    Will you feel the same when you have only 5 to go? How do you feel about those counting to gain?

    After all, it is My "Fitness" Pal. And fitness isn't all about weight, ya know.

    My pet peeve are posts in all caps. The caps lock key is located in the middle row, left side of your keyboard. It acts like a toggle switch - ON/off. Try it.

    As for the 5lbs, who cares if that is a goal of someone? I weight 210, want to get to 200. Someone else who is smaller weighs 110, and has a goal of 105. Same % of weight to lose, but because mine is 10 and theirs is 5, that upsets you?

    Seriously?

    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:

    Fact.

    Seriously? I gained 15 and that was the wake up call I needed before I needed to lose hundred. Don't belittle someone for trying to make themselves healthier, regardless of their goal.

    Agree!

    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.

    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.

    You may see someones goal at 5 pounds, how do you know they didnt already lose 50 pounds before they found this site? I lost 22 lbs before I found this website...I have 1 pound left to get to my goal. And I'm still here. Just b/c people don't have hundreds of pounds to lose doesn't mean we don't belong here. B/c people who don't have much to lose work just as hard to lose the last 5-10 pounds as someone who has 50-100 pounds to lose. It's called myFITNESSpal..not myHUGEWEIGHTLOSSpal....ps: my biggest pet peeve..people with rude nasty comments who think they're better than everyone else
