    Mine's public, but some people keep it private because some users have no problem giving harsh feedback that was not asked for. (I haven't had this happen personally, but I know people who have.) I think if someone asks for honest feedback that's one thing, but to critique someone's food diary when they didn't even ask for it is a bit presumptuous.

    Anyways... mine's public, and I have no problem with anyone taking a peek. Most days I"m pretty proud of it. :wink:

    Ditto!!! I dont mind my MFPs looking at my diary; for the most part everyone on my friends list is very positive and if they do say anything about what i eat its because i asked and i wanted the input!!! But like i said most everyone on my friends list is very positive!!!

    Mine's wide open, and I log every morsel.


    Exactly the same for me! I have only encountered the most helpful & motivating people, so luckily I have not had any harsh words or criticism. However, I don't really eat anything that would invite that kind of negativity. I keep mine open so that others have the opportunity to get ideas for themselves, I do the same thing when I look at other's diaries. I find it helps! I also find myself more encouraged to stay on track knowing others are looking or can see what I am eating! Glad you posted this though, I always wondered the same thing.
