Well, we may all lose weight, but I guarantee you most of us will end up with loose skin. Heck, it all comes out in the wash, no matter how you spell it!

Yes!  I also see quite a few people using allot instead of the correct usage of "a lot".

LOL - I hate that as well, but I have never called anyone out on it.

I try not to be a grammar snob either (I make my own fair share of mistakes), but the two words that bother me the most are:

You LOSE weight, not LOOSE weight.
And...You ask for ADVICE and not ADVISE
