I wish I could keep threads like this in my back pocket for every time someone posts a thread asking why some people keep their diaries private.

It's her diary. She can log whatever she wants to log. Or not log whatever she wants to log. There's no reason for you to be horrified about anything that you aren't a part of and that you weren't asked to comment on.

And yes, I'm familiar with the shake diets. One of the guys at work did a medically supervised one, lost about 60 pounds and has kept every pound of it off for over a year now. My mom-in-law and step-dad-in-law are both doing one right now, losing steadily and they have weekly doctor visits to make sure that they are physically healthy and responding well to the diet. They both have to exercise for a set amount of time each week and the people running the program started them with just light cardio, have increased the amount of that and will soon be adding in strength training along with the cardio. They also have bi-monthly meetings where different doctors and medical experts come and talk to them about maintaining, general health, keeping a regular workout routine after the program ends, etc. etc.

Would I ever do one? No. But do they work for some people when they are handled correctly? Yes. So let your "friend" keep logging her daily consumption of calories and worry about your own logging.

She's probably just testing to see if all the boys will come to her yard or not.

I love you. :flowerforyou:

It may be part of her personal strategy - have a month with this fairly rigid diet first then when motivated because she will have lost some weight - start to branch out to eating a more life long diet. Different things work for different people.

.. in being on MFP if you're on a specific diet such as the cambridge diet? :S

I was horrified when I went onto a 'friends' food log to see Breakfast: Milkshake, Lunch: Milkshake, Dinner: Milkshake. She was at least 600 calories under her goal. What's the point in calculating how many calories you should eat in order lose weight the healthy way if all you're gonna consume is fricking milkshakes? and what's the point in even logging your milkshake when you know exactly how much of whatever is in your milkshake?

Milkshake! what the f-ing f?

Seriously what business is it of yours if she has shakes or not? Have you actually asked her why she is doing what she is or have you come on here to troll and abuse the girl behind her back? More than likely its the latter. Before you point two fingers at someone else look in the mirror and point them back at yourself because really darling unless you walk a day in her shoes don't worry what she is doing and jog on with your own journey!!!
