Although one of these might be better given where the OP lives.
drooling... it's like, breakfast meets nachos
You can't see it, but there ARE two 1/3 pound hamburger patties on an open faced bun at the core of that thing

Is this how the community really supports each other?
Joined yesterday, this is my 4th post and so far i got this one reply in my inbox.
Good luck on your journey everyone but I'm not in a place to deal with this kind of behavior. I wonder how many others like me could have really used this site to help themselves. The counters were cool but since I log in every time I eat I'm going to look at the forums and this isn't any good. Dealing with this is okay on other forums but I was hoping for support here and was skeptical and now i see i was right.

Hey meadowbreeze,
I saw your response to one of the other MFP people looking for new friends. I am writing about your comment, about going it alone and avoiding the forums. I agree with avoiding the forums but you can add friends and see what they post every day. It shows up on your "home" page and is a little like Facebook.
Having friends is totally separate from the forums and really helpful to maintain progress and exchange ideas. There are a lot of really normal, regular folks on MFP but most of the forum lurkers are simply rude and obnoxious. So, I just wanted to encourage you to not seek friends on here. Best of luck with your journey,
Meadowbreeze, trying to lose a significant amount of weight without a sense of humor is not going to be easy. Good luck.0 -
Thanks. I'll guess 15 minutes because there were so many temptations.How does one measure exercise done by the eyes? I just burned some kcals reading the thread in one go.
I don't know, but Dr. Oz says that 2 hours of REM sleep burns 150 more calories, so I'm sure you can use that in your calculation:

Doesn't really matter to me
Little high, little low
Because I'm easy come, easy go
caught in a landslideis this real life?
Is this just fantasy?
No escape from reality.
Open your eyes
Look up to the skies and see
I'm just a poor boy, I need no sympathy
Anyway the wind blows.
To me...

You look like a delicious friend!0 -
Fine then. Beat by a matter of seconds...
I will just post another delicious food...
All of these items are agreeably delicious.0 -
I mean you have to be joking right?
It's their fault that YOU haven't been losing?
I'm not joking at all!
While I quite agree that blaming your friends for your lack of weight loss is a bit over the top, I can totally understand deleting friends that are not providing the motivation that you need. We all have our strengths and weaknesses and if food porn is a weakness for you, then it's best to be rid of it. Good luck to you!0 -
I get it too, but I don't get an Announcement.I mean you have to be joking right?

Wow....Well seeing as the OP has only been a member since June 2013 (so two months at most) and already has almost 1,000 forum posts, maybe the solution would be to turn off the damn computer and take a walk!

It's not that hard to avoid the forums. Sometimes I go *hours* without the invigorating shot of insanity.0 -

Gotta say, if you joined yesterday and have already lost 100 pounds as your ticker claims, that's probably a record.
Also, don't post PMs in the forums. Someone will tattle.
Edit: Oops. Never mind. Deactivated already. Clearly, all you jerks drove her to it!! Shame on you!!!!0 -
OMFG I think I just gained all of the weight I have lost, by working my *kitten* off, because I looked at the food porn!

That averages out to 16 posts a day.
Thanks for judging me though0 -
Although I understand where everyone posting food is coming from, you might want to rethink it. I am a compulsive overeater. When I see food, I literally CANNOT NOT eat it. When I see pictures of food, all I can think about is when I can eat next.
Maybe he is too. Maybe they're trying to do what's best for them, and it's perfectly okay to look for support one specifically needs, ON A SUPPORT WEBSITE.
this is a crazy rude website sometimes smh.
I am a compulsive overeater myself. I just started reading Overcoming Overeating in hopes that it will bring me some success.
OP you can add me. My diary is open. I don't always do very well I will be honest with you, but I NEVER post pictures of food or even makes status's about it. I understand how you feel.
And to everyone viciously posting pictures of food....that's messed up and definitely not supportive.0 -

Pushover. How much of a Chicago fan can she be if she didn't comment on the Maxwell St. or the Portillos food? It's got to be a ploy.0 -
