Don't judge other people!! :(

Fantastic! I totally agree! It's these type of people that you are talking about that used to make me (and sometimes still do) feel uncomfortable about going to my own gym!!

hey they asked, we answer..just because you dont like the answer we give doesnt mean we are being rude.
dont come on here asking for advice if you cant take what other people say.

I absolutely agree...

This place is full of the most ridiculous threads... like "700 cals a day and not losing" etc etc.

Then people (many of whom have huge amounts of weight and clearly DO know what they are doing, or people where you can see from their pics that they practice what they "preach") give their time to advise... and all the time you can see people getting their knickers in a twist if it isn't what they want to hear.

"no dumbell is too light... no speed is too slow" etc that all sounds very nice... but THEN don't come here complaining that you don't see results!!

If you only do what you've always done, you will always get what you've always had.

it's possible that you're reading more into it than is there and, really, why do you care? the same advice that starts this conversation should end it.

why care what anyone thinks? let's say i am judging you? so, what!? why should you care what i think? you don't know me; i don't know you...

people will judge over a number of things, none of which you can control, but just remember: none of it has anything to do with YOU. that's your own head working against you.

How rude of you to come onto this thread and then try to stir drama! The thread I'm talking about was one titled something along the lines of "stupid/silly things you've seen people do at the gym".

Please, be miserable elsewhere. This is a thread asking people to STOP judging others.

are you serious? haha.. you misunderstand me.. i'm just saying you can let what others say dictate your actions, or you can keep on keepin on. i am not judging anyone at all. i hope for everyone tobe successful, always.

bests

^ ^ I heard this as well! I loved it, truly makes sense for me to not worry so much what others may or may not think of me in life. Often times I worry for nothing as they are in their own head when I'm worrying they are thinking something about me. :laugh: I appreciate what you shared, it was again a reminder that I need to simply live my life and not worry about what is going on around me so much.:flowerforyou: Each of us is likely busy doing our own thing in life and really not the focus of everyone around us. :drinker:

sometimes I eat whole grain rice.

love my Basmati & Brown rice!

I think many people just don't realize what they are saying may feel judgemental or hurtful to others. My husband tends to do this to me. He is a skinny little guy who could eat chili cheese fries for every meal and not gain a pound. He has no idea what it is like to be OBESE and struggle with your weight every day or to feel out of breath after minimal physical activity. When I would be proud of the extra long walk I took that day...he would comment on how he jogs 3miles on the treadmill as a warm-up before working out. It always made me go from YAY ME...to...UGH! But everyones bodies and goals are different. You can't compare someone who is 300lbs and trying to get to a healthy weight to someone who weighs 110 and is trying to define her abbs...

We really are different in many ways. Does a 50 year old man have the same amount of energy as as 20 year old. Or can a lady with with health problems and is only alowed to eat certain foods to keep it from getting worse keep up with a healthy teenagere with a higher metabolisim. No. Each person is different and we all need to do something different. I love getting advice from others but it does not mean I have to do it your way and its not fair to me or anyone elose when you make them feel like its your way or it just will not work out. Quit putting others down if it has to be your way just dont talk to others.
