BL Vent
She is just fvcking getting on my nerves today.
1 - I asked her if there was any possibility I could use a vacation day tomorrow to spend the day with M. They FINALLY finished the boat this morning and now have tomorrow off and he wanted to spend the day with me. I knew it was last minute and probably wouldn't be a go, so I asked anyway, now I asked nicely, and even apologized for asking last minute and she STILL got pissed off about it, couldn't even just say no, got PISSED.
2 - She asked me this morning if I have lost any weight on my diet (she is INSISTING I'm on a diet, she says "Being a vegetarian, or whatever you're doing is not a lifestyle, it's a diet"). I told her about the 6 lbs and she congratulated me but then threw in the "well, I suppose that's what you get when all you eat is fruit". FU biitch, I don't eat just fruit, that's all YOU see me eat because I eat all my other meals at home you fvcking azzhole. Then she has the balls to come up to me before going to lunch and asking "You know that protein powder we were drinking? Can you drink that still because you'll get sick of eating what you're eating, you need to be able to change things up, trust me, I've done lots of diets and there's no reason you shouldn't be able to drink it. Especially with the way I make them with the fruit and water". I say to her that I don't know I would have to look at the ingredients again and see if it's made with any dairy or anything like that. She said "Oh, I'll look when I get home and I'll make you one if not because you can't just eat fruit all the time, it's not good for you eating barely anything". Seriously, the biitch just doesn't get it and needs to lay the fvck off.
UGH! Please, can I get a free pass to slap the shiit out of her today?
Re: BL Vent
Ditto Cassie.
And, yes, you totally have my permission to b!tch slap her as needed.
Sheri-EONS ago, I had a boss who used to analyze my food, etc.. (even when I was in the breakroom on my break). He had NO ROOM to talk. And-I was (as always) dieting or eating healthy or whatever it was at the time...
I had had enough of him and told him if he didn't stop hounding me on my food/eating habits that this was harrassment and I would take it to the next level. (He was utterly obnoxious.) He did stop.
I'm sorry she's being a PIA with this all. I'd tell her to kindly stop as it's not appreciated. Then, you prob won't be able to discuss vegetarian foods, etc, but it is what it is...
(not as satisfying as the b!tch slap, sorry!)
Permission granted.
Ditto to this! I can't stand people that make everything THEIR business! You are just doing your thing and BAM it becomes this huge thing for nothing! She just craves attention it seems. . .
DO IT!
I forget who said it, but "Living well is the best revenge." She's just trying to keep you down, now that you're empowered. Weak people are very pissy and uncomfortable with change.
The only diets that actually work in teh long term are lifestyle changes...so whatever your choice of food has become - it will become part of your new lifestyle.
I give you lots of credit for starting so strong and I hope you are able to stick to it for your health and weight loss goals!
Your BL sounds jealous that you are going to lose more weight than her. its kind of funny how obsessed she seems to be with your food intake.
Go You!

I totally agree with what aria and twink said!

EXACTLY! But you can still biitch slap her. . .
This! I have these orange sneakers that have become known at work as my azz-kicking shoes (b/c they're so comfy, I usually wear them when I'm auditing)...I'll let you borrow them to shove one up her ass.
