Bitch when did I comment on you making shitty eating decisions and not working out? Anyone else get fitshamed by coworkers or family?
>>35638117
>who has time to count macros anyways?
Why would you tell people you do that?
>>35638158
Well people make comments whenever I weigh my food at work and write it in my journal. It gets to the point where I preweigh and track macros before I go to work
>Oh, that 3200 word diet and exercise plan you wrote out for me for free? I feel sick/have a headache/am scared of fit people/don't feel up to it/it's raining so I'm gonna go next week even though it's a Monday.
She's a long time friend and I wanted to give back but it doesn't seem that motivation is transferrable.
>Ive tried all the fad diets how can you lose weight?
>count my fucking calories you fatso
>>35638223
Help me instead anon. Kidding. That sucks a lot.
I just hate when people ask me for diet advice then say dumb shit like do you have to count calories? When I just told them to do so. 'Cause for me, I do have to count I'm not good at estimating and I know these people personally and they're not either.
>>35638304
As far as I can tell, there's 3 main things keeping 80% of the population from being fit.
1. The fruits and the goal physique is a long term hustle and requires constant effort and often drastic lifestyle changes.
2. Through the average body getting more and more cellulose, contemporary generations growing up learning that everyone is valuable and a winner, and the prevalence of instant gratification being a distraction, people don't have the motivation or inclination to actually make a change and stick to it.
3. Fitness and fit people are intimidating and envy inducing, meaning that to start, one has to step out of their comfort zone.
Everyone who has come to me for advice or has asked why I do what I do has one or more of those roadblocks, and they can only be overcome internally.
We can't all make it, and accepting that some people don't is a hard thing to swallow once you've gotten to greener pastures.
>>35638416
All very true.
>>35638416
I completely agree with you. We are not all winners, special, or important in any significant way. Some people are, but most aren't. When people realize they'll have to fight an up hill battle to get what they want they just give up and embrace ideology that makes them feel better about their shitty existence.
>>35638178
Fuck thats such a waste of time actually. Bringing a journal. Got damn. Why dont you just write a diet and only count macros once.
>>35638416
The problem, which I've recently come to terms with is that over 50% of Americans these days are LITERALLY stupid. They lack the critical thinking skills / willpower and understanding to set goals and follow through with them. Most people are content with a mediocre life and it' sad.

>>35638595
Lift in silence. Train in silence.
There is nothing more cringe than some guy who only talks about working out.
>>35638791
The thing is, it's not me bringing it up. Unfit people always have to comment on how I live my life or make excuses around me why they are the way that they are. I don't go around saying "YOU SHOULD TRACK YOUR MACROS BRO!" People always comment when I do it.
>>35638746
Gr8 vid m8
>>35638562
It doesn't help that 80% of what's out there is misinformation, and a lot of companies are more interested in taking peoples' money than helping them lose weight. Doesn't mean it's impossible for any to lose weight just makes it harder for people without any fitness knowledge.
>>35638823
Bringing a scale to work and writing in your journal is going to cause that to happen. I also weigh my food and track cals/macros, but I do it without letting everyone at work know.
>>35638882
Ya doing something weird like that is a perfect excuse for workplace bantz.

Feels good. You've got to make them feel like they're working for the answer rather than having it spoonfed to them
>>35638882
I mean its not like I'm trying to prove something to them? I'm humble about my fitness journey
>>35638901
That's really what this thread is about. Just banter between coworkers and friends/family. Just take it and make light of it. Wish they would and not be all butthurt and talk shit online saying "oh they're attacking my lifestyle and they're just jealous!!!" And people who always talk about working out are of course going to get bantz.
>>35638970
Why not just weigh your food at home and bring it in tupperware? Also why use a journal over mfp? I mean do what you want but I'm telling you that is why that happens to you.

>We can't all make it
I think we can all make it, as long as you don't expect everyone to make it according to your standard. That isn't to say that you'll make it if you don't try, but we can all make it.
I think the long-term nature of adding muscle for me (I have about 20kg to add for my long-term goal) is a hard part of it as you say. I'm starting to wonder if aesthetics is an effective motivator for long-term changes. I think that focusing on how I feel instead might result in me taking a healthier approach - instead of trying to push myself to see results, I'll be more in tune with how I feel, less likely to injure myself and more likely to find a satisfying relationship with the process of working out, where I think using it as a means to an end is maybe counter-productive to developing it as an end in itself which you most likely have to if you're spending years on it.
>>35639002
Where you are wrong is I am not narcissistic, I am very empathetic and understand that people are the way they are because of how they were brought up etc. However it aggravates me when people accept their poor standard of living.
>HAHAHA Wow Anon you're exercising?

I am having a difficult time deciphering what this post is saying.

Why is it that we both lift, but I'm the only one who gets fit shamed? We both work out, so shouldn't we both be fit shamed just as equally? I don't get it.
>>35638951
I typically do this with success, but there's usually 2 different types of approaches people make when asking for advice.
The first is like your friend, he actually intends to make a change and has the motivation, but needs the first and last 10% of information to truly get there. Then, there's my friend example, who only really asked about it in order to give herself the illusion of making an effort, honestly I didn't even write it for her, I wrote it so I have something to refer to whenever someone asks me the same questions.
>>35639098
It basically says that you are an idiot. If you understood that then look no further.
>>35639108
>implying you have to shove fitness down people's throats to be commented on your eating habits
>implying only meatheads get fit shamed
>>35639122
I mean what does "a hall of mirrors" mean? Never heard that saying.
>>35638707
>>wow, anon sure is hungry
I get a real kick out of ordering at all my favorite fast food places, now that im smaller, and them staring at my order like "where does all the food go?".
>>35639057
>>35639098
The idea behind the post is not that we as lifters are the narcissists, it's that people who do not make the positive change don't because they see everyone around them acting with the same apathy they have, ergo they rationalise that they themselves are okay in acting this way instead of having accountability for themselves.

