I can talk about health and eating right and work out stuffs with thin people (normal weight ppl) but most fat people get really offended?

[Anonymous]

I am almost feeling so sick of fat people just get offended by anything i say pretty much. I am border line of normal weight... So i really worry about weight and stuff and to be honest i am not even happy with how i look. So i am always on diet. I go work out and try to eat right. I think it is right thing to do. Like i said i am thinking i have a perfect body. Problem is when i even speak a word about diet and stuffs, fat people get so upset like i said something wrong. And if i sugguest them to work out with me or that food is bad for you or something, they get really upset or something. I am so sick of being "skinny" which is not even a true. Sometimes i wonder if i was fat, maybe i will have more of my side? I am not even joking it is harder to live or have friends as a "skinny" (i am not but they think i am) girl. Do anyone agree with me? Or am i just weird person? Is wrong for me to think that they and i should lose weight for health problems?

honestly, you never know what people are going through. a common misconception is that fat people are lazy, while that's not true for every overweight person. everyone has different things that affect our bodies and how they lose or gain weight, so there could be a few different reasons why those people react that way. the first is that they really just don't want your advice, there are people like that on both ends of the spectrum (those needing to lose and those who would benefit from gaining weight), the second is that maybe this person is actually trying, and they look at you, someone who (to them, anyway) looks to be in great shape, and wonder why in the world you think you should be dieting. hope i'm not offending you when i say this but it sounds like you yourself are on a bit of a journey concerning your self image, so maybe in order to realize where they are coming from put yourself in their shoes, they are having concerns just like you. not sure of how exactly your conversations go, but maybe be aware of how you are saying it, make sure you're saying how important it is for everyone to be healthy, and try not to single out anybody. hope this helps!

You're not wrong for thinking it, but voicing it tends to offend people.

I would LOVE to find someone who I could talk fitness to. Not to give advice or anything, just talk to about my fitness goals. One of my biggest pet peeves is when you tell someone you're going to the gym and they're like, "Why? You're already skinny."

... Well, yes, I am aware, thanks. But I'm trying to build muscle and STAY fit. You don't just stay there once you get there lol

No one wants to get preached at on a constant basis. It's good that you are health conscious. However, many fat people have an addiction, or they is something else that has led them to being fat. They have turned to food as a way to decompress. Fat people, including me, want to be healthier; we honestly do, but it's harder for some people. Change for yourself; if they want help, offer it to them. Otherwise, don't tell them what to do. That leads to jealousy and resentment. Those fat friends of yours are jealous of you. No one wants a constant dose of criticism.

Nobody wants to hear that what they're eating is unhealthy. Chances are, they already know it's unhealthy. I think it's best to not comment about someone's eating habits.

Instead of telling your bigger friends, "You should work out with me", say something like, "It'd be fun to work out with you sometime" or something asking those lines.

You also need to remember that some people are happy with their weight and the way they look, so suggesting that they lose weight can be offensive--especially if their weight doesn't negatively affect their health.

I think you're right. Political correctness is a good thing but it should never interfere with yours/someone else's health or fitness
