Care to speculate on the lady's motivation?

We decided on Pizza Hut for dinner. I ordered 2 fettuccine. The lady started arguing with me to order a family sized fettuccine.
“But there are only two of us!”
Then she said “I can eat a (family sized) pan by myself!”
She said it like 3 times.
Finally I said “Well maybe YOU can but I sure as hell can’t! I can’t even eat a whole individual serving. I can only eat about half of it, if that.”
And she kept carrying on about how many bread sticks that came with the family sized (8) vs “only 2” with the individual portions.
I have never heard someone obsess over portion sizes like that! What was up with that?

In the end we got the family size. I assume it was a better deal because bulk usually is, but I don’t know for sure because she never once mentioned price, only portion sizes.
I ate about 1/8th of the fettuccine, and 1½ bread sticks and I was SO done!
