Most annoying things people assume.

1. That if you are skinny, you are either a) genetically lucky to be skinny, or b) must be eating lettuce leaves and rice cakes and are starving all the time.

2. You can be either miserable and thin OR fat and happy.

And the most annoying assumption EVER:

3. If you are thin, that's because YOU JUST DON'T LOOOOOOOVE FOOD AS MUCH AS THEM!
That one irritates me to no end.

    My main annoyance is that anyone who doesn't work out thinks that guy can just look like a model by losing weight.

    Or

    That to be in shape you have to spend 15 hours a day in a gym and neglect every other responsibility you have.

    Forgot my MFP annoyance.

    People on the general diet and weightloss area that assume if a person logs 1200 calories than their body has defied all physics and gained 15 pounds from "starvation mode" and/or put on 15 pounds of muscle in one month by "replacing the fat with muscle"

    That I can eat so much and lose weight because my metabolism is naturally fast. Nope. It's naturally slow. Adaptive thermogenesis FTW.



    That a calorie target is something to be missed.

    By like 500.

    I stay at home so I do nothing all day
    I must have an endless amount of patience because I homeschool
    I want to babysit your kids since I stay home and do nothing anyway
    I lift weights so I can be huge and bulky
    I must be a 49er or Raiders fan since I'm in CA

    That size eleven equals obese.

    When people assume that the 6" 7' guy fat guy is the mental equivalent of barney the dinosaur. Also when people assume that because I am naturally strong that I don’t enjoy intellectual pursuits. Or that because I have a semi hulking appearance that im mean or intimidating.

    Those three probably annoy me the most.

    When stupid people talk to you and assume that you are as stupid as they are. Its like two idiots arguing with each other. Of coarse maybe I am assuming that person is as stupid as I am. :laugh:

    That I'm a push over because I avoid confrontations. Got me in trouble a couple of times at work. :mad: I avoid confrontations not because I'm a push over, I avoid confrontations because I'm an *kitten* when I get angry, Mr Hyde awakes and things get ugly.

    That only overweight people have health problems. (There are plenty of THIN people who have health problems, it's not just overweight people!)

    That if you're thin, you must be fit. (Thin people can be flabby!)

    That every overweight person is fat because they eat like pigs. (NOT TRUE!!! There are many different factors/situations that can contribute to weight gain.)

    That because it's obvious that I lost weight people assume I should weigh 100lbs. When I tell them I'm 140, they look at me like "wow, she's good at hiding the weight".....

    It's called LIFTING, you ignorant d!ck.
