when the food they're eating really isn't that "diet friendly".
Except you're defining "diet friendly" by your own limited perspective. And yes, you ARE judging.
There is nothing unhealthy about OJ and a banana ... you have no idea how her body handles that kind of carb intake. And you have no idea where she was going with that food. I often eat a banana right before working out ... because I want the extra carbs and potassium before the gym. And I often put my post workout protein powder into a bottle of OJ - for the same reason, to restore my carb/protein levels after working out (and because I think vanilla protein powder in OJ tastes like an Orange Julius from the mall and it's kinda a post-gym treat for me).
And how do you know that someone eating a 100 cal pack or a diet bar "thinks they're being healthy". Maybe they wanted that particular food at that particular time and weren't thinking about being healthy.
You know what ... sometimes I go to Steak and Shake and get a jr sized strawberry yogurt shake. You would look at me and go "oh she *thinks* she's being all healthy getting the yogurt shake, but I know better". But you know what .. I have no pretense that I'm being "healthy" by getting my sugar rush from frozen yogurt. I do know that what I'm doing is treating myself - within my calorie limits, thanks very much. And I choose the yogurt shake over the regular shake because there are fewer calories and I can fit it into my plan.
Honestly your whole post reeks of being judgmental - everything from the "they think they're being healthy" comment to the "sorority girl who would sneer at a hamburger" comment.
Seriously. I don't mean to be ugly here, but this is exactly the type of attitude that turns people off of these types of plans - like SBD, Atkins, etc. That attitude that unless you're on MY plan, you can't possibly be healthy.
