There is this girl at work, unfortunately she now sits right across from me..she is the queen of diet, and exercise. She spends probably 1/2 of her income on "magical" weight loss pills, exercise gadgets, and what have you. She knows it all when it comes to losing weight, but of course can't manage to do it. I've known her since I've been here, over 3 yrs now. She's done "atkins" or her version of it..no matter how nicely, or firmly you put it, you can't tell her anything about what she may be doing wrong, or how to try things differently.
She made a huge deal of when I was doing atkins a year or so ago, because this guy she knew, supposidly almost died of kidney failure, and it was due to Atkins she says.
After ranting up one side of me, and down the other, and taking every chance to involve my atkins lifestyle, and bringing other coworkers into the conversation by telling them about how bad it is, because her friend is going to die now, because of Atkins.
She's since tried Atkins probably 5 times at least.
Today she brought in bags of chocolate for everyone because they were 50% off at the store..so I had to tell her none for me, because I am trying Atkins again. She started right off with the crap. She first has this look on her face, I would interperet it to say, oh no she doesn't, she is not going to lose more weight than me! Then says that she is thinking of doing it again as well, "at least in the begining because you can drop so much weight so quickly", then go on to "healthy food"..and that she has a hard time doing it because she can't stomach eggs (???), as I sit here eating my omlet.
She will take every chance she gets to publically announce to everyone that I am doing atkins, and won't get all the "treats" they are having, or whatever she can do.
When they are eating junk, it actually motivates me more to stay away from it, but it's her mouth that really drives me nuts!
