    This topic AGAIN? *sigh* Look, in a perfect world we would all be nice each other, hold hands and start a love train. However, this is the internet. ANYONE can join and sometimes people like to be mean because it's fun to be mean to strangers. Who cares? It's just a bunch of random people that you don't know in real life.

    Right on! Honesty is good. And humor! We need humor! This cr@p is hard enough already, if you can make me laugh, that's a plus. One of my comments got deleted today because I told someone who wanted to eat more veggies to eat a vegan (because they are full of veggies, duh!) And some vegan got offended, so I got deleted. I was being silly, not vicious. Grain of salt, guys, grain of salt. (Now watch someone flip out about sodium intake . . .)

    Whatever your road, as long as it's healthy and balanced, we are all here for encouragement, advice, a good laugh, and yes, even a slap in the right direction every once in a while.


    Eat a vegan, taken two ways ROFL

    I actually think a lot of it is that people have a really hard time stringing together coherent sentences or in fact reading sentences properly, what ensues is nothing more than people missing the point.

    I've started a few threads where i have basically had to spend pages and PAGES actually trying to get people to read what i actually wrote rather than what they read. It seems to be exceptional difficult for people of this forum, then of course they just add pictures of cats and giggle at how 'funny' they are. Its lame, totally not something i am used to, I find lots of things funny but people laughing at their own rudimentary jokes is not really my bag...

    I even had one woman telling me 'i am not surprised your hungry, you dont eat anything' in a conversation where i had neither said i was hungry and had no asked for comments on my food intake, which, as you can probably see from my open diary, is full of actual food lol

    its bizarre, it makes me not want to ask stuff because the constant re-affirmation because people cannot read is tiring.

    I think you're right.
    Though I confess I'm one of the ones who tends to add pictures of cats.. mainly because the thread has usually gone on so long, or has digressed so far I can't take it any longer. :smile:

    All the negative comments really make me question why I even log in anymore. I want people in my corner telling me I can do it not people telling me I am an idiot for eating a piece of cake.

    You should be logging in to log your food and exercise, and socialize with the people you say you want "in your corner".

    Stay off the forums if you find them to be negative. Negativity is always going to be there. Take the good with the bad and just focus on achieving your goals....not everyone on here will see it the same way as you do.

    Good luck.

    IF YOU DON'T HAVE ANYTHING NICE TO SAY DON'T SAY ANYTHING AT ALL.

    Would you consider this post "nice"?

    Mother, mother
    There's too many of you crying
    Brother, brother, brother
    There's far too many of you dying
    You know we've got to find a way
    To bring some lovin' here today - Ya

    Father, father
    We don't need to escalate
    You see, war is not the answer
    For only love can conquer hate
    You know we've got to find a way
    To bring some lovin' here today

    Picket lines and picket signs
    Don't punish me with brutality
    Talk to me, so you can see
    Oh, what's going on
    What's going on
    Ya, what's going on
    Ah, what's going on

    I don't know, Marvin, I really don't...

    "What I really want in a friend is somebody who will always tell me what I want to hear"


    Is this what I'm hearing?

    I had pizza on Saturday, Four slices. Yum!

    And I had cheesecake and caramel chocolate truffles on Monday (almost 1,000 calories worth). And I lost weight this week. :-)

    Exactly! I've unfriended so many people just for doing that. And, I try hard not to look at the forums, because they just make me feel awful. I've been attacked way too much just for talking about my struggles! I can't do it.

    I had the exact same thought.

    Maybe I'm just more discerning in who I friend or accept as a friend, but no one on my FL has ever attacked anyone over their struggles.

    These forums are really starting to make me sick. There is so much negativity. We are all here for support not to be criticized. As over weight people don't you think we get enough of that as it is. One thing always comes to mind when I read something mean...IF YOU DON'T HAVE ANYTHING NICE TO SAY DON'T SAY ANYTHING AT ALL. Come on everyone, lets all stop beating each other down and help each other acheive the goals we have all been working towards. All the negative comments really make me question why I even log in anymore. I want people in my corner telling me I can do it not people telling me I am an idiot for eating a piece of cake.

    Completely agree! Im pretty sick of being told Im an idiot for not eating carbs! Everyone has their own way of doing it and I have no problem with you eating cake if it works for you :flowerforyou:

    I thought this was going to be a thread about that song by Four Non-Blondes.

    I think we should be able to talk about our struggles and get CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM not insults. Maybe I am reading too much into what some people say on here but a lot of it just makes me mad.
