I'm 5'9" 135 pounds...I get asked that boneheaded question a lot. I always tell the stupid f***s that I live on carbs....I tell them that 85% of my f***ing calories come from complex carbs and that I have to eat like a f***ing grizzly bear to keep from dipping below 135. I tell them that carbs will boost their metabolism just like they have boosted mine.
...I purposely leave out the 80 mpw part...f*** 'em.
I'd probably say the same, no point in trying to explain to people about running, eating etc.. no more than a hells angels could convince me to join a motorcycle gang or a triathlete could get me to shave my legs...
However if she harasses you just tell the cunt to f*** right off and that she's a fat f***ing pissbag.
Okay, I know we had a similar thread last month or so, but I wanted to start a new thread...
Please tell me how I could have handled this better, or if this has happened to you.
So after my lunch run today, I was sitting at my desk about to eat leftovers from last night for lunch. It was whole wheat pasta with grilled chicken, fresh tomatoes, olives, green peppers and mushrooms on top of it. The veggies had all been steamed, and mixed in with the pasta. The chicken was made on the George Forman.
Now, it was a small amount, not a huge tupperware container full, just about a cup and a half worth.
A woman walks up and says to me, "I thought you were one of those healthy eaters. You don't eat pasta do you?"
I just smiled and said that I splurge sometimes, but I felt like I should have said more.
What would you have said?
Hey Lady, "protein this".
I would have said "I do eat healthy. I eat lots of pasta. four or five times a week." Because I do. And I'm 5'9" and weigh 138, so just about everybody at work is heavier than me.
Lefty, I am not much different in size. I am by far the thinnest person at work, besides the weird IT guy that could have starred in The Machinist.
I felt like saying that might have blown a gasket on this lady. She is always noticing what I am eating. It ruins my lunch many of the times. Comments here, comments there. I don't ever say anything when they eat their two hot pockets, a bag of pork rinds and a coke.
Whats so wrong with two hot pockets, a bag of pork rinds and a coke? I eat that all the time and I am 135 lbs.
file a lawsuit. harrasment of skinny, thin-skinned, runners is getting out of hand...
suck it up.
She's likely part of the Atkins cult. Inform her that there are man ways to skin a cat.
well maybe you should start to say something to them when they are gorging. just be like "you arent eating that are you, maybe you shouldn't eat, you might look better, fatass!!!"

HEY!
I don't feel harrassed. I am wondering if I should help her by explaining she is a moron. I'll let you stick to the sucking.
And to the other guy up there... If you are eating 2 hot pockets, pork rinds and coke for lunch, your body hates you, regardless of how thin you are.
yeah, you should help her by explaining she's a moron. Then help yourself by admitting you're a dickhead.
man, if you work in an office setting there are always things that are better left unsaid. for you apparently it's about your nutritional habits. this is one of the those situations where you wish you could say any number of things but it's best to just smile and say what you actually did say. that is, unless you don't care about your job and then say anything you want.

I bet you are fat.
Just tell her pasta is healthy!
Don't let the stupid people in the world get to you. You aren't going to save them, just let them live with their fads (Atkins).
