Why is it, do you think, that people around you at work need to try to see you eat? Now we are coming up to Xmas, are you finding loads of pressure to join in Xmas dinners? Why cants you r workmates accept that you can just sit with them and still have fun without the meal too?
Do you think they are concerned about you having fun, feel you are missing out, or do you think they feel you sitting there not indulging will take some of their enjoyment away? Eating and drinking are such a large part of our socialisation rituals these days, I know I have had less social life since starting the diet and my mates think I am no fun anymore. But wasn't it our company they liked?
