    This may come as a shock, but not everyone is you. Also not everyone is here because they used to be 300 pounds. There are people here with eating disorders who are trying to put weight on, people who are trying to build muscle and need extra calories and people who have medical issues and have cut out a lot of food groups and have trouble figuring out what to eat now. There are actually a million reasons why someone might not be able to meet their calorie goal for the day.

    This post seems like it was for attention since you don't have an actual question. Yes, many people here have binge eating problems but not all.

    are you supporting someone eating under 1000 cals/day long term? Or that it is ok to not know what they are eating at all?

    Nope, and nothing I have written suggested that either of those was the case. Only that some people do actually have difficulty eating all their daily calories. It is a real thing that actually happens. Is that such a difficult concept?

    Kind of...'cuz nobody got fat and to the point of needing to lose weight by only being able to eat a measly 1000 calories or whatever...

    Not everyone here is overweight. You can actually want to cut fat without wanting to lose weight. Maybe people should just mind their own business?

    I case you want a refresher of the OP, the type of post being discussed in this thread is:

    Seriously, you see these posts every day

    "Hi, I'm Sharon, I used to weigh 300lbs and consume 4000 calories a day but now I'm on a diet I can't force myself to eat 1200 calories, I'm full after 800 - 1000"

    I don't think so. What is the aim of these posts exactly? Is it attention? I mean, a snickers bar is 250 calories. 20g peanut butter is 130 calories. A Caesar salad with dressing is 800 to 1000 calories. You can't eat a salad?

    I'm not singling anyone out, I just don't get it.

    Sure there are tons of other types of people here, but they are specifically discussing this type of people.

    Lol OK. You super hungry? Or just had a bad day?

    I actually did ask a question, because I GENUINELY WANTED TO KNOW how someone who's overweight - obese because they are overeaters all of a sudden can't fit in 1200 calories. It's a legitimate question. Clearly I was not talking about people who are UNDERWEIGHT or have an eating disorder. Stop being so nasty and use a bit of common sense.
