    It's called flexible dieting.

    Wait, is this a diet that has been discussed with your doc?
    I'd go HIPAA on his butt. All day long.

    So much of this, assuming the OP is in USA and protected by HIPAA

    Actually I am so confused by this post. OP's doctor, his wife, instructor, etc...how are all of these people connected? And why is this allowed to continue? I would be like, um no these people are way too much in my business and would break those ties and find new providers with appropriate behavior and boundaries.

    this reminds me of a clip i saw of the singer wendy o. williams getting kicked off a talk show for saying ice cream is bad for you. (it is by the way). Some people are way too blunt but at the end of the day, she was right. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=idpkBfAv7uc

    You didn't read the OP's post did you?

    Reader's Digest Condensed Version:

    She stated that she and her doctors wife started going to the same class at the gym together. Dr Wife saw her at the supermarket buying ice cream and made a comment. The next day in class she told the instructor about it and apparently everyone else in class overheard thus prompting the bashing.

    And OP_ stand you're ground (obviously you are) that's totally inappropraite and I would just continue to sacrastic the hell out of them.

    My usual go to is
    " I can dead lift- 300 pounds.... can you??"

    "I'm going to the bathroom at 3 PM for my usual *kitten*- I'll make sure I have a full write up for you since you seem overly concerned with what goes in- I figured you want to know what comes out"

    Or
    "I'm sorry I don't recall asking you to give you're own personal and inappropriate commentary on my personal food diet"

    you have a range- you can kind of work from least offensive to most offensive depending on how aggressive the busybody is.
    I have no tolerance or patience for that type of rubbish.

    Your responses are always dead on.

    Why do some people feel they have the right to get up all in your business? I get this on all sides, people feel they need to justify what they eat in front of me (I don't give a rat's *kitten*), if I turn down something "bad", I get, "but you're so skinny, you can eat anything" or if I indulge, I get, "hmmmm, are you going to eat that?", I'm gonna eat the hell out it.

    Now I want some ice cream.

    Move to London. Everyone would be too shy to engage you in conversation and share your personal information even if you whispered, "I just murdered my neighbour."

    :laugh:

    yeah in London the reply to that would be "um... that's nice"...

    I could think of a choice location to have shoved the pointy end of that ice cream cone.

    I think he said it was his wife's doctor.

    How is what you put in your shopping basket any of her business? Some people are just beyond annoying!

    P.S. I also love the OP's profile picture, describes me well :laugh:
