When people say “it’s just one time!” when they offer you snacks you don’t want to eat
I just hate when I let people know I am dieting/eating to lose weight/etc so when I politely refuse them offering me cookies, cake, pizza, non-black coffee they go “oh come on it’s just this one time!”
Except you offered me something yesterday. And the day before. And people brought in donuts today. And someone is always passing around snacks and foods and leftovers. I feel like people are always offering junk food where I work and while it’s well intentioned, if I ate everything that was offered all those “one times” would add up fast! And a lot of it is stuff I genuinely just don’t want.
Someone might offer me one cookie and go “oh you can have ONE cookie” but they don’t realize how many other things like this I’ve had to turn down, or the already preplanned snacks I have accounted for. And it’s even worse when they just keep nagging you! I’m not being rude but I have to set boundaries on what I will and won’t eat in order to successfully drop weight. That’s it!
Anyway just needed to vent and see how everyone else handles it when people just refuse to accept that yes even just a few extra snacks or mindless eating can really screw up your weight loss goals.
