    It doesn't bother me when people use the site to lose 5 pounds. I mean 5 or 100, either way-good for them!

    ^ I agree. 1lb, 5lbs, 50+lbs so what!? People are here to get healthier - and for some that even means gaining weight. Why does it concern/bother you so much what other people's goals are? Just focus on yourself and being the best you that you can be!!! :)

    As far as my pet peeve - I wish MFP had a 'like' button haha. And I wish people were kinder on the forums in general.

    I wish there was a way to track how much weight you want to gain using your ticker. :( Mine reads "o". Yes this is a fitness site not just weight loss. One of my friends (Puffy) said so. Believe it or not there are some of us struggling to gain and keep weight. It is sooo frustrating and makes you sad to see you've lost x amount of weight. I just can't afford to lose. I came here to get help, tips, and support to meet this serious goal.

    I'm glad we met and you will not let people like this discourage you from your goal to get healthy! Hugs, sweetie!

    My one major pet peeve about mfp is that stupid topics like this one with no useful information get more attention than good topics which die out in 10 posts.

    Wow --- It's not all about huge weight losses ..
    Not like you've got tons of weight to go either ... what will happen when you have 5 lbs left to go???? You'll be in the same boat ... Keep your nasty opinions to yourself.

    nothing nasty about it. not intended to belittle anyone but it just irks me, that's all.

    Is 5 the cutoff? I mean, if someone has 6 to lose, is that okay but 5 is irksome? Have you thought about why it irks you?

    I get soooo annoyed seeing someone on here that wants to lose 5 pounds. REALLY?! Come on. Especially, when people are here trying to lose hundreds of pounds. I'm all about getting healthy & maintaining but a 5 pound goal?

    :tongue: *Keep your hate mail, it's just my opinion* :glasses:

    But my goal is roughly 5 pounds!


    I am going to de-activate and go to www.myfivepoundgoal.com


    :sad:

    My pet peeeve is when everyone just says WTG, great burn, way to stay under your calorie goal. But they never look at the diary, the person has a blocked diary, the diary shows they ate tons of fat or all unhealty fast food. Be freaking honest with me....like:

    Why the Hell are you eating all that fast food!!! Or are you an Alcoholic you drink everyday!!!!

    I appreciate what you're saying and empathize with you. But to those of us with ten or less pounds to lose, that goals is just as important to us, just as hard to get to, as yours. Some of us have lost many pounds and are down to five. Others just simply have five or ten or whatever. This site is not the property of those with large amounts of weight to lose. In fact, it's a fitness site as much as a weight loss site.

    This is myFITNESSpal. Not myLOSEWEIGHTpal. Some people are on here to actually gain muscle (and weight). It's about being a healthier person, just because you have a particular goal and use MFP doesn't mean that everyone else has to have the same goals to use the same tools.

    Yes she is right! I suppose you could simply add it to exercise list?? Not sure I'm still learning the display.

    Oh quick question: Does anyone know how to start a new topic thread? I couldn't find a hot - to on this anywhere on the site...
