Apparently my life boring because don't eat much junk food?

I've lost a lot of weight, I'm down nearly 100lbs and I've leaned out well.

A few people at work have commented it, I don't really like talking about it much but I was asked "how did you do it, I'm guessing lots of cardio?" So I told them not really, just cut out a lot of junk food and stuck to a calorie budget

In-between lectures about "starvation mode" (I fucking hate it when people say starvation mode is a real thing) I get asked what exactly do I eat. I scrolled through MyFitnessPal with them, lots of chicken, vegetables, etc

"What no pizza?!"

"No takeout food?!"

Then they said something that a lot of people have said to me but for some reason it just stuck with me

"I don't think I could do it, your life must be so boring"

Eating probably takes up 30-40 minutes of my day! How the fuck can you assume I'm boring because for less than an hour a day I try to eat well?

I hear it a lot "I would like to diet but I want to enjoy my life" so your only enjoyment in life is food? I can't wrap my head around it
