How do I put this gently? I have an annoying as hell co-worker. He always has a comment to say about everything, knows everything and he consistently eats out at least twice a day.
This morning, I was eating my snack, which consisted of egg whites and a slice of turkey bacon. In comes co-worker literally looking like he's about to grab my breakfast. After he has just downed a Bojangles biscuit. He says, well Jenny I know you used to be a heavy weight but you don't have to eat healthy like that all the time, just look at me. I tried really hard not to laugh and I just smiled at him. I wanted to say, have you heard of "skinnyfat" because yes, even though he is thin, i can assure you he is by no means "healthy" Oh and did I mention he was heading to Burger King for lunch?? haha
I just have to laugh at the ignorance of people sometimes :laugh:

Can I come there and slap him? Maybe punch him? How about I dropkick him in the FACE!
What a bunghole!
You are AMAZING willywonka! TWIN to WIN!0 -
WOW!0

He'll probably change his tune after he has a heart attack from his fast-food-clogged-arteries!0

Some people just never cease to amaze me!!!0

What a bunghole!
HA, i love it. BUNGHOLE.
people like that really pee me off....0 -
it almost sounds like a backwards compliment, because he said you used to have a problem, which means he doesn't think you have one anymore.0

I would have said something like "Well, I made a lifestyle choice to get HEALTHY, and yes, I see you, you're not healthy. Maybe one day you can jump on this lifestyle change too." Then turn back around and pretend to work0

THIS! I love this response! Totally made me laugh out loud!
To OP...sorry that happened. Some people are just clueless! You look great! Keep up the good work!0 -
Wow!! Way to be supportive.0

^ This.
Or you could make a snide comment about what he chooses to eat. Turn the tables a bit.0 -
He's just jealous that you have control over your health and he does not!0

that's just crazy! And congrats on eating healthy! What always gets me are the unhelathy people that are constantly eating unhealthy -- and I eat healthy MOST of the time -- but heaven forbid I ever eat something unhealthy....then I have them ALL on my back. I just want to ask them to race me up the stairs -- and we'll see who is huffing and puffing at the top! or or a good drop kick -- then I'd run cause they'd NEVER catch me :bigsmile:0

OMG - you just described my brother! :laugh: He is in his early 50's, has never worked out a day in his life, and eats fast food a lot more than I do. Even when he eats at home, it's not healthy. And he is skinny! Hmmmm....could be the pot! :ohwell:0

I agree with this. some people just don't know how to give a compliment! Take it as one and mentally kick him in his skinny fat balls :laugh:0 -
Do we work together? Hm. Sounds like the butt I work with....0
-
Hey! Do we work at the same place?!?!!? I just got a good dose of "Negative Motivation" from a co-worker an hour ago. Assclowns........0

Rid yourself of the toxic people in your life. Most of them are fraudulent anyway, pretending to be something they aren't. Stay motivated!0

You just have to laugh at people like that. I enjoy getting diet advice from REALLY overweight or obese people like: "red wine is good for you", "it's OK to have a cheat day" or "1 slice of pizza won't kill you". Amazing!0

I would have stabbed him with a fork.0

The best revenge is living well.0

It's so hard not to be rude to people like this. grrrr!!0

We went to the beach with one of my husbands co-workers and his family the other day, and it was my first time meeting his wife. About 3 minutes after introducing ourselves, she asked me when the baby is due. I'm not pregnant. I just don't understand why people feel the need to say anything at all, ever. If the food isn't going into his mouth, he needs to keep his thoughts to himself. It's not affecting him in the least. If you don't know a woman is pregnant or not, don't say anything. People just appall me sometimes.0
-
negative people such as him are no good ... you doing good ... keep it up ... i got a couple of co workers like that also ...0

Just be pleasant and tell him you are happy with your healthy choices.
You won't change him, and you do want a pleasant working environment.
He probably thinks he was being pleasant, and if he is told you are happy eating healthy food, may believe you and not bother you. If he is just a jerk, you won't change him, and it will be up to you to make your working environment pleasant to you, so a kind response is still the way to go in my opinion.0 -
Some people just never get it.. He thinks you are hot and wants you to think he is as well.. let it go.. his lifestyle will get him in the end0

What an idiot!0

I can actually top this - my coworker who was up for gastro told me "you should try to get a gastro - it will make it so much easier" ...
Oh wait I forgot mention that he weighs at least 200 lbs more than me lol...
So erm ya ... some ppl are just a-holes and need to be ignored...0 -
