I know what it's like to be in the fat lab... I initially posted a topic about this, but deleted it because it seemed like it was needless bragging. Basically, I work in a research lab in the IS department at my school, and I'm part of the 'thin lab'. My lab, perhaps because my advisor is a 'no bullshit' type of person, is filled with thin to normal people. We're neurotic, but we're also not overweight.  Besides the pregnant girl, I probably weight the most at 5' 8'' and 150 pounds. Anyways,  recently had to work at one of my colleague's labs in order to get work done and they're kind of the 'fat lab'.  The biggest fat hint they have is the box of candy. They have this big box of candy for communal use, and I've had a piece here and there. But I hadn't realized how fast that thing goes until these past few weeks: apparently, they go through this thing/refill it once every 2-3 weeks. Which doesn't sound so bad, until you see how large it is: Here it is, about 3/4th of the way full. Other highlights from the lab: This is why I joined FPH in the first place: almost everyone around me is fat. I need these constant daily reminders on remaining slim.
