I don't know about most of the others... on here THAT ARENT well toned young muscular men ... or women who've never gained a pound eating whatever the hell they want... but it really bothers me when people say that a calorie is a calorie... they seem to forget about trans fats... and etc. and everytime it seems as if they are attacking you or belittling you because they aren't fat.. or chubby and their body doesn't seem to take to the fast food and junk food as many others do.
now I admit, i stopped eating fast food when my mom moved and I came to live with my grandparents... mostly because of opportunity and well.. lack of interest in eating food i don't even know is real or not... and I do feel better and in WATCHING my caloric intake AND my fats.. i've been successful in losing... every time i've ever done it any other way... it doesn't work. so.. i really just wish that those people would shut up and stop giving the rest of us advice because you know what.. I highly doubt that if a calorie is a calorie.. a doctor would say its okay to just eat fast food every day as long as you count the calories. you .. would die. people have strokes off that... it causes diabetes and heart problems.. .. and OBVIOUSLY ... as sad as it is.. look around you! everyone in america seems to have a weight problem.. myself included... perhaps fast food is a sneaky culprit. now tell me again a calorie is a calorie. sometimes when i read stuff like that... it makes me think of when you're at the gym.. and in your zone and then some guy gives you a look.. disgusted you just want to smack them lol that's all i wanted to rant about folks. sorry if i peeved anyone.

if you dont want advice from people dont come on here asking for it. everyone on here has their own opinions and mind set about things..and mostly those fit people you hate so much, do eat healthy, watch their calories and dont eat fast food like you think we tend to do. if you dont like it, get off of here and stop posting.0

hm. I just have been really annoyed lately... i needed to mention this.. cuz you see all kinds at the gym.. and after a while you ignore them but I don't think its right to give diet advice like that. its like going to the doctor...
'do you drink red wine..'
'yes of course... all the time...'
' good.. that's good for your heart health.. now .. i hope you don't think i'm reccommending you drink a whole bottle a day.. just a glass...'
'oh... um.. sure. just a ... glass.'
same concept for any healthy food of course in moderation .. but its just stupid.0 -
hey, 'you're at the gym, and you're in your zone'.... forget the DBs! get your swole' on, girl!0

i'm sorry that you're putting yourself into the general ideal i'm speaking of. that's not what I meant.. you don't have to be rude. I was refferring to a post I read where someone litterally said you don't have to eat healthy foods.. that all you have to do is count calories.. that a calorie is a calorie and it doesn't matter if you eat fast food every day like he says he does. Don't be rude. I never indicated that i meant all. but i'm truly sorry if you do believe that it doesn't matter what youre eating if you don't go over in calories. I don't hate anyone. I never said hate. I said i was annoyed.0 -
you were rude by calling people douche bags and telling them to shut up. i called you out on it and reported your post.0

lol its okay .. i was only ranting. and I do apologize if i offended anyone lol it just seems so silly to get so worked up about something when i didn't mean you.. and if you're getting THIS worked up about it then obviously theres a flaw in your belief on what I said. you don't have to get defensive. we're all friends on here.0 -
Rant on! This is a good place to vent. Ignore the haters.0

Wow, drama. Lol!
I think you do bring up a good point, calories are not just calories if other nutrients are not factored into the diet. I do believe everything should be accountable for. People who say calories are just calories, that is what works for them which is fine. Everyone has the right to their opinion for what ever facts on fitness and nutrition they have been using for themselves.0 -
in a way that bout of drama made me feel like i was in hs again. and now i feel sick .. i think i have a fever i need to go to sleep lol I think I'm just tired.0

While I agree with your comments about healthy foods, I have to say that a calorie IS a calorie.
A calorie is not an evil thing, or a thing to be avoided at all costs, it doesn't have good or bad attributes in itself, it is just a measurement of energy, like a km is a measurement of distance or a gram is a measurement of weight.
I completely agree that we need to choose our calories wisely in order to be healthy, but I don't think that many people are saying "eat any old junk food that you like", most of the people I come across on here are aware of needing to make healthy choices even if that doesn't always happen.
Don't be put off by what you perceive others to be saying, chances are they are much more interested on themselves than you (and this is in real life as well as online).
And keep up the good work as you work towards a healthier you and ignore the odd person who isn't supportive.0 -
I too agree this is a nice place to rant things out. Everyone is looking for support at this site and not fighting with each other. Kinda weird that a rant becomes offensive when we know it's just a rant.0

really? lmao grow upyou were rude by calling people douche bags and telling them to shut up. i called you out on it and reported your post.0
