(feel free to delete this topic if it's a duplicate!)

so what are some of your pet peeves? doesn't have to be just weight loss/fitness related but i have noticed lately that ever since i started eating healthy and working out that i have become more judgmental of people who arent't! My biggest pet peeve right now is anytime I see someone posting how they desperately want to lose weight but "don't know how cook or don't like healthy foods" Learn to cook! Try different healthy foods! People trying to use lame excuses just really irks me lol

    I can't say I have one. Life is just too short and I like to focus only on the things that fuels my soul with happiness. :)
  • i'm a bartender, and it's EXTREMELY difficult with my weird schedule and late night lifestyle (also, the fact that i'm always in a bar or restaurant) to eat healthy and workout and i'm trying so hard to do it! so today when this woman and her husband came in, and she told me she's had FIVE heart attacks and that she learned to cook with less salt to prevent more, drinks vodka like it's water and scarfs the (extremely salty) chex mix on the bar like there's no tomorrow, i wanted to smack her! next thing she tells me is that her husband is diabetic, as he orders one after another of whiskey and seven up. -____-

    Body odor. Is it so hard to shower, or wear something to cover it up? Same with horrid breath.
  • also: (sorry i have LOTS of pet peeves)

    when you say "no thanks" to some candy or chips or what-have-you and then people get all weird on you and start being passive aggressive because you aren't joining in the thing they already feel bad about doing. or when you go "oh no, i'm trying to stay away from super carby things right now" or something and then you get the "BUT DON'T YOU LIKE BREAD?????" response or the "OH I COULDN'T LIVE WITHOUT _____________________!!!!" and it's like "do you honestly think i'm doing it because i don't LIKE bacon sandwiches and french fries or because maybe i'm trying to watch what i eat in spite of liking eating the bad stuff?" hmmmmm

    right???

    That annoys the hell out of me too.

    Pet Peeve of the day

    people saying they are okay with being morbidly obese. I am morbidly obese and I know that is a straight up LIE!...I don't enjoy it and know the pains of it, so I know they are saying they do just so they don't need to be healthier...

    is this honestly bad of me?

    I work retail so I have about a million but the main ones are people that like to go in the fitting room a nd leave the clothes they try on wadded in balls on the floor but hang the hangers on the hooks and people who seem to think I'm rainman and can spout prices (complete with tax) on a whim. Also women who have accidents in the fitting room and don't say anything leaving the nasty surprise behind. More than once ive reached down to pick up a garment from the floor only to find its urine soaked. Or worse. So disgusting.

    I hate when I am at a sales store and people walk up to me and ask me if I work here? I just stare at them and say " Do I look like I have a name tag or red vest on, like all the other workers here." IT DRIVES ME NUTTERS!!!

    People with bad form on squats trying to do the most weight possible. Snap city intro in t-minus 5.

    Trainers who know less about nutrition or weight lifting than me trying to tell me old info.

    The whole meal-prep obsession that is all over the net. People act like it's some kind of trophy or something, or shun you if you don't practice prep. Honestly chicken breast tastes alright at best fresh, no way in hell I'm going to prep out a weeks worth so I can have dry *kitten* 3 day old chicken tittie.

    People who say "You're on a diet and you're eating that?". Having no clue my cals, macros, diet plan or eating style.

    Anyone who mentions diet soda and cancer in the same sentence

    People who try and ego-lift next to me, usually only teens.

    People who accuse every in shape person of being on gear

    People who say "that's a lot of weight. How much is that?" even though it's right there on the bar...okay that one is not that bad, but pretty funny to me.

    The trainer at my gym who keeps accusing me of dropping the weights when I do dead-lifts even though I have 2 yoga mats under the weight and try to lower the weight as slow as possible. Oh yea *kitten*-hole let me slowly lower 400 ^^**^ pounds.

    In shape people who look down on out of shape people. Like seriously?

    People who get on a piece of equipment and half-*kitten* on the ohone and crap. One lady was on the leg-curl machine for 10 mins straight. She literally was doing 3 reps, pausing looking around, doing more and stopping to look around ARGH

    People who ask me if I weigh my food and then talk crap when I tell them yea, "Oh that's too anal Joe I couldn't do that". My reply usually goes: Well that's probably why you look the way you look huh?

    People who say they hate drinking water. Come on son. All people need water, and if you're exercising a lot and not drinking water I don't even know what to tell you.

    People who claim you can spot-target fat

    People who claim to have gained 10 lbs of lean muscle in their first few weeks of training I hear that one a whole lot.

    and last but not least, people who don't know *kitten* about turtles.

    wooh-sah, wooh-sah.

    right???

    it's crazy how often this happens, especially with coworkers! it annoys me when people deliberately try to get me to quit my "diet" by giving me tips like "you should be able to eat anyhting you want!" all they can think about is food, they dont even take into consideration the type of crap ingredients that go into fast food

    is this honestly bad of me?

    I don't like to talk about it with people i know really because it is SUCH a touchy subject (see topic fat girl who likes being fat)
    but it also really bothers me when people say they like being obese because i can't figure out what is so great about it??

    Bad table manners - as in, people who eat really loudly, chew with their mouth open, slurp drinks / soup, belch, eat too fast, etc. I cannot stand the sound of people eating, generally. It's disgusting.

    Other than that... just obnoxiousness I guess. lol

    Lmao

    this happens to me a lot. unsure why. all the stores. thankfully never at the nightclub restrooms, lol.

    In other news I did it to a lady recently at Chipotle who reached over from behind me to grab a pepper shaker off my table while mumbling something in this crowded loud place. I started handing her my emptied bowl from the salad I'd just finished when she raised her hand against it in objection..."Oh, no I don't work here". I didn't check what she wore...all I know is I'm eating and someone's little hand comes in from behind onto my table I'm thinking it's a worker cleaning up. She was royally offended in her high heels and office attire. By my SAHM azz in casual sandals and skinny jeans. LOLZ. Don't reach onto my table when I'm eating or I'll put you to work!

    The Gym i go to is not that well equipped but its cheap sop cant complain. However the use of phones in gym i think should be banned. I hate people that hog machines and as you say gawp at other people or sit their chatting to their mates.
