    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"

    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!

    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.

    My co-worker asks me daily "Are you going to workout?" I find this really annoying. YES! I'm working out! I workout daily! Grrrrrr

    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.

    Give them LOTS of advice, opposite of what they are doing. Use the phrases "that's a myth" and "you wont see results" repetitively...

    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:

    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 >.>

    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??

    Bring donuts to the office and then ask why I'm not having any when they know I'm not eating crap anymore.

    The word TONING, or when they ask me how many ABS exercises I do (10 mins a week).

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.
