Annoying things people on a diet do.

Here is one:

Order just a cup of tea every time you go out, than "just have a taste" and keep picking the food off your friend's plate until you eat half their fries and food from other friends as well. Pay nothing, of course. Plus, be completely convinced you skipped dinner.

    Whine about all the things they "can't" have. Yeah, you CAN have spaghetti, you just can't eat a whole pound of it, smothered in cheese and meatballs EVERY night.

    Dang. Now I'm hungry.

    Try to force everyone else to do what they are doing because "it's the right thing".

    Constantly break their diet and say "I shouldn't really be eating this..." Then complain when the diet fails.

    Go on "diets" to begin with. As with most "diets" they can't be maintained. You have to change your lifestyle. You have to change the way you think about food and how you eat. Because, diets don't work.

    When they convince themselves that living off lean cuisine and slim fast is "healthy".

    Or they look at what you're eating and make you feel guilty for eating it.

    whine about how expensive it is to eat healthy because they're getting all of their produce and meat from the organic, local, free-range section of the boutique supermarket for six times what I pay at normal stores.

    Sit down to a meal and ask me (apparently now being a weight loss guru) if each and every item on the table is "fattening" or "slimming".

    Complain when they gain the weight back. What did you expect when you started eating bread again?

    As a general irk for everyone, I hate when people point at whatever I'm eating and comment on how it "Doesn't look diet friendly." Good, because that diet thing sounds sad, whereas this is delicious *NOM*

    Complain that someone else "can eat whatever they want because it's easy for them," conveniently forgetting that that person used to be overweight.


    Ask what friend did to lose weight. When told friend counted calories, complain that that's too restrictive. Continue with Atkins/South Beach/HCG/etc.

    Get upset when I explain how I lost weight just by reducing my calories and exercising more. Then say they're special or for women it's harder yada yada yada...

    Cut out entire foof groups for no good (ie medical) reason.

    Pizza is a food group right?


    Edit. I meant FOOD not foof!

    try to convince you had delicious their boiled unseasoned chicken + plain brown rice + steamed brocolli tastes

    try to convince you that boiled and mashed cauliflower really tastes like mashed potatoes and how greek yogurt tastes like mayo.

    i want to be like "b*tch please" and send in seal team 6 to rescue their kidnapped taste buds.

    (thinking of a former coworker)

    Post photos all around their desk/cubicle of Victoria's Secret models and say things like "I'm going to look like this by my high school reunion in August" (on Jan 1st of course) while they eat a salad from Applebees with 900 cal.

    What others choose to eat annoys you?

    For me? It's when someone insists over and over that their way is the only way, and that my way can't be sustainable. And that they aren't on a diet while they measure and count and weigh every morsel.

    What you eat is your diet. :flowerforyou:

    Drives me nuts. Yes it's easier for some, but it was pretty damn hard to lose my 45 lbs :)

    Get upset when I explain how I lost weight just by reducing my calories and exercising more.
    I'm a total smartass about it actually...I lean over real close to them like it's some HUGE secret that nobody else can know an whisper in their ear, "I eat less calories and exercise more...Shh, don't tell anyone".
