I just gotta say this... I get so tired of reading forum posts that are negative. Who are we to judge one another??? I realize some people make decisions that aren't "healthy" but everyone is on his or her own journey and what works for one person may not work for another. Not everyone can eat perfectly clean, not everyone could do the hcg thing, not everyone agrees with low fat or low carb, not everyone can give up diet coke or cigarettes or whatever... all I'm saying is that we should at least make an attempt to be supportive of others and not attack them for decisions we might not agree with. Be nice and stop judging already! Ok, rant over

Agreed. My personal goal is to spend less time being judgey about other people's judgey posts and spend more time trying to figure out the meaning of life: how to get a pygmy jerboa....
Besides being cute, having one of those lil guys will make me feel like Gulliver!!!:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:0 -

A-FRICKIN' MEN!!!!!!!!!!!
I saw one yesterday where somebody literally copy and pasted a "friends" food diary they deemed to be BAD and totally ripped on them. I was so mad I had to walk away from the computer. The whole point of this site is to help each other on this road to healthy living. What works for one may not work for another but that's a very personal thing & you shouldn't judge but try to support them.0 -
*cheers to that* :drinker:
and those things are adorable Loopy. Lol.0 -
Exactly! If I see one more post like "You must eat clean or your not going to lose weight" I am going to scream. I don't want to eat grass all day so if I want to eat some processed food and stay under my calorie goal then gosh darnit I am gonna!
I'm sick of it!!0 -
Agreed! It's gotten bad lately!
I love your profile pic- too cute!0 -
I get it all the time on this site because I love Taco Bell lol!! But on days I eat Taco Bell I work my but off at the gym to "earn" my "unhealthy" meal!! I still stay under my allowed calorie limit and I'm down 72.2 lbs since June 2010 so I'm good with it 0

Loopy, you rock! LOL0

Isn't this a post that is judging people who judge people?
Sorry, I am feeling contrary today.0 -
Well said i totally agree and u know what i think the people that judge other are probably doing the same thing if not worse so they take it out on others!!!!!!!0

Sorry my quotes are not enough to balance it all out...I am trying! =0) You can look up my screen name for the past few days if you want..if you happen to miss them. Make a positive quote post on here every morning.
It doesnt fix the problem but all we can do is help one person by passing them on or making someones elses day.
Share a smile today. =0)0 -

Yes I agree, small measure one person at a time! we are here to encourage and get encouraged and inspired by others!0 -
I tend to stay away from being negative & normally a cheerleader....the only time I'm the voice a reason (or blunt, depending on what they wrote lol) is when it's something down right dangerous that someone is wanting to do. 0

I couldn't agree more. Although there are some diets that I don't agree with, it's not my decision and I always wish anyone the best on whatever path they choose to reach their goals.
Unless I want someone judging me, I won't judge other people. If someone wants to have their thought (as we all do) that's fine, just realize that there's not always a need to share them.0 -
YOU LOOK AMAZING!!! I would love love love to know how you have done such an incredible job with yourself?! I am so utterly in awe of you right now and want what you have. Would you be interested in being friends? I am sure that everyone wants to be your friend, just given all that you have accomplished.I tend to stay away from being negative & normally a cheerleader....the only time I'm the voice a reason (or blunt, depending on what they wrote lol) is when it's something down right dangerous that someone is wanting to do.
On another note...I couldn't agree more with everyone. I get so discourage that I often times want to give up (like today being my bday and I didn't lose a single pound this week because of several choices and because my baby is part vampire and won't sleep!) and I need to come here and get that support, I need people to tell me to keep going, and that "This too shall pass!" I do not need to be kicked while I am already down...I beat myself up enough. To "Uplift and Edify" is why I am here...so I hope that others will want to do the same for me. Just sayin... 0 -
What is "right" for one person, isn't necessarily going to be "right" for the next person. I don't offer advise or opinions, unless someone asks me for it. I don't judge, because I don't want to be judged.
