Not seen it often ngl.
Probably the words; calories, macros, exercise, weight loss, 'loose' --> that one really grinds my gears "I need to loose weight".

Brits use it here because they say that instead of "while" when they talk out loud, it's a cultural difference. I've rarely seen anyone from North America use it.0

I've seen some pointless threads whilst (see what I did there?) I've been here.
This has to be the worst.
