    Why disagree with my comment? I'm here to send love and support to team members. Trying to have fun and be light hearted here. If you don't like my style of speaking, move on. Why dislike? At least give me a reason. I don't need this kind of negativity. Not why I'm in this group. Seriously, this "dislike" really makes me want to quit this group right now.

    Do not quit this group! You are a huge support and inspiration here!! I'm not sure why someone was so upset by you supporting my weigh in for the week I don't think I've said anything that has offended anyone maybe they are just struggling on their journey and it upset them. Either way it doesn't matter what matters is that I really appreciate the love, support and inspiration I get in this group from you and the others here and I know that had it not been for you guys in this group I would have quit by now but instead I'm more determined then ever! And it's thanks to you guys! I owe and share my success with you and I feel the same for all of you, my success is your success and your success is mine! We are a team in this together. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

    Maybe someone pushed the button by accident? It's in a right corner, which might be a case. I don't think that anyone would do smth like that on purpose. At least I hope so 💖

    @143tobe While I didn't do this, I seriously believe it was an accident and I will tell you why I believe that. There used to be a button that said "woo" and several months ago, maybe even a year ago, we decided that despite their really dumb reason for calling it a woo, we were going to make it a good thing--as in a woo hoo, and it had exactly the same face...someone probably clicked that thinking it was a woo hoo.

    I've literally never seen someone actually disagree with anything and that particular post would have no reason to disagree...its a cheer post, which is also why I think that someone clicked that, cheering your cheer....etc...
    Do not quit this group! You are a huge support and inspiration here!! I'm not sure why someone was so upset by you supporting my weigh in for the week I don't think I've said anything that has offended anyone maybe they are just struggling on their journey and it upset them.

    And also I'd like to mirror what @satchel2008 said, literally what you said to me on Monday about being strong and lifting others up really hit me hard and really saved my week...I would be extremely sad to see you go over what I can only assume was an accident, and I can certainly understand your upset. And I really do think you bring so much light and inspiration to our little table here and, especially lately when I've been struggling, I've really benefited from your support and I'm sure that many others have as well.

    @satchel2008 I'm glad Keto is helping, I really felt like it was the "nuclear" option when I tried it because I had literally tried everything else. I did figure out in about 6 weeks how much I really liked it, I like the savory foods (and occasional treats that I make) but most of all I like the smaller body and increased energy that I have. I will never go back to the standard diet, but I may also not be so strict when I reach maintenance (whenever that may be).

    Thanks guys. Your comments really mean a lot to me. That disagree really rubbed me the wrong way because I feel like this is a safe group, away from the general threads where being disagreeable is the norm. Maybe it was as you suggested, just a mistake. I'm going to let it go. Already forgotten :)

    @satchel2008 So glad you decided to go keto. Your comments regarding your apparent metabolism problems make me think that it was "metabolic syndrome" and I wanted to say something but I wasn't even sure if metabolic syndrome is an actual thing or just a theory. Anyways, one solution is keto but I didn't say anything. I tend to shy away from suggesting keto or low carb because so many people will just roll their eyes and think I'm crazy. I'm happy that @AB0215 suggested it and that it seems to be working for you. Keto does have a learning curve and please do tell us if you experience anything unpleasant because a few of us in here do keto or have done it and will probably have some insight into a solution.

    Is it possible the "disagree" was just an accident while scrolling? I view on my kindle and have big fingers, along with everything else, so I've had to unclick on occasion.

    Thank you so much. And well...since you brought it up..lol there is one thing that has been happening that was unpleasant lol and it may be TMI lol but I have noticed that my ... #2 in the bathroom has been weird. My stomach kinda gargles and I actually had an accident in my pants the other day!! 😳😳😳😳 I just assumed that it's my body adjusting or cleansing or whatever but you guys who have done keto was this something u noticed? And once again so so sorry if this is TMI!!

    Hi everyone. I haven’t been very active on MFP over the past few days as I’ve came down with a bad cold, and my little one has too. We’re both feeling really drained. I haven’t been tracking over the past few days and my appetite seems to have gone but I’ve still been eating what I can manage, which isn’t much tbh. I’ll start with my daily posts again from tonight and I’ll do my weigh-in as usual on Monday 😊

    @143tobe Just wanted to echo what others have said in that I think your comment was maybe “disagreed” with by accident. I think it’s easy to do because the majority of us scroll with our right thumb which is right where the “disagree” button is. Hope you’re good 🤗

    metabolic syndrome is a real thing and insulin sensitivity too, and keto can really help with those issues and really, it's worth a shot, especially when you've tried everything else. And I don't generally go right to recommending keto ( even though I feel so strongly about it ) because it is a reallllly different way of thinking and there is that "stigma" still surrounding it. But it is a good, healthy diet and really has many benefits, and can really help those who have tried many different things with no real results.

    @satchel2008 Not TMI for me, I might be the queen of TMI though, so there is that....
    That is actually a very normal response to the increased fats. It usually subsides after a few weeks. This is a big metabloic shift and can take the body several weeks to properly adapt (but it's worth it). I didn't experience that one too much, but my mom did and she literally complained to me every day until it got better....not sure if she blamed me or if she was just complaining...but that was my life like 9 months ago lol. The one I experienced was the "keto flu" and it came on FAST for me, and I literally lived on chicken broth for days until I started to get the importance of electrolytes.

    @walk4today That's been me a lot lately, and I'm to a point right now where I am literally planning my meals the day before and pre-tracking them. I don't know what it is, maybe I've just been doing this so long..but I need to stay on track and finish and that's what I'm trying to do now.

    Comments: Not sure if it is waiting for grandbaby to arrive and being on alert to watch older grandchild, change in eating after traveling or a real illness but my stomach was upset last night which does curb one's appetite!

    Wow! Waiting for a new baby could give anyone a nervous stomach. Congratulations! Is the baby here?? o:)

    Still waiting on the baby! I picked up my grandson to watch when my daughter-in -law's water broke at 1 in the afternoon yesterday and still no baby now. I was very nervous until my son texted that they were still waiting.

    I am also joining the ranks of people who love being on a team with you. I looked to see if there was a way to see who comments like you see if it is on Instagram but that feature is not on this app, I was hoping that I had not done it accidentally.
