    You have control of who you add on here. Luckily I've not had anyone like that target me so far. Just take them off your friends list. People like that don't deserve the support that the kind people give them.

    Good luck with your weightloss journey.

    Get rid of the friends that are mean or not helpful to your journey. Then get a new batch of friends. :-) There are a lot of fantastic and supportive people on this site, the trick is finding the ones that can help YOU in YOUR journey. And ones that you can encourage in return. One thing that's often helpful is looking for people that are either in a similar position to where you are now (if you have a lot of weight to lose, look for other people who also have a lot to lose, they'll 'get you') or looking for people who used to be where you are now but have already made great progress. They can give you great tips and support that you may find more meaningful coming from someone who has a grasp of what you're going through. :-)

    Not all skinny people are like that, but I have seen some that are just plain rude as well as bigger people. If you aren't a skinny-people hater, you can feel free to add me, and I will be more than happy to support you. I think all of my friends would vouch for me that I only give advice when asked and I always try to offer only helpful advice in a kind manner. I certainly know that I don't know everything and I ask for advice often myself. And I eat more than just carrots and salads.

    Delete them. You don't need someone, who you don't even know.. thinking they know so much about you. Then Block.

    How do you deal with them?

    I think the fairly obvious way would be to delete them. Pretty simple.

    You know the super skinny people who add you, attack your diary and think what they're doing is right.
    No, never happened to me.
    If I was fake, would I get the iPhone app on my iPod ?
    I don't know. Next question, please.
    Would I login everyday via my iPod ?
    I don't know. Next question, please.
    Would I make a note to try and log EVERYTHING I ate?
    I don't know. Next question, please.
    Would I VOLUNTEER to walk to the gas station in town (only 15 minute walk) when we need bread / milk etc ?
    I don't know. Next question, please.
    Would I walk to town EVERYDAY ?
    I don't know.

    This was fun. We should do it every Friday.

    You have two options:

    A) Plan out a horrible scheme involving their death. Make sure the scheme includes the loss of their account, loss of their internet, loss of their home, keying their car, kidnapping their kids, hiring a monkey, making lemonade, having an affair with her husband, embarrassing photos of them, and bankruptcy.

    or

    B) Ignore them.


    I am OK with all of option A, but how do you go about hiring a monkey?

    I would get feisty and then defriend, just defriending would be the better option though..
