making things difficult
I've been trying to loose some weight. I know i'm not fat, but i'd just like to loose a few pounds. I started last week, and it went pretty well, but i've decided that this week i'm just not going to diet but start up again next week. I know i shouldn't but i have my reasons. But ever since i've been on this diet, all my friends ever do is hound me about it and make fun of me! they always steal my food and count the calories in it, and everytime i tell them to just stop getting involved with this, they tell me to just listen... they laugh at me and count my calories and tell me how fat i'm gunna get, and it's really really annoying and being on a diet is difficult enough since i have a terrible sweet tooth, but they make it worse. I've tried many times to tell them that it's not their place to hound me about what i'm eating, but they don't listen to me and make a big deal out of everything. I have no idea what to do and they're making this really difficult for me. any ideas what to do? sorry it's so long.

Maybe give some free advice about: Friendship?
Although your friends are being insensitive jerks, you probably voice your insecurity a little too much.
Before you go on a diet for no reason, I suggest you better yourself on the inside. You're young. You can eat what you want. When you're older, you're going to miss that.
You can still watch what you eat. Learn to cook or bake. That way, you can have control of what you consume. There are many amazing desert recipes on the net that are easy to make and are low in fat.
In regards to your reply, your reason was that you wanted to lose a few pounds and it was purely out of choice. I gave you some good advice.
About your friends, you need to address them directly and if they continue being insensitive about it, you can either find new friends who are considerate and understanding or you can have a 'special' spot for the foods you eat, so no one can get their grubby hands on it. Perhaps not eating when they are around, but going to a different room might make them get the point that it bothers you.

well your friends arnt verry supportive and thats kinda sad. This sounds like it hurts you so you should be like"wow and i call you guys my friends and be like this really hurts" make them feel as bad as them make you feel and then most likely things will be alright. I hoped in some small way i helped. Good luck to you and the things you do.

Ok, first. Insted of dieting you should really just watch what you eat - Im in the same spot and I find it easier to drink water when I want to snack then being on a "diet".
Second and ut-most. Those arnt friends, they are jerks and the way to solve that is a baseball bat. Or a guy like me. Hehe, yeah - just tell them to Nic' off next time they start flipping crap at you.

my friends make fun of me because i used to be on the south beach diet its when u eat foood with little or no carbohydrates... it did bug me a little but after a while i just went along with it and joke back with them but if it really bugs youy then u should tell them something.. if they were ur true friends then they would understand

real friends would never do that
just ignore them if that doesent work stand up to them and tell them it's bothering you i'm sure they'll understand best of luck!

Tell them one last time about how you feel about what they do to you.only true friends will listen to you. If it gets worse just don't sit with them at lunch or wherever this is taking place and they might get the idea...hope this helps

Hey hun...if your "friends" are making fun of you for something that your trying to improve in yourself or about something that would make you more comfortable with yourself then their really not your friends. If they can't see that what your trying to do to make yourself happy..then that's pathetic and you deserve better. Your right and its not their place at all to be making fun of you and counting calories and what not. I'm on a diet too and I'm not fat..just like you I would like to lose a few pounds. My friends don't really get involved because I didn't really tell them. I usually don't even eat lunch at school but anyways...do what you want..and do what will make you happy. If you need anything else..write me back hun! -Kristen

I would yell at them. tell them you can eat what you want, because its your food and your life! I would be so pissed off at my "friends" if they did that to me..just yell at them and ignore them..dont talk to them..their jerks..Eat what you want, when you want and dont listen to them!
