    When people on diets know that I'm losing weight and say things like "should you really be eating that ice cream sundae?" Yes, yes I should.

    When I tell people I lift weights, and they exclaim "OMG you're going to get bulky and gross!"
    I just laugh usually. I explain to them that nobody got bulky lifting a couple hours a week. Those 'bulky women' you see in competitions worked their ______ off in both training and eating and they shouldn't minimize their accomplishments :)

    Agreed- but the so-called "bulk" most people refer to when they say things like that is in reference to the female bodybuilders who are almost certainly not natty.

    Either way, they are not gross. :smile:

    Educate me on a "proper diet" because they lost 4 pounds last week and I only lost 38 pounds in the last 6 months.

    Get upset when I explain how I lost weight just by reducing my calories and exercising more. Then say they're special or for women it's harder yada yada yada...

    I used to get upset about that too, but now I just tell them that I burned calories by masturbating.

    People who come to dinner parties and expect the hosts to cater to whatever their diet du jour is. "I can't (won't) eat meat/grains/sugar/fish/anything cooked beyond 114 degrees..."

    Eat it. Don't eat it. But don't expect the world to revolve around YOUR food plan.

    *standing ovation* ????????????????????

    OMG sooo much this. I worked with a couple of women on the 17 Day Diet and they were like "I did this and lost 30 lb back in January and then gained back 25 and now I'm on it again and I've lost 9 lb in the last 10 days"

    "So you are down a total of 14 lb since the beginning of the year. Not bad"

    "No I've lost 9 lb in just TEN DAYS but this diet has made me lose almost 40 lb this year"

    Meanwhile I'd been on MFP for a few months and lost about 20 very slowly. But they informed me that MFP doesn't work, because one of them logged her 17 Day Diet eating for a week and it said she would lose 1 lb and she lost 8 lb. So there!

    smh

    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?


    Not in general. But people 'on diets' do tbh

    The pizza comment was tongue in cheek.
    I knew the pizza comment was tongue in cheek. Pizza is so good.
    (not a vegetable, but damned good)

    I knew you knew. But I wanted to make sure no one was getting offended. Except someone did, but not you and me, eh?
    Indeed.

    Dang, was my sarcasm meter broken?

    Apologies.

    Weight everything on a food scale down to the gram....... Yeah I do that my fam laughs at me

    There is nothing wrong with accurately measuring your food, I've done it and had great results.

    •Ask if whatever you are eating will help then lose weight (i.e Bolthouse Farm Smoothie)

    •Agonize over the chocolate cake someone left in the break room

    •Tell you not to eat that cookie because you will magically gain back all 112 lbs

    So true! Where I work there is a confused low-carber who loves to talk about low-carb, but when I asked her how many calories she ate a day she told me that with low-carb it didn't matter how much you ate because you didn't have the carbs making you fat.

    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:

    The people who deprive themselves tend to be the ones who talk the loudest about their diets and how much they want to eat those forbidden things.