I completely agree, the daily reason I lift is because I enjoy pushing myself and I enjoy the way my body feels after a workout, I also love the idea that next week I'll be stronger, next month I'll look stronger, and next year I'll be better.
But to the majority of the population, they don't know this. I didn't know it when I started, I just wanted abs to get girls. I'd also argue that the 'I'm fit so I can fuck hot chicks' rationalisation turns away the soft, pussified feminist men who are part of the hall of mirrors another Anon mentioned.
That's another discussion though.

>>35639142
It refers to a circus or carnival sideshow in which you walk through a passageway full of distorted-glass mirrors. The mirrors distort your image to make you look really fat or impossibly thin, or tall, etc. That's the literal meaning. As a figure of speech, it may refer to a freakish, confusing path you travel in which no matter where you turn are unable to discern a real, true image. You just keep coming up against distortions of the truth.
>>35639098

Yes, actually. I get fit shamed a lot. B/c I'm a female ppl often say incorrect and uninformed things like "you're too muscular for a girl" "girl's shouldn't weightlift it's bad for their health" "you shouldn't be able to see female's abs or else they're too low BF to be healthy"

About the only people I find that fit-shame are envious fatties who have to take a bunch of medications. I usually knock their ego down by telling them I used to be fat and blamed it all on everything else (including "muh cundishions", "muh Seroquel!", "muh meds", "it's cheaper to eat bad food", "good food tastes horrible!" etc) instead of myself. I had a moment of clarity and realized how fucking delusional I was being and started working out and eating right by learning how to actually cook. Spices can make the worst tasting foods great.
Of course, they never believe it because they're so much into denial. They even think you don't have fun exercising. I fucking love running. Seriously, get into the rhythm while running a marathon, and it's damn awesome.

I used to get shit at work because I'd constantly be re filling my cup of iced water at the restaurant portion of it.

>I'd work out if I had the time
>who has the time to count macros
These bother me most. Counting macros takes literally a couple of minutes before each meal, and cooking good food for macros for the whole week is reasonably time efficient as well. My meal prep takes about 90 minutes a week.
As for not having time to work out, I always ask people uncomfortable questions when they say that condescendingly. I'm a bachelor, I live on my own with my dog. I walk him daily. I work 40 hours a week. I'm writing a Masters thesis part time. I have social activities 2 to 4 times a week. I still find time to post on a Mongolian yak hunting bulletin board. If you have a few kids, then MAYBE you don't have much time. Barring that, I call bullshit. You can always make time for something if it's important to you.
My office is full of fat bitches and dadbods going bald in their late 20s early 30s.
Once
one time
1
One fucking time I brought a tupperware box with me, because the chinese place where I usually eat was renovating and I intended to bring my own food for that week or so.
No the fit guy brought a tupperware box. Crabs started shittalking and making "snarky" remarks and tried to make it into a running gag.
Well fuck them. Ever since that day I eat junkshit for lunch (if I eat at all and some of the fast food has surprisingly ok macros, despite their meat quality being shit).
Or I bring a bag of gums with me (lowcarb/lowfat yogurt shit) in a glass bowl and I leave it on the table so everyone can see it emptying out during the day.
Or I repackage the protein chips (100g 427kcal 40g protein 20g carbs 18g fat) my supp shop is making, into packages of junkshit chips and eat a bag of chips during work.
"guess I just have the genetics for this body" and I enjoy their envy and their hate. Fuck you. Fuck everything, fuck this world promoting mediocrity.

Thank you. Couple of days before moving out we gotten into a huge argument and not only my parents my older sister told me to disappear and never show face anymore, and my baby brother is avoiding me probably because he doesn't want to get in trouble. Not being able to see my siblings has been my biggest struggle. My parents never used to be like that 5 years ago, something in them changed drastically.
Since I moved out I feel happier, and I can focus on fitness and other self improvements better.

I haven't really eaten candy, cake, soda, etc. for about 2 years, but the other day was my grandma's birthday, and probably her last one (cancer) plus my mom is an excellent cook and made an angel's food cake, so I ate some. I gave in b/c making my mom feel good is more important than 500 calories of sugar, and it tasted good for sure, but really once you're no longer addicted to it, sugar is really something you don't miss. Keep working bro, you'll make it

Haven't seen a single post that described a conversation involving shaming that would actually be difficult to 1. respond to well and 2. shut the other person up.

It's not that its difficult to handle, it's just the premise of the argument is laughable that people would even comment on the fact that someone is bettering themselves. Proving that close friends/family/coworkers are shallow enough to project their insecurities onto people close to them.
>>35644956

Your response should be "that's good to know" and look away uninterested.

You make some good points anon, except that seroquel is pure evil and does facilitate weight gain (given the same food intake) via raising prolactin levels.
I went from 99kg to 110 in 6 months on a old dose of sero and it was about 85% fat at a guess.
Feels good to be 89kg now though, climbing up serious hills on a road bike at 110kg is no party.

She does this because my sister and I have told her that if she wants to lose weight, she needs to not eat any sweets. And she always gets pissed off because it's literally impossible for her to do so. Getting us to eat shit is her way of getting back at us

>>35643720
the counting macros is stupid excuse. After a while you just know what each stuff contains.
Meat is 20g protein /100g, potatoes are under 20 carbs, rice and pasta are around 25 carbs each and if you go for the full grain thats about 15g protein for pasta and half for rice. That already is a huge part of your needed knowledge there.
