    Men do like a little meat to play with. Don't you, fellas?

    So long as ist a Rib Eye or New Your Steak its fine... lol

    Im tired of hearing you cant do that!. You will never place if you do!, why do you work out so hard. ? How can you eat so much food, and not be a moose?

    All stupid questions I don't feel the need to justify to anyone.

    You shouldn't lift heavy, you'll get bulky. You should go to body pump instead

    "Oh, I could NEVER lose weight like that"....um yes you can.

    FREAKING THIS.

    I know it's not an even playing field for everyone, but this mentality about anything you want in life makes me crazy. I'm not really that special. If I can do it, you likely can too!

    Oh, another one!

    With all the cardio you do, you can afford to eat what you want

    I wish.

    Everyone always comments on the clothes I wear now that I don't wear big baggy stuff, but when I did wear the over-sized outfits they would comment on how my clothes were too big. Can't make anyone happy -_-

    Also, "Just eat it" "Just skip the gym" "It doesn't even matter you're already fit enough" all from people who don't realize that I only got this way because of dedication and consistency.

    From my male buddy who is "small".
    "I wish I could lose ten pounds, my pants are tight."
    He has been saying this to me for the last four years while I have dropped-145# on WW. But still obese BMI.
    Then he'll ask me "How are you losing weight? What do you eat?"

    But we're old, so there's that. LoL

    "One slice of cake won't make you fat, have some" erhh, no but if I cheated every time someone wanted me to I'd be 150 kg.
    "If you lose anymore weight you'll get a rat face"
    "You workout to much"

    And my personal favourite

    "You've lost all the weight, you're done. You don't have to diet or go to the gym anymore"

    "You're obsessed!" Yes, I am. And you're not, that's why you're on a downward slide but that's none of my business. In my opinion you NEED to be obsessed to get results, no matter what it is you're talking about.

    Lol not much of an ego

    "Do you want any of this (insert sugary food here). No? Are you sure? Really?" No, if I wanted it, I'd go get it, I know where it is.
    "Oh, are you supposed to eat (insert sugary food here)." Yes, if I want it, I can eat it, I know moderation.

    The sabotaging comments are what really bug me. I don't believe there's malicious intent, just people trying to make themselves feel better.

    Ditto to these plus....
    Why are you still running? You're skinny enough. That's not why I run.

    Or when other runners ask me why I lift heavy. I don't, not really, I deadlift because it helps strength my core and lower back - muscles that help with running.

    Must be nice to be so small. Being short is not something I can do anything about, but being fit is something I work on every single day with the choices I make.

    Do you eat? Yes, I probably eat more than half the people who ask me this stupid question but I don't look it because it's called moderation and hardwork.

    "You haven't given up any foods since you started losing weight? Not one?" No, man, I have managed to lose weight and keep it off while still eating all the things you think are "bad."

    Most of my friends don't say much to me any more because I'm pretty upfront about my lifestyle and they know it by now. I did have a friend who was shocked this summer because I didn't want any kale from her dad's garden. Sorry, just because I'm fit doesn't mean I live on kale (or even like it).

    I also had an acquaintance try to sell me Visalus shakes after I posted a transformation pic of myself on Facebook. Like, really? I got here without the help of your BS shakes, I obviously don't need to waste my money on it now.

    It's uncomfortable when people say it to me, but worse hearing it happen to others.

    Was with a friend the other day who's lost 40 lbs. She's still in the healthy BMI range. However, some people at the gym came up and basically told her she looked like she was wasting away and starving herself in a laughing, backhanded kind of way that was supposed to sound like a compliment. She was tactful and explained herself to them (far better than I would have done), but damn, that was uncomfortable to listen to....
