"You don't need lose to weight."

Losing weight is a personal journey and decision so there are some things that are good and encouraging to say, and some things that aren't productive or helpful. Here are things you should never say to someone losing weight.
"Have you tried [specific fad or trendy diet]? It worked so well for me."
"Didn't you try to lose weight last year?"
"Why are you eating that? Aren't you on a diet?"
"Having curves is more attractive than being skinny anyway."
"How much have you lost so far?"
"You're barely eating anything. Are you sure you're healthy?"
"What can't you eat?"
"But I made these brownies/cookies/burgers just for you!"
"No one will notice if you're just a few pounds lighter."
