Co-worker keeps trying to feed me.

Anyone else have issues with friends or co-workers who just keep offering you food no matter how many times you explain how managed your diet becomes post op?

Not directly to me, but between all the different departments in my large plant, there is a big party going on everyday somewhere in the plant.

food, goodies and huge amounts of it.

After bypass it no longer looks good, and luckily no foodie pushers yet.

Sabotaging - I don't even think they're conscious of it. :-(

Not yet, but I'm anticipating it from my mother in law next time we go visit. Worst food pusher I've ever met!

My parents are food pushers!! I'm visiting them right now for a week and it is constant, even though I tried to head it off by having a calm conversation when I first arrived. But everyday "do you want strawberry shortcake" "Ice cream" "cake", "cookies" "hot dogs" "sausages" -- should I go on??!! It's insane. My dad does it even while I'm in the process of eating. It's really hard. There will always be someone who does that. They really don't mean anything by it, not really trying to sabotage, sometimes it's all they know.

My father N Law is the worst food pusher of them all. It's weird because I see him every Sunday and sometimes in between. He is always looking at me weird and telling me how pretty I look now that I am thin.

Then comes the, do you want a piece of cake or he is always pushing butter pecan ice cream on me. Of course I never take it and no matter how many times my hubby and I tell him that ice cream gives me a tummy ache, he still does it. Many times badly enough to put it in a bowl and hand it to me. I just don't understand why someone does that?

Then he will say things like, I am so sad that you can't have ice cream. "That's just terrible, it's a shame....." I always respond by saying I honestly dont even care about ice cream. I would rather eat some fresh strawberries or cherries or steak! LOL.

He just doesn't understand and I am certain it has to do with his age. He thinks that I completely screwed up the rest of my life. It's too funny because I am thrilled with how I look, how I feel and that food no longer has a hold on me. I simply eat to live, not live to eat like before.

I manage a restaurant. Lol. It's cool though, I don't succumb to the smells and food.

Good things come to good people.

My coworkers are TERRIBLE food pushers. They will bring sweets to my desk and hold it in my face with sweet and kind faces (we have the world famous Donut Bar across the street)—and when I gently put up my hand and say "no thank you," you'd think I broke their heart.
