    Dont sweat ppl mocking u. If thats what u wana do go for it. Life is too short. Do what works within reason.

    Why do you want to start another war? You bad!

    I would love to be on the OTHER side of this argument. At my age, height and level of activity (I exercise regularly) if I eat more than 1200 calories a day, I instantly put on weight.
    I'm currently battleing with the weight I've put when I moved and traded working out for working on the house that we're getting settled into here.
    I'm still trying to get back the level exercise (so that I can eat more! among other things) I was at six months ago but these 15+ extra pounds are f'n killing me.

    This can go on threads titled:

    to the self lobotomizers

    to the people who like shooting themselves in the foot

    to the people who like to jump on moving trains

    to the people who cry themselves to sleep at night

    The list goes on.
    Most of the list is bad advice.

    Break the fear of food and learn how to eat correctly.

    I want to add but it's pointless. All I will say is I highly doubt that even half of the posters on this thread need to cut to 1200 to lose weight. That is all, carry on.......:sad:

    to all the 1200 calorie people.
    Please do not eat me when you finally snap.

    Till then, best of luck! :)

    Just know that with a smartazz attitude and comment like that, you really lay yourself open for some really, really NASTY and MEAN comments. It's people like you that piss people like me off. Be glad this 1200 calorie person has had her coffee this morning. Moving on.

    ohhhhh, *grabs popcorn*
    You better be sharing!

    "success" of a loss of over 100lb means the person HAD over 100lb to lose in the first place.

    If I were 100lb overweight, i'd be losing weight at 2000+ cal a day too.


    Hhaha! Exactly! I'm not for or against this thread....my mantra...do whatever the hell works for you. None of my business.

    Amen, I am 600% over being told by other MFP users I'm starving myself and totally ignoring/mocking my legitimate questions around my calorie goal. I think my doctor knows better than them, thanks.

    Agreed.I feel that those small minded people who mock others posts are probably so perfect now that they can move on and start their own page.
