healthier…
My eating disorder is one of my favorite topics of conversation
Literally me:
That’s the best part about working out at home. Nobody silently judges you for your apparently short term New Year’s resolution in January.
Presumably people who care about you as a person care about what you’re up to with your life, but maybe the author of this hasn’t experienced that.
I assume you mean my pile of bologna.
Oh, have you not heard of keto!?
Bundys did it
LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT HOW CARBS ARE BAD FOR YOU THO
I am truly, truly sorry to every person who ever said to me “hey man you lost some weight what you doin keto?” And I didn’t just say “yeah basically” and let it end there. I just… I’m really, really excited about it.
Keto cringe just eat normal
I only stopped with carbs because my doctor recommended I do so because I was likely to become diabetic if I didn’t. The weight loss was a result of that.
