Tell them all about how your slim shake/miracle pill/only eat red things on Thursday/goats blood diet is way more effective than their 'eat well and exercise' plan
"Something something shake weight/ab roller/fat magnets"0 -
Tell them you are on a 500 calorie diet.0
-
tell them how you are just going to do tons of cardio and eat nothing......
yeah we all know where that gets us0 -
By being fat0
-
Talk to that person while he/she's in the middle of a set. :P0
-
By telling them that you ran farther, lifted more, worked out for longer, ate less, ate better ... you know, the whole "that's so great you did that buuuuut" and then you say you did better.
hahaha so annoying!0 -
Catch the lift and go one floor.0
-
Tell them what you learned from Dr. Oz/Gillian McKeith0
-
Whinge about being over weight while you stuff cookies in.
Complain that you've eaten "nothing" and not lost any weight.
Say you've been working out "all week" and the scale has gone up so it must be muscle gain.0 -
My co-worker asks me daily "Are you going to workout?" I find this really annoying. YES! I'm working out! I workout daily! Grrrrrr0
-
Use the word "Toned". It's very annoying.0

Haaaaaaa, I love the comments so far!
My personal favourites:
- "but why are you lifting weights? You'll get all manly" - RAAAAR OH MY GOD I WANT TO USE MY NEWLY-ACQUIRED STRENGTH TO BEAT YOU TO A BLOODY PULP
- "you exercise loads; your diet doesn't matter" - er...it matters even more, actually
- cardio is evil/strength training is evil/carbohydrates are evil/etc etc etc Opinions are like arseholes; everyone's got one
- anyone but ANYONE who is a special genetic snowflake who gives a healthy lifestyle a shot for approximately 17 seconds and haven't lost half their bodyweight in that time. Yeah, it's your thyroid rather than McDonalds. Sure.
- peeps who talk on the phone whilst gently nudging the crosstrainer, or nearly going back in time on the treadmill. I tell you what, give me your £40 a month and I'll happily poke you with a stick periodically.0 -
Give them LOTS of advice, opposite of what they are doing. Use the phrases "that's a myth" and "you wont see results" repetitively...

Oooh, also, also: "muscle weighs more than fat".
SWEET BABY JESUS.0 -
Ask them questions , then answer them yourself, and incorrectly .,,,.0
-
Muscle weighs more than fat
Women get all bulky and gross
High Rep, low weight
No CARBS!!
And my personal favorite.....
Do lots of sit-ups for a flat belly :explode:0 -
tell them you dont eat sugar cos of too much sugar
ask them if theyre worried about getting fat from eating peanut butter0 -
Wow! i am learning lots from this thread! Great fitness advice everyone!0
-
oh, I forgot.... I have lots of loose skin (says the 40 lb overweight woman)0
-
do curls in the squat rack
do squats in the curl rack
don't wipe the sweat off machines/benches when you are done
grunt loudly during all exercises
sing loudly while listening to music
edit: I just realized all of mine apply to the gym >.>0 -
Saying "I just can't eat that early" or "I'm just not hungry in the morning" as an excuse for not eating breakfast
I'm not always hungry when I get up in the morning, but I'll still have something to get my body going...
oh, and at the gym, the guys who sit or stand around the weights machines talking or just watching others working out - are you actually going to do something or just stare at everyone else??0 -
Bring donuts to the office and then ask why I'm not having any when they know I'm not eating crap anymore.0
-
Make up your own exercise0
-
The word TONING, or when they ask me how many ABS exercises I do (10 mins a week).0
-
Take their lifelong dream, that they've dedicated years too, sacrificed blood sweat and tears for... and tell them you're genuinely concerned you'll achieve it by accident.0
-
Take one of the most sought after pieces of equipment in the gym, and use it for an exercise there are dozens of other more suitable options for.0
-
Being asked "are you allowed to eat this with your diet?".
I can eat whatever I want, i'm not on a diet! I just don't WANT to eat that crap food you are offering.0 -
Someone asking me for advice, telling me how they are tired of being out of shape. I offer advice, help them get started and then it goes for a day or maybe two.0
