Love it!0 -
I did not read the whole thread but I think the gist of it was the open was making fun of another poster. I wonder who that posher is and if he/she understood or if they thought this list was real.0

I can assure you that this post was not directed at any one specific person.0 -
What was the purpose of this thread? To make a point? Teach a lesson? Poke fun?
Is it successful when those that "get it" disparage those that don't?
Satire doesn't work if your audience doesn't realize it's satire. At some point it just becomes contempt.
Satire works perfectly when it points out that reality has gotten so jacked up that people can't tell the difference between it and nonsense.
Exactly 100% this^^^^^^^0 -
It would have been easier for you to mention "What to eat" rather than "What not to eat"
I believe in some but not all - You live in today's world if you have to leave ALL these- you better go to the wild and start eating off the trees whatever you get. Food is meant to be enjoyed and cherished but definitely not get addicted to.
Enjoy in moderation and nothing is bad (of course you can't eat cakes, candies, bacon everyday) but things like coffee aaaahhhh ! You know what i am saying !!0 -
I don't know that coffee ever made anyone fat.
I see that you're trying to share some information here, but IMO this is the sort of thing that scares people away from healthy eating, and perpetrates the idea that we all live off lettuce and lemon water.0 -
You can, just make sure to get it uncured. Ham has high sugar and often salt content, and many cured hams have way too high of sodium. But that being said, bacon is a great source of protein, just eat in moderation.0

I would like a list with food I can eat!!!!!!!!!
Celery. But only if you swallow it whole so you don't negate the calories with chewing.

LOL, what a ridiculous list! So what is left to eat?!
Seriously, salted nuts? They don't even have that much salt. I have salted nuts every day with lunch and they only have 125mg of salt per serving!!
This list says to cut out GUM...seriously GUM.
It says to cut out coffee! Why? Coffee actually probably helps you lose weight if anything, since it speeds up your metabolism (and causes panic attacks, if you're me).
This is why so many people find it so hard to lose weight. Because they follow restrictive diets like this and then give up and relapse. Junk food is not heroin. With junk food it's all about moderation and amounts.
I only lost 10 pounds, but during my "weight loss journey" I ate fried foods, fast food, hamburgers and french fries, sugar, honey, potato chips, chocolate, cookies, candy, cake and other baked goods, desserts, salted nuts, sausage, T-bone steak, pasta with white flour, cereal, gum, diet soda, and bottled green tea with sugar. I didn't have this all in one day obviously, but these were all foods I had at some point while dieting. And yet the weight still came off super easily because I stayed in a calorie deficit for the majority of days I was dieting.
So yeah basically this article is full of it.0 -

Cut down on or try to stop drinking alcohol. Quick fact: Alcohol is basically the refined juice of natural foods which makes it a drink of pure concentrated sugar that will make you gain fat easily and…
AVOID the grocery store snack aisle - Stop eating potato chips, popcorn, cookies, candy, ice cream, cakes, etc. The ingredients in these foods make you want to eat more and the companies who make these snack foods know you'll stay addicted to them (even after you gained lots of weight eating their snacks) but…
The companies don't care if you gain weight because of their snack products as long as they make their money off YOU and if you're addicted to snacks - Read 30+ ways to curb your cravings for snacks, salt & sugar
You need to make a strong effort to cut down on your salt & sugar intake because too much salt & sugar causes you to gain water weight making you look fatter than you already are and…

Hamburgers & French fries
Table sugar
Plain Jam
salted nuts
smoked nuts

Soft drinks
Tinned fruits
Chutney
Pickle
bacon
sausage
cured meats
ham
fatty cuts of steak like T-bone & rib-eye
Puddings
Corn syrup
Fruit juice - It's better to eat raw fruit instead of fruit juice because fruits contain more fiber and the juice will always contain more sugar than the actual fruit.
Cake
Bread made with white flour
Soda pop, such as Coke, Pepsi, Mountain Dew, etc.
All baked goods made with white flour
Coffee
Biscuits
Fast foods
Pasta made with white flour

They'll all literally make you fat instantly if you touch them, and give you cancer. And make you hate puppies.0 -

or
Option B: Maybe it isn't absolutely essential for your success that you don't eat any of the foods on this list. Perhaps I should have done some more reading first.
In your original post you said " I don't know if everything on this list is true, but maybe it will help you".
Now you are saying that "I don't know if everything on this list is true, but maybe it will help you."
With the number of posts you already know, people don't like others posting facts that aren't facts.0
