25. Eating too much carbs and weight is moving in the wrong direction. Guess it is winter and I crave more carbs plus all the candy sharing in the office started full force. Yesterday a colleague of mine stayed in my cubicle to watch me eat the candy she brought much in the same way nurses watch patients in mental hospitals take pills. It was not even one of the kind I like, so the calories were totally wasted. I blantly refused to eat another one and she looked offended. She is very obese and takes laws of reciprocity to the extreme. She often brings very unhealthy food to the office and than circles around with plates and boxes making people eat it in an attempt to win popularity. I lost enough weight to make some of my friends and colleagues irritated by the fact that I look better than them, not that it really matters to me. But I heard a few nasty comments about my weight loss.

Well I do not really know why most people especially women tend to make such comments. They usually fall into two categories - are you sick? And then they will give me an example of somebody who lost weight just before being diagnosed with some terrible desease. Or they just comment on me being obsessed with dieting or my body or having an eating disorder or trying to be better than everybody. I am actually neither obsessed or interested in telling anybody that I am trying to lose. Only FS and DH know that it is a planned effort. Interestingly that those who are themselves watching their weight and trying to lose it make same comments. The mildest comment is that I should not even try as I will still regain it. I lost only about 20 lb over a year and I was at my peak very shortly after having really bad back problems for some time before that. So my weight loss should not be that big topic for comments. Even my mom said a few nasty things - both about me only thinking about myself and about me never knowing how to take care of myself. Very logical. I wish people were supportive but they are not. I am OK with that. That is why it is great to have FS and journal to vent.

Just do your thing. But I am sure you already are :)
