Okie Dokie folks...I am not one to take offense to too much....BUT! I work with a girl that is extremely obese...I mean the kind of obese that makes it difficult to sit let alone walk. She is always commenting on how her father died from obesity related illnesses, i.e. heart disease, diabetes (type 2) etc... she recently told me that she was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and would have to start watching what she ate, especially the carbs. I mentioned that I had a list of some great sources of protein and complex carbs that would assist her with her diet change...WHOOPS! She snaps back at me that she doesn't want to look like me with my "man shoulders and man muscles!" EWWWWWEEEE,,that just rocked my boat...since when are muscles exclusive to men? More importantly, since when is a fit person a bad thing? I immediately thought of some snappy come backs, but kept them to myself because I actually feel sorry for her, knowing that her lifestyle isn't going to change and she'll probably end up like her dad. Just irritate the heck out of me! [img]/forum/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img]

Poor woman. Sounds like you handled it as best you could. It might be hard, but try again. You could end up saving her life, if you can convince her to let you help.

Something like "We all have the same muscles - yours just happen to be under 200 lbs. of fat. If you want me to help you, then you need to listen to me. Otherwise, leave me alone."

Tell her that jealousy is just as ugly as gluttony.

HAHAHAHAHA! Vlad, MO and Kryptic, awesome comebacks guys!
I would do MO's first..then Kryptic's and close the deal with Vlad's.

Just 'cause, if you talk, you need to back it up! LOL

Yes, we have noticed that you look like a man. None of us wanted to say anything, though.

*rolling eyes*

Not.

You could say "Well, then at least try to look like a woman instead of a walking circus tent."

Sympathy Levels @ -37%, reaching random insult threshold for idiots like this girl.

you guys!!!! I love it..."circus tent," "dead lift her,"....oh man....my abs are killing! [img]/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] I could see it now..."woman arrested for dead lifting co-worker." [img]/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
Really though...it's sad to see somebody abuse themselves so much! Those are the types that really need a serious kick in the head...hmmmm, maybe I'll just throw her down, with my man shoulders, and kick her right in the head... "HI-YA!" take that "skinny!"
Loved the...muscles under 200lbs comment too! good point! [img]/forum/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

When someone pisses me off and I don't want to comment or whatever. I just try to imagine how i'm deadlifting that person, in fact, make it few! One in each hand and few on the back! Then I laugh for myself and move on...of course, when I reach positive failure, I just drop them on the ground! Real hard! [img]/forum/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

blah, tell her muscles or not, I'm not obese nor do I have diabetes and watch her choke on that.
