Co-workers

Do the people you work with have no regard whatsoever for what they eat? I just looked over at a co worker that sits across from me. She is 5'6 probably well over 250lbs and is eating a bagel covered in cream chesse and drinking a coke. But she's on a "diet" and will probably eat a salad at lunch. Sometimes I just wonder where people get this info and think that they are going to lose weight. Anyone else work with people that are totally clueless or just don't care?

Basically I'm bored at work
 
We have a bunch of wildebeasts where i work.. they try and have "health initiatives" to make people healthier, but then they buy pizza and have birthday cake for employees all the time, kinda makes the health initiatives a moot point... oh well.
 
Well like when I see fat people I don't feel bad for them because they let themselves get that way anyone can lose weight. Put down the big mac and french fries and eat healthy. Or fat people that complain about being fat but don't do anything to help themselves it's so hard not to say something.
 
Im going with CodyK7. I dont feel bad for them, nor do I care. I know Im overweight but 1. I dont bitch about it and 2. Im in good enough shape to go bang out a 3 hr workout. I work in an ER. You want to talk about fat lazy whinny bastards. Mostly the patients. Because it is our falult that you weigh 500 pounds now you cant breath and your chest hurts
 
There's mostly a bunch of middle aged or old fat men where I work my desk job.

I use my co-workers as motivation for what I DON'T want to ever look like. Helps me get in the gym 4-5 times a week directly after work, and also not go too crazy on snacking at work. I've never been fat, always skinny with a high metabolism but in the past couple of years I have gotten to where I almost exclusively drink water with meals whereas I used to always down a Dr. Pepper with whatever meal or snack I was eating.

yeah... co-workers...
 
haha...that's a great diet...bagel with cream cheese and a coke...then they wondering why "diets" never work for them...that's classic...
 
I was one of those past fat guys that hung around with other fat guys and ate ****ty food for breakfast and lunch. I have sense changed my ways, lost 30-40lbs of fat, gained 20lbs of muscle. However, I have not inspired them to do the same. Now I get comments from them about being too good to eat with them and they try to bring me back down.

Exactly. She just had another coke for lunch maybe she's off the "diet" now I didn't ask.

I use it for motivation too. Both of my parents have gotten overweight and I've told myself I don't want to look like that at 30-40 or even 50. But they've never worked out other than my dad in high school. Times were alot different when they were in their 20's and 30's people didn't work out and by the time you are actually fat you've been eating that way for so long its hard to change.

That's awesome man. Keep up the good work. Anyone can do it you just have to get in the right mindset. Hell if most people would just cut out fast food and sodas it would help them a lot. Don't let them bring you down keep up the good work.... You've got to do it for yourself not anyone else.
 
I see it all the time, and it kinda disgusts me to see people like that....

But they look so at peace while blissfully chompin away that it's hard to not be happy for them. For they have found solace and tranquility through foodstuffs, despite the fact that it is unhealthy and unappealing to most of the general population.

Think of pigs. Sure, they stink and have sh!t all over themselves, but they enjoy it way to much to worry about the dangers of frolicking in excrement.
 
what do you mean...she's only having 4 cokes a day instead of her usual 6...duh! :rolleyes: :D

haha very possibly. Someone brought in donuts today. Guess who is first in line..... :trout: She said she is on some meal thing where she has to buy food or something. She gave me some nasty ass protein bars. She told me she doesn't like them but if she doesn't buy them she can't be in the program. I just wanted to be like I'm sure they don't want you drinking cokes and eating donuts either.

Im not gonna lie, I probablly eat more than the typical fat person, that being said, I dont drink soda, alcohol, chips, candies etc....
 
I apologize for my previous post in this thread. Everyone has their faults. Some eat to much, some spend more than they make, and some people are communists.

My apologies to anyone I offended. Except communists.
 
Nobody hates fat people more than fat people who got in shape. Let's just say I hate fat people a lot. At least I never thought I was hot stuff or anything. It's mostly the females that act like that but man that **** gets me more annoyed than just about anything. It takes so much willpower not to just call them fat and worthless until they cry when fat people act like they think they are attractive.
 
there are some pretty fat and nasty people that work in the offshore oil industry who eat like no tomorrow. I first thought everyone would be like john coffee on the green mile throwing around 60 inch pipe wrenches. but its not the case. whiny lazy bitches most of them trying to punt the work off on someone else. it is easy however to get on a calorie counting diet or what ever diet you want since daily meals prepared are pretty much the same every week.
 
Give her a break! maybe it was diet coke!? And just maybe the bagel was to have the energy to chase down the roach coach. Don't know why the cream chease though...ahhh... she deserves to be a fat slob!
 
while it disgusts me on one hand to see obese individuals, it also reaffirms how lucky a girl is to have a fit man - much like how we enjoy dating an attractive woman.

this valentines, let your honey know how great it is to be a fit couple :)

nope it's always regular coke(diet coke wouldn't be as bad but regular is pretty much the worse thing you can drink).... that stuff is loaded with sugar. I don't know I think most people just don't care once you get to be really big it's like they just give up totally.

My fiance's parents are both pretty big and the mother in law said something about me having a few pimples on my face. I said ya I know it's from working out and getting being sweaty (sp?)something you wouldn't know anything about. I know it was kind of mean but she always tries to put down my gf saying she is too skinny or her legs are too muscular and I think she looks great she's in shape unlike her mom.
 
I don't understand how people get as fat as they do. When I was in the worst shape of my life - working way too hard, not having the time to hit the gym like I used to etc I topped out at 240 lbs @ ~20% BF and I felt like a blimp - and I'm 6'1" FFS.

Now getting back to 220 lbs at or below 10% BF took a bit of hard work and dedication but at the end of the day I feel better for it.

What I don't understand is HOW people get >300+ lbs when they're <6' tall. They must literally lie in state and eat as if it was a full time job! And don't even get me started on parents who have KIDS that get this fat. It's child abuse, plain and simple.

when you're knocking back a pint of Ben and Jerry's every night it's easy to get that big. as we all know it's not just what you eat but when you eat it
