AIBU?

To be annoyed I get given less food because the cook thinks I need to lose weight?

We have catering on site and the lady who serves it (2 days a week) always gives me less than my colleagues. On other days a different lady serves and I get the same amount.

She's very slim and always talking about diets etc. I need to lose weight and it's very noticeable that she agrees when she serves up my food. It's a set menu e.g. I'll be given two sausages and one scoop of mash) and my colleagues would get three sausages and two mash.

I know it sounds petty but I am just as hungry as they are!!

She came into the staff room about 5 hours after lunch and I was having a snack and she said "you're not eating again"Shock as if I couldn't possibly be hungry after the tiny meal she gave me.
Then yesterday I was eaten a homemade biscuit given to me as a thank you and she saw me and said "I've seen you" like I had been caught doing something wrong.

AIBU to be annoyed she is treating me noticeably differently? I pay the same as everyone else! It's a small environment so can't really complain.

AIBU?

I have only had desert served by her. I got the standard, regular portion so I can't complain although 2 colleagues got double serving of same desert.
Next week I am taking my phone down to photograph!

That's a great idea! She shouldn't get away with giving people more or less depending on what she thinks is they should have.

Did she give you a look? The more I think about this the less I think you should care - what a little life she must have.

Yes take a photo of yours and other peoples' meals. She may stop doing it without you needing to complain once she sees you collecting evidence

Seriously unprofessional behaviour. She is discriminatory and exercising judgement where none is required of her.
