"Oh, you're working out? Cool. What do you do? Just that? 30DS, running and pilates? That doesn't seem like it's enough for you."
"You should try this _____ diet, it's like really good and you'll lose SOOOOOO quick."
Person: There's something different about you.
You: Really? I didn't think anyone was going to notice.
Person: Yeah you look really different.
You: *waiting to hear it, ready for the moment, smile's about to come out*
Person: You changed your hair. (Nope.)
FFFUUUUUUUUU.
Have many more, just thought I'd start it off.

A lady asked me what it was doing for workouts the other day and I listed off everything I do and I do a minimum of 30 minutes but most times it's closer to an hour....
And she said... That's cute, that's usually what I do after my workouts when I'm just killing time...
I always get people telling me what other diet I should be doing... If I ask it's one thing...but I'm never asking....
Or the just this pizza won't hurt..... Or ice cream or cupcake.. Etc...0 -
You're not doing the _________ diet are you? Cause you know that doesn't work. Trust me!
(Says this while drinking a Pepsi and snacking on a butterfinger while a frozen Cheeseburger is defrosting in the microwave)0 -
"you dont need to lose any weight, you look fine"
"*kitten* calorie counting, lets go drinking"0 -

Yes! Especially this! Everyone always has an opinion about diets.
Back when I was doing Atkins a former co worker told me EVERY day about how I was killing myself because the Atkins diet killed Dr Atkins... Blah... No it didn't!0 -
"What are your secrets?!"
OH AND " Oh come on splurge!" When I simply don't want to.0 -
Are you really going to eat that?
((for me, that messes me up so bad))0 -
Lol I almost feel like I don't have to write anything you guys hit it on the head. Don't forget "You're supposed to eat back all of your calories and since you're not you're starving your body of the nutrients it needs." And what about, "Back when I was fat, I had a similar problem, but it'll pass." Ummm....did they just call me fat?0

"It must be sooo easy for you. You've got great genes. I actually have to work for it. It's sooo not fair!" :sick:
(This from someone sitting on her butt all day drinking Slim Fast shakes and eating chocolate donuts, while I've watched calories and worked my butt off.)0 -
most common statements after I answer what I am doing (staying within my calories and walking, swimming or going to the gym
.. "oh, I should do that too but I like food"
wtf, so do I and I eat all the time.
I get a little tired of how much I have lost being brought up every single time I see the same people. annoying but I take it in stride.
can you have that? I love this one - not
oh you can skip the gym, don't be so obsessed.
at the store tonight: oh she counts calories on everything. that was my husband to the stocker in the yogurt aisle. yay me.0 -
My boss had one of her family members (who doesn't even know me) ask her, "What is that Brittany girl doing to lose weight?!", kinda making it sound like I'm doing something other than working my butt off for it.
"Bet you'd like to have a piece of this, huh? :laugh:" -__-0 -
You should plan for Lipo, those fat cells are just waiting to fill back up again.

My former boss who I hadn't seen in a while said ohhhhh you got SO fat!!!!!
And I said.. Um I actually lost 35 pounds..... But thanks 0 -
Lol!!!!!!!
What an *kitten*!0 -

Yeah my former boss said the same thing to me! "Wow, you've gotten a lot fatter since I last saw you" and I'm like B*TCHPLZZZZ0 -
Lol!!!!!!!
What an *kitten*!
Lol yes she is!! This is one of the nicer things she ever said to me... SO glad to not be working there anymore0 -
If I genuinely am not in the mood for a certain treat or whatever is being offered and I politely say no, it automatically becomes an issue with a lot of people. That drives me absolutely crazy and I swear they then make it their mission to make me feel guilty or harass the hell out of me.0

I get told " don't lose too much more weight - you're looking good". Except I'm still classed as obese. LOL.0

What?!:noway:
Too bad their brain cells never filled up...0 -
wow... amazing what some people actually say!
MANY of my family member shove food in my face and say "hmmmm... so good, oh common, one serving isn't going to kill you" and basically pressure you into eating it.
Other than that not many people have said anything bad really and my family is really supportive and encouraging.0 -
"But... you look fine right now"
I don't want to look "fine"! I want to look AND feel great!!0 -
There is the obvious...How are you losing the weight?
The OMG I didn't recognize you!!!...which always feels good to me.
I'm morbidly obese still and I've been told I'm getting so skinny...WHAT?!!!!:noway:
I admit none of those are bad at all...I mean I've had a few not even notice the difference...or pretend they didn't. It doesn't really bother me either way...but that last one about getting skinny made my eyes pop out of my head...seriously?! LOL
ETA: The "Should you be eating that" really ticks me off...and makes me want to eat more! Just to prove I can...for some stupid reason!0 -
"You have such a nice face, maybe if you skipped a meal you'd lose weight everywhere else."0

Smack a hoe. (For real though you have like one of those classically beautiful faces)0 -
"You're looking TOO thin!!"
(I'm still over 200 lbs, believe me, I'm not too thin, lady)
"You should do ___________"
(I cannot tell you how many times I hear various different ridiculous suggestions and advice. Some eh and so so to really flat out ridiculous and dangerous. Some people think they know everything about weight loss, yet somehow they themselves are 300+ pounds. Amusing)0 -
"Whey? That stuff is steroids! Why are you taking that!?"
And
"You don't need to lose weight. You look okay."
Pls, you make fat jokes all the time and then when I show initiative I'm all of a sudden not hambeast status. At least be consistent.0 -

UGH! I hate that! That makes me so mad!0 -

My mom will in one breath tell me I'm fat and in the second breath make me taste her french fries. If I don't its a problem. She doesn't like to make bad food choices alone so she'll force feed you. -_-0 -
"You must be really jealous that I can eat this pizza!"
nope, I'm not0
