Annoying things people on a diet do.

Whine about all the things they "can't" have. Yeah, you CAN have spaghetti, you just can't eat a whole pound of it, smothered in cheese and meatballs EVERY night.

Dang. Now I'm hungry.

Constantly break their diet and say "I shouldn't really be eating this..." Then complain when the diet fails.

Tell everyone about the *fad* diet that they are on....how wonderful it is....what great results other people have gotten....And how you should do it too (share the misery).:frown:

Edit for typo

Go on "diets" to begin with. As with most "diets" they can't be maintained. You have to change your lifestyle. You have to change the way you think about food and how you eat. Because, diets don't work.

^^^^^^BINGO!!!!

whine about how expensive it is to eat healthy because they're getting all of their produce and meat from the organic, local, free-range section of the boutique supermarket for six times what I pay at normal stores.

Sit down to a meal and ask me (apparently now being a weight loss guru) if each and every item on the table is "fattening" or "slimming".

Freak out when they see how much food I can eat and lose/maintain my weight!

Complain when they gain the weight back. What did you expect when you started eating bread again?

As a general irk for everyone, I hate when people point at whatever I'm eating and comment on how it "Doesn't look diet friendly." Good, because that diet thing sounds sad, whereas this is delicious *NOM*

muahahaha this is fabulous

Complain that someone else "can eat whatever they want because it's easy for them," conveniently forgetting that that person used to be overweight.


Ask what friend did to lose weight. When told friend counted calories, complain that that's too restrictive. Continue with Atkins/South Beach/HCG/etc.

Twinsies (almost)

try to convince you had delicious their boiled unseasoned chicken + plain brown rice + steamed brocolli tastes

try to convince you that boiled and mashed cauliflower really tastes like mashed potatoes and how greek yogurt tastes like mayo.

i want to be like "b*tch please" and send in seal team 6 to rescue their kidnapped taste buds.

Cut out entire foof groups for no good (ie medical) reason.

Pizza is a food group right?


Edit. I meant FOOD not foof!

What others choose to eat annoys you?

For me? It's when someone insists over and over that their way is the only way, and that my way can't be sustainable. And that they aren't on a diet while they measure and count and weigh every morsel.

What you eat is your diet. :flowerforyou:

Drives me nuts. Yes it's easier for some, but it was pretty damn hard to lose my 45 lbs

Get upset when I explain how I lost weight just by reducing my calories and exercising more.

I'm a total smartass about it actually...I lean over real close to them like it's some HUGE secret that nobody else can know an whisper in their ear, "I eat less calories and exercise more...Shh, don't tell anyone".
