I got a new job, which I really like, three months ago. The problem is it is a weight loss nightmare. Every work area has a food table, and people talk about food/eat, all day long. The people next to me start munching first thing in the morning and continue through the day.
People send emails out about where the good food is each day. It is already a sedentary job, and I am trying VERY hard to get a fresh start on weight loss and life......at least I am not gaining. I walk on my breaks and bring healthy food, but it is seriously hard---I feel like I use up so much willpower at work that I am worn down by the end of the day and my resistance is gone. I tried bringing a vegie tray, but hardly anyone touched it. Management supports this environment, so there is not much hope of me changing it. I feel like an alcoholic who has to work in a bar all day. Any ideas out there? I am still at about 240 pounds and taking medicine that causes weight gain (nope, can't change the medicine, already went that route).
Getting very discouraged. Thanks!
