Most annoying things people assume.

That if I am in a bad mood it is because I am hungry. Sometimes, yes, that's it. However, sometimes I am in a bad mood because people do really stupid *kitten* and it irritates me.0
-
That I can't possibly get enough protein....
As a vegetarian, I agree with this one...x100.
Also, that I must be extremely lazy or stuff my face 24/7 because I'm a fat vegetarian. Also, another big one is that because I'm overweight and married to a soldier, that I'm probably a "dependapotamus". That one probably bothers me more than any other stereotype. :explode:
I've also been told I was mistaken for being b!tchy or a snob just because I'm insanely shy and socially awkward at first. I'm one of the most laid-back and friendly people I know, so I really regret letting my social anxiety make me seem otherwise!0 -
That I had weight loss surgery to "take the easy way out" or to avoid diet and exercise. I have to count calories, weigh/measure food intake and exercise daily to keep the weight coming off and once I get it off, I will have to do that the rest of my life to keep it off, JUST LIKE EVERY OTHER PERSON ON THE PLANET WHO IS SUCCESSFULLY LOSING AND KEEP IT OF. Weight loss surgery is a tool not a magic wand.0

That because I'm 23 and at University and don't drink that I'm missing out on the oh-so-essential "Student Experience".0

That overweight people are unhealthy...this is so ridiculous - but this assumption is made all the time.
The thinnest people I know are undergoing chemo...not exactly healthy. Healthy is MORE than a number on a scale or a dress size people. I know a lot of thin smokers...NOT HEALTHY.0 -

Forgot my MFP annoyance.
People on the general diet and weightloss area that assume if a person logs 1200 calories than their body has defied all physics and gained 15 pounds from "starvation mode" and/or put on 15 pounds of muscle in one month by "replacing the fat with muscle"
Defo This^^^^^^0 -
That because I'm 23 and at University and don't drink that I'm missing out on the oh-so-essential "Student Experience".
This too. i'm 20 and clubbing and drinking just doesn't interest me,0 -
That i'm just "naturally thin". Uhm, maintaining nearly the same size since I was 16 yrs old (I'm now going on 30) REQUIRES A LOT OF WORK AND BEING VERY CONSCIENTIOUS. (at least for me.)
I could EASILY be three sizes bigger. I just simply don't allow it to happen. I *hate* it when someone says "I wish I was naturally thin like you..."0 -
That because I'm tall I can "carry my weight well". :grumble:0

That boobs + red hair = promiscuous skank0

That boobs + blonde hair = stupid.0

I'm vegan so I must automatically be protein and calcium deficient.
I'm blonde so I must be stupid (swerve, my GPA is 3.8) :laugh:0 -
If you lift heavy weights doing less reps you will bulk up. You should be doing light weights with more reps...Uh huh...0

Most annoying things:
1. people who eat a bunch of junk food and assume if they go to the gym for 20 minutes once every 3 weeks, it's burned off (my sister does this and wonders why she's still not losing and yes I've tried to help)
2. guys who think because I have kids I'm easy
3. if you're irish you must be an alcoholic (my bf's excuse for drinking. BTW he's French too)
4. that green tea pills or any type of "weight loss" fad is the miracle everyone's been waiting for
5. because im independent and don't take someone's crap, I'm a ***** (that one could be true) lol
I hate too when I say I'm a certain weight and someone says "oh wow me too" when clearly they are bigger than you. My sister does this. I said I was 194 She was 192. I said I was 190 she was 190. I said I was 186 she's 184. She's SOOO not though.0 -
That I want their company.0
