The most annoying 'compliment'?

Great thread! I hate when people tell me ...

" You need to eat a cheeseburger or ten! "
" How much more weight are you going to lose?? You'll blow away!! "
" I wish I was as dedicated as you but I just can't because of BLAH BLAH BLAH "

I weigh 123 and am 5'7". Totally acceptable for my height...so no, I don't need to eat 10 cheeseburgers. I eat a TON, and usually around 1900 cals a day (I do eat a semi-vegetarian diet, though). And I HATE OTHER PEOPLE'S EXCUSES!! Don't bash ME for my lifestyle just cause you don't want to change yours!

My least favorite compliment is "You don't need to lose weight, you look good."

I mean, it's nice. It's meant well. And thanks and stuff.

But it's up to me to decide if I want to lose a few pounds, not them!

Even worse is when it happens as they're pushing cupcakes or cookies at you. Or they insist the cupcakes they brought to potluck only have 100 calories, but you can look at the little snacks and tell that they have more than that. I can't log on hearsay, buster!!

While using the aeroglider at my dad's house a few days ago... I meantioned I have lost 10 pounds. Someone responded "you have no hips now. You're going to be one of those skinny *****es with no curves and I'm going to throw donuts at you."


Can't please everyone...

You're wasting away to nothing.

Really because if that is the case then nothing is a whole lot more like something...

not really a compliment... but my 'best friend' didnt want me to diet because she was finally smaller than me after I had put on 10kilos and she had lost a couple.

Safe to say that didnt stop me and she doesnt compliment me on how much I have achieved now.

BUMP!

Well you have lost the weight. But can you keep it off?

Or "You look so much younger". Then followed by I didn't mean you used to look old.
