The Next Person Who Says

"Hi"

"You don't look healthy. Maybe you should stop trying to lose any more weight."
Right. Anybody without a spare tire surely must be sick, since nobody would ever lose a fair amount of weight on purpose.
For the first time in many years I'm back in the normal weight range for my height and people think I'm getting too thin.0 -
"I wish I had your genes" What, the "watch and log what I eat gene", or the "work my *kitten* off in the gym" one?0

"you're not still trying to lose are you?" I am so sick of this comment when I chose a healthy option for a meal....
You won't believe how many times I've been asked that since I started maintaining. I don't know if it's because I wear clothes that fit me a lot better now, or what the deal is, but it seems like I get asked this at almost every family gathering or whenever someone I only see intermittently comes over to my house. Even though I haven't intentionally lost a single pound since the beginning of June.
When the question is asked to me, though, it's more like "Are you STILL losing weight?" which sort of implies that I'm doing something that I've taken it too far and am still actively losing like I have an ED or something. I swear to God, I want people to stop saying anything about my weight or the way I look, because I'm sick of it. It was sorta cute and flattering back when I was losing, but now it's just like STFU. I think next time I'll ask in response, "You're not still trying to gain, are you?"
I love this "You're not still trying to gain, are you?", I'm going to have to use it :bigsmile:0 -
"Hi"
Your responses bring me way too much joy. :laugh:0 -
"Congratulations on your weight loss...keep it up!" No ****, do you think that I think that I'm done??? I'm still fat! Can't we just leave it at congratulations????
I say "keep it up" and "keep going" in comments on my news feed all the time. It's meant purely as motivation. Giving dozens of people positive feedback everyday these are just simple "go to" comments.
Does this really bother people?
It does me but then again some of these other things people are talking about don't bother me.0 -
"dont worry your pretty little head over it"0
-
"What's your secret" as if I am hoarding some magic weight loss pill
Tell them "Tobasco enemas and mainline cocaine".0 -
Yolo makes me want to throttle a millennial...but "props" is short for "propa respects" really grinds my gears. Especially when its said in a professional setting or by any caucasian person. What are we, wanna-be thugs? Do I have my pants hanging around my *kitten*? Am I selling drugs? Am I making a new rap album? Do I have gold teeth? Am I driving a cadillac with 26" rims? NO I AM NOT. Now let me get my nine and pop a cap in the *kitten* of the next fool cracka who says "props".0

"Don't worry, the vagina can really stretch". I hate that one.0

"dont worry your pretty little head over it"
this is a poorly worded compliment. Probably by a male much older than you, yes? It could be worse, you could be a dude. No one ever give two ****s about us at work.0 -

:noway:
I won't even touch that, it's just not worth it.
However it did make me think of another one... the next person who says... "I'm not racist but _____" or "I don't mean to sound racist but ____" or any variation thereof.0 -
"Just one won't hurt"
"What, are you on a diet?!"
Really chafes my *kitten*. The first one, I agree that one won't necessarily cause any regressions, but it NEVER stays with just one. The second one, yes, we are all on "diets". Your diet is the food you eat, my diet is just healthier.
"Like" :laugh:0 -
This conversation with female friends when they see me in my gym clothes...
"You look great! I really want to tone up ... What sort of things do you do? Running?"
"Sometimes, just to mix up my cardio a bit, but I mostly do strength training."
"Like crunches?"
"Well, yeah, but also lots of weights and--"
"Ohhh, well, I really don't want to get bulky. You should be careful with that. It's not a good look for women."
Firstly, you have no idea what my goals are. I'm not trying to bulk up, but so what if I was? Secondly ... oh, just ... *facepalm*
Also, when people find out I'm a classically trained singer...
"Wow, awesome! Isn't that Jackie Evancho/Susan Boyle/[insert latest reality show classical crossover artist here] amazing? Have you ever thought about going on one of those shows?"
Don't even.0 -

"That's so Epic" or "It's so surreal" UGH! Do they really know what those words mean?0

"It is what it is...", deserves a throat punch!
HAHA.. this is my motto, I say it all the time. SORRY!!!
Me too! I say this when I'm bored with what I'm hearing. It's my "nothing else to say to you" saying :laugh:0 -
"I haven't seen 'em in a minute"...... I HATE IT, I HATE IT, I HATE IT!!!! :noway: I have told a client who said this to me, "Well if you see them in the next minute will you tell them to call me!" They NEVER get it!0

"you're a guy - weight loss is easy for you" is going to get punched in the head.
What's your "the next person that says"?
Boy, I need glasses. I read, "You are gay - weight loss is easy for you".0 -
You just have to stay away from carbs.0
-
"You don't need to lose anymore weight!"
^seriously, can't agree more!!0 -
"One pound = one pound" as a response when someone says muscle weighs more than fat.0
-
"you need to eat more" -_-0
-
"Can you eat that?" "Can you have that?"
I know what I can eat... shut the hell up!!0 -
"Oh, you're trying to lose weight/body fat? You should stop eating [specific food]"
0 -
totally unrelated to weight loss but I HATE when someone says "Oh you just wait until.....(fill in blank ex. you get engaged, married, get pregnant, have a baby, have 2 kids, your kids are teenagers...the list goes on)" I hate hate hate it.0
-
"Don't worry, the vagina can really stretch". I hate that one.
