Ask to share dessert then hurry and eat as much as you can

You don't. You say "let's be healthy" and put it on yourself. "Let's go to the gym together", "let's do a marathon together and train together", "let's eat paleo together", etc.

I would think eating desert would make you thinner actually. That sand has a dessicating property

Well, step 1 is to create a good Tinder profile because you will need one after this conversation.

Recognize that you have bought into a slanted narrative that excessively vilifies overweight people. Consider the real reasons why you feel personally upset by someone else's decisions: worry about health? Worry for loss of social status? Deeply ingrained preconceptions? Proceed from there.

C1, I disagree with you entirely. If I find someone unattractive, sex will not be as enjoyable. I'm not vilifying fat people, I just have my own preferences. All down to include everyone in everything else, but my bedroom is my choice.

I'm sure they realize it. Not really your place to tell someone else what to eat.

Don't. Set an example for your SO, be more active and make balanced choices. Make changes to how you spend time together - take your SO to long walks and rock climbing to get your SO to move. Be tactful. I don't know the story but if there's one you want your SO to be mindful when this happens to you and not sit you down and have a conversation about your weight.

@ATK1 I literally said nothing about any of the things you mention, nor do we even know if OP is talking about a significant other, a friend, a colleague, etc. All I talked about is that there's an outsized (no pun intended) amount of animosity towards overweight people, the reasons for which often go unexamined. This is independent of whether you're talking about potential sexual partners or just in general.

like

Just say it like it is. What's with all this not being direct. I would be offended if someone sugar coated sentences to me.

I think OP meant how to have this conversation with a team member

My mom told me that after freshman year of college. I changed pretty quickly.

Change the order. Eat desert first and abort entree. Lol

Is this a SO?

A 150 years ago, fat was in because rich people could afford three meals a day and were rather bigger than the rest of the populace (and likely lived longer). All about the environment/ context.

Hi all! Has anyone else been interviewing for in-house, mid-level Privacy counsel roles? I have found these interviews to be extremely demanding (11+ 45min-1hr interviews with technical/legal specific questions + 10hr writing assessment). Has any one else experienced this? Is anyone else finding that these assessments are becoming more of a norm in the interview process for privacy roles? Thoughts on this or advice? Thank you!

first time therapy question:

I’m signing forms now as a first time therapy-goer and it says that my therapist would *have* to make a diagnosis for insurance purposes. Does this mean they have to find something to say I have? Do they tell you and is it something that sticks with you?

I really just want to go to have a third party to talk to and gain more insight on myself. Just wanted to hear any opinions before signing. Thanks in advance 🙏

What do you do with employees who keep finding excuses for being slow on their tasks? We hired someone a couple months ago. She is doing ok with her routine tasks, but when I assign her one off project, she’s slow and would never report her progress unless I ask her. And when I ask (weeks later), half of the time she says “I was planning on doing it this week.” I tried to tell her deadlines, but it’s not working.

I’m sober curious. I’m also about to help a new non-alcoholic spirit company with their launch.
I have a question for people in recovery. If a brand were to contend that sobriety is a spectrum, or allow for that to a least be part of the conversation, how does that make you feel? Are other brands doing a good job of being inclusive of people who are truly sober?
(I get that NA drinks / spirits can be triggering for people in recovery)
Thank you.
