    Since I started "dieting" it annoys me when people...offer unsolicited advice, especially from:

    A. Those who have never been fat: You don't know how it is to be fat, so STFU!
    B. Those who have been fat all their lives: Your advice hasn't worked for you, so STFU!

    Annoys me when someone sees me with a Starbucks and they think I am no longer counting calories - IIFYM!! :drinker:

    and

    When they walk in my office to offer me muffins, cakes, candy, etc., then give you the stupid look! The "I know you are not going to eat it but I want to tempt you anyway" look, LOL!!

    I hate when people analize what I am currently eating.....trust me I know what I can and can't have and every needs to splurge once in a while.

    I don't eat an entire bag of M&M's I will have 4...and they fit in my macros for the day or I wouldn't be eating them.

    I hate when friends that know what I am doing invite me to go out to dinner at a place like 5 guys...really!!!! Don't sabatoge me!:noway:

    My husband annoys me more when I am dieting and he tells me to just "push down the hunger" and then goes on to say how he doesn't "need to eat" and how he has trained his body to not react to hunger.

    Next time he's feeling romantical, you can tell him to just 'push down his sex drive' because you've trained your body not to react to it.

    Oh there's very little hate in my relationship with Five Guys. That's why I only go there about 3 times a year.

    People probably think your crazy to say that a family member would try to intentionaly sabotage your diet, but it happens all the time at my house. It used to be that their best weapon was a package of Oreo cookies and fresh glass of milk. Now its more subtle.

    On the topic of significant others, it annoys me that I order my nice little salad with the occasional grilled chicken on top with light dressing....and my boyfriend orders the triple baconator and large fries and tea. :grumble: I'm like really? I just want him to care about himself like I do!!!! But I'd never say that to him, I love him how he is... just slightly annoying.

    Edited because I can't type today apparently.

    I usually just shrug it off politely and change the subject whenever I can. Ive learned that people usually translate what you say into something you didn't. But there are a few totally unfiltered and unchecked individuals that Ive talked to that just don't get the hint. I got totally fed up with one person and told her that I lost the 170 lbs. with Yoga. Yoga! Really? Yes, Yoga.... Its amazing how much weight you can lose by tying your neck in a knot. She raised her eyebrows in a quizzical look and said I don't think I could do that. I told her the only limitations we have are those we put on ourselves, have a good day. I had a good laugh at her expense and that was wrong of me, but I don't suffer fools gladly.

    I hate it that my grandma gets mad I won't eat her butter soaked vegetables because she just ruined them...

    I hate it when I plan my meals and then my boyfriend changes his mind and wants to go out for dinner... I wouldn't have eaten so much during the day if I knew we were going out dumb @ss

    I hate it when my co-workers have cake and other things for their birthdays and make comments about "oh of course Emily's not eating any"... If I wanted the d@mn cake I'd eat it, I make the decisions about what I eat... but sometimes it's just easier to say no thank you then to try and fit it in my day...

    I live a few hours from home so when I visit recently I've shrunk needless to say. Each and everytime my gradnmother(who is a big lady) will comment on how tiny I am, I didn't need to lose weight and I really don't need to now or I will shrink. I love her dearly but geeesh woman, I was 200lbs at 5'7! Oh well, my goal is to hit 15% body fat before Christmas, I am in for a rant then. Lol

    They want to hear that you bottled up some leprechaun farts and take a whiff of them every morning and that majickally makes the weight just fall off. Then they can blame their weight on the fact that they can't find any gassy leprechauns, not on the fact that they lack drive.

    Oh this is good... When people ask me how I lost weight, I'm gonna use "leprechaun farts" as my magic dieting trick! :-D

    Conversation with thin girl at work:
    TG: "you still dieting?"
    Me: "yep."
    TG: "you aren't hungry all the time?"
    Me: "nope. I'm feeling pretty good, actually."
    TG: "I just ate a sweet roll. It was good."

    Alrighty then!
    Lol

    I so want to say that too! I had someone tell me to eat a cheeseburger the other day & they would drive me to a fast food place. I told them I was still 180 & wanted to lose at least 30 to forty more pounds. I definitely don't starve myself.

    When people get pissed off, personally offended or act like I am being a b**** just because because I refuse to share a dessert with them or eat the food they made that is three days worth of calories. What is up with people taking other people's food choices so personally?

    Screw people. lol I hate when people say "Ew what are you eating?" or "Whats on the diet plan today?" Leave my food choices alone and shut the hell up. Or I've had people tell me "You can't do that." Like do a triathlon or scuba dive. Whatever, I'll show you.

    Or the people who say, "oh so you can eat that?" Argh!!!!!!

    I hate it when my sister in law (110 lbs) goes on and on about how 130 lb is fat and people shouldn't let themselves get that way.

    Her: 130 is fat for a woman and anyone who weighs that should know that they are too big.
    Me: I don't think so.
    Her: Really? Well how much do you weigh?
    Me: 136.
    Her: ..... oh.... Well your not fat, you look fine, must be because your tall.

    I'm 5'5" I'm only tall to her because shes barely breaking 5'. But this conversation goes on every few weeks and has for years. When it first started I weighed 188. I think she likes to point out to me that I still haven't met her 110 yet, and I never will.

    I wonder what she would say about me. I am 5' tall and 130 right now (profile pic). :laugh:

    all you have to say is that it fits your macros.

    they'll either have no idea what you're saying
    they'll preach about clean eating
    or
    they'll gain respect for you
