Three times today while at work my co-worker mentions that I'm on a starvation diet. Literally 3 times "must be that starvation diet you're on;" "you really are on a starvation diet, aren't you" ha ha ha. Like she's kind of kidding, but not really.

The thing is... she sees me eat. When there weren't enough people in the office for me to take a normally timed lunch (4 hours after my breakfast) I used to eat a morning snack at my desk and take a ridiculously late lunch. Maybe, now that I take an 11:30 lunch she thinks I'm not eating? And yeah, I mention having a growly stomach at 10:30, but honestly, if I had my way I'd eat all freaking day- probably every hour. So, of course my stomach is going to growl 3 hours after breakfast.

I really don't get it. All I can think of is that maybe I left the history in my browser after reading some blogs and she used the computer (we have to share, but have separate log ins). Or maybe she saw some notes I left of calorie counts, but that would only reflect 1/2 of my food for the day.

And it's not like I've lost ANY weight for her to think I'm starving myself.

Either way... I'm not on a starvation diet. Even if I do dip to 900 some days, I make up for it others and aim for a daily of 1200. Which for the weight I want to be is completely normal.

I didn't ask her why she said that, I just laughed and was like, no I eat what and when and how much Jillian Michaels tells me to. She knows I'm obsessed with JM. It is super annoying. I shouldn't have to justify what I eat to anyone, much less my co-worker.

You aren't pigging out like they probably do so to them you are starving. Plus you are probably pretty slim. People are funny.
