I understand their perspective, completely. I never said that my co-workers were making me miserable. I just can't mentally handle the situation. It stresses me out to know that there are such good foods in the kitchen ten feet from my office and I can't have any of it.
I understand that they are going to continue living like you said. I don't want them to change. I just wish they could understand what they are doing to their bodies.
It's also hard for me to sit here and smell all this great food being cooked and not be able to eat it. It is very hard for me. That's when I overeat and try to hide it.
Yes, my co-workers know I have this medical condition. Most of them do understand, but they think it's just like a tummy ache when you've eaten too much. (Like a kid wanting to leave school because his tummy hurts) It's much more than what they think it is.
I don't need to be patronized right now. I'm very stressed out.
I don't care if they eat like pigs. I just needed to vent because I can't eat what they do eat.
Now the DH's parents are BEGGING us to come eat supper, again!!!!! We do this once a frigging week, and it gets old, because I have to take my own supper. They cook steaks, and yeah, I know, they are just "living" like they want to. BUT It's so hard to sit there and watch them eat steaks and potatoes drowning in butter and sourcream and bacon and cheese. I don't want to have to watch someone eating this stuff once a week. At least the DH understands and doesn't rub it in my face.
Hell, I can't eat chicken, and they think I can.
I'm just stressed out and needed some words of encouragement.
Sorry.
