People who only eat salads

in Babies: 9 - 12 Months

annoy me. I know random. I have this coworker/friend who only eats salads every day for lunch. We've gone out to restaurants, have eaten in the cafe together at work, no matter what she always gets a salad. I literally have never seen her eat anything else.

This annoys me to no end. Maybe I'm just biitchy but doesn't that seem a bit obsessive? She's in amazing shape too, probably a size 2 and works out like crazy. Yes I am probably just jealous...

    Haha that is probably why she is in such great shape.

    Yup, sounds like jealousy to me.  Why not expend that energy working out instead of being annoyed with her?

    So she only eats salads for lunch (that you've seen). Oh, the HORROR! How dare she offend your delicate sensibilities with her healthy eating and toned body! I"m sure she does it on purpose just to annoy you, too. What a b!tch!

    Seriously? I hope this is supposed to be "funny" and you're not really this irritated. First off, it's very healthy to eat salads for lunch and be in good shape.  If we all could learn to do that we'd probably have a much healthier nation on our hands instead of eating all the garbage most people consume and call "food".

    I eat a lot of salads when I'm out. I can't keep in the range of veggies that most restaurants do. They go bad, and I'm not going to buy a whole block of tofu to make just enough for my salad or open a can of chickpeas just for that. So order them when I'm out and let other people do the chopping for me.

    I friggin LOVE salad. For a long time whenever I went anywhere, I ordered a salad. I wasn't trying to lose weight even a little bit. Salad is delicious. And there are so many KINDS. Grilled chicken salad, taco salad, salmon caesar salad. . ..mmmm.

    It's not always a healthy choice. At the restaurant where I worked in college, the worst item on the menu, fat-wise, was the steak caesar salad, which had over 100 fat grams.

    That said, I do tend to order salad when I go out in order to sneak in some more vegetables, since I suck at both packing veggies in my lunch and eating them at home. I am really bad about NOT ordering lowfat/fat free dressing though. Most of it is horrible-tasting, IMO.

    Salads only last about 20 minutes and then I'm hungry again.

    I was going to bring a salad for lunch today, but I was too lazy to make one last night/this morning. This post makes me wish I would have taken the time to make it. So I guess I will have my sandwich and yogurt instead.

    What annoys me are the people who eat salad and act all better than you about their food choice, yet dump a pound of ranch dressing on it.

    I love salads! But I agree that you have to be careful, because they aren't always healthy if you load up on fattening dressings, bacon, croutons, etc.

    Oh good gracious. Lighten up y'all. She didn't say she hopes the salad eater dies. I think you're taking the OP too seriously.  I thought the poster was writing in jest. She did say that she was probably jealous. Flame if you must but personally, I think eating salads all.the.time. is silly. You gotta enjoy life a little bit. I also think overeating all.the.time is silly.  Everything in moderation.
