Over the years, I have acquired a certain reputation. For some reason, those close to me tend to think that I have no threshold for fullness. For example . . .
1) I was on vacation, at a table with six girlfriends, and we were all sitting there and eating an obscene amount of steamed blue crabs. The crabs were soo delicious and we were all loving our lives-- until we realized that we were quite full. There were still three or four crabs left and our hostess did not want to wrap them up or have them go to waste . . . so a few of my friends looked at me and said, "You can do it. Take one for the team." Ha! Riiight...
2) I was meeting up four friends at a sushi restaurant, and I came a bit later than they did. When I got there, they had already gotten their rolls and were halfway through them. As I sat down, one mentioned that he was full-- and then another looked at me and said, "Don't worry-- Ji will finish them." Huh!?! Haha.
3) We had a work birthday party this morning and I brought in some bagels which I cut in halves. Another lady coworker came over and started cutting those halves in halves because she didn't think people would be able to finish them. Then a different coworker overheard and said, "Oh, Ji can finish a whole one." Then the other lady coworker nodded and said, "She sure can. That one has an appetite on her!" Um . . . is it that obvious!? Haha.
In conclusion, while I thought I was a closet fattie this whole time . . . it appears that the world is aware of my . . . ability. *sigh* Must...stop...eating...in public....
