This Issue's Dilemma:

Dealing with hungry coworkers while sticking with my diet

I'm on a diet and prefer to keep it to myself. It's not my coworkers' business, and I don't care to explain myself. I don't want to go out to lunch because most restaurants do not have choices that fit with my type of diet. Plus, most of them don't have nutritional information posted online to ensure I make the right choices.

My coworkers sometimes push me to go to lunch even after I turn them down. I know I'm not the only one in this situation. How can I deal with this without revealing the details of my diet? Or do I need to suffer the embarrassment of going to the restaurant and only ordering no-calorie drinks?
