    Many people just don't want to hear the truth because it sounds mean.

    People are overweight/fat/obese whatever because the eat too much, eat junk, don't exercise and can be arsed sorting themselves out.(obviously there are exceptions but they are rare)

    One thing I have noticed is that people want a short cut, quick diet, like the pineapple diet, the apple diet, but whats the point to maintain you would have to eat apples(whatever) forever.

    Good natural food/balanced diet and an active life style it is no secret.

    I see people with the free 'obese' gym vouchers from the docs, they come once or twice then leave. I actually heard one say after walking for about 5 mins on the tread mill, this is too hard I cant be arsed and they left.

    Based on your knowledge of the Algerian Pineapple diet and your recent marriage to Ms. Michaels (I hope her partner is ok with that) perhaps these other techniques might justify what healthy eating and exercise cannot. ;)


    - Use a loofah and scrub off the dead skin cells. They're extra weight, you know. O.o

    - Chew each mouthful of food exactly 237 times. EACH mouthful of food, including ice cream and coffee. Think of all of the calories burned by all of that chewing!

    - Avoid eating foods that come in primary colors. No red, yellow, or blue foods. (No magenta, yellow, or cyan if you're talking to a artists. Red, green, and blue if your audience is well versed in light.) Secondary colors are ok and tertiary colors are the most nutritious.

    - Eating food in alphabetical order. This way, your body can process it better. Never eat zucchini before an apple. It'll get turned to fat almost immediately.

    - Only eating what you can attach to piece of string attached to a stick attached to your head. It's the carrot on the stick diet. Works wonders, is a little weird in public and makes it impossible to enjoy soup.

    Hope those suggestions are ridiculous enough. :)

    hahahahaha I love these

    Tell them you tried "losing weight and not losing your mind". The more you think about your weight, the tougher it is to lose. Think THIN....YOU ARE WHAT YOU THINK.

    lol :laugh:
  • Just tell them how YOU lost it. It's not a dumb question. We all do things a little differently and they want to know about YOU.

    For me, I started by making healthier meals and going for a 2 mile walk per day. Did that for a couple weeks with success and decided that I wanted to look into clean eating. I spent an entire month eating pretty much 100 percent clean. I was still walking during that time but I upped it to 3 miles/day. Then I took what I learned about clean eating and applied that as I began counting calories (net 1200 to 1400 day)- at the same time I upped my water to be sure I was having 8+ servings a day. And that's when I started couch to 5k. These days I log on MFP daily, try to make good food choices that will fuel my body, run or walk every day. Next up for me is a heavy weight lifting program.

    See what I mean? I'm sure my story is different than yours and I think they just want to know what your story is.

    You still ate all of your favorite junk foods, you just liquified them and consumed them as soup. Doing this helps deconstruct/reduce the caloric content and boosts the fat burning properties of your food. Proceed to ask if they want to try liquid meatloaf.

    Some great responses by everyone.
    I was going to suggest
    " i've seen the light and become a breatarian. I now get my energy from sunlight and only eat for pleasure."

    That was you can still eat in front of t hem, and it is a real religion too.

    But i do love the adipose response, it sound so close to a real WL drug.

    Someone on here said she tells people that she knows you are what you eat so she chases down skinny people and if she catches them she eats them. It was soooooooo funny when I read it :laugh:

    Tell 'em the Purina Dog Food Diet worked great for you until you stopped to scratch your ear in the middle of the street and got hit by a car.

    ^^^HAHAHAHA.... love this!

    OR you could say 'I made a deal with the devil, all he wants in return is my left testicle - so I said "what the hell!"'

    Use this...just saw this on Yahoo News...there is actually a diet called the "OMG diet." Hilarious.

    Or you could use my personal favorite answer to this question which is, "I started doing meth."

    Seriously fantastic suggestions. The wit of MFP is simply lovely.

    tell them you gave up dieting because it never works. What works is being aware of what you are eating, keeping a record with MFP, drinking water and except as a treat limit such things as soda, and any fried foods, other regular foods, plenty of vegetables and are the way to go.

    " testicular cancer" or the "P.O.W diet, developed in the 1940's". ( too soon?)
    That should shut them up.

    Or "raw food/ 5th level fruitarian ( can't eat food that casts a shadow)"
    " tree bark diet, its full of fibre and fills you up"
