    Thanks for this thread!
    But what's a gif? Well i think i know what it is but is it an acronym or what?
    Forgive my ignorance and please don't be rude to me! :D
    Gosh, why are people so stupid?! Just kidding. You're not stupid at all, just had to throw that in because of the thread. Don't hate me, please! :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

    A gif is the "moving picture" things that people post. It stands for Graphics Interchange Format.

    :flowerforyou: the only reason you would get mean replies is if now you argued with everyone that gif really means Giraffe In vitro Fertilization.

    What makes you think you can treat someone like they are stupid?

    I'm strangely attracted to this cartoon . . .

    It's not that strange when you consider all the photoshop we are attracted to.

    Well, several times I've tried to be helpful by posting what worked *for me* and been attacked.
    A lot of times people simply don't want to hear what worked, because they don't want to hear it. Get over it, I'm not going to say you're doing great for eating pizza and pop tarts.

    A lot of people are doing great eating pizza and pop tarts. Demonizing certain foods is dumb.

    Thank you for this. It is now the image that will pop into my head anytime someone mentions demonizing foods.

    You can be honest, and still be respectful of others' feelings.

    There's a difference between being respectful and sugar-coating things that the whiners don't seem to grasp. When someone gives them some advice that might not be what they want to hear or may be kind of difficult to listen to without all the flowery "you're so perfect the way you are" language with it, they get offended. That doesn't mean the person who gave the advice was necessarily disrespectful.

    I wrote this yesterday:

    animated_winner_is.gif

    OMG ARE YOU MAKING FUN OF ME? UHH PPL ON THIS SITE ARE SO RUDE! lol :P just kidding :D

    but really I think the only thing that may get on someone's nerves is when you ask a question and do not have an open mind to the answers you may get. This website has been amazing for me! these people take the time to give the same help often and its so someone can have the gift of results that can be maintained.

    I think you should take wording with a grain of salt. got to get thicker skin :)

    I'm confused... we've got labels for the whiners & the sugar coaters... do we have a label for the people that post in the "Rate the person above you" threads. Would they be the needy & the liars? :laugh:

    When somebody explains that they are having difficulty eating 1200 calories, they get called stupid or are talked down to. I've found that providing a list of healthy, higher calorie food options is more effective. I have it saved so I can copy and paste it instead of typing it out thousands of times.

    I rarely see anyone called stupid. I think people read too much into the comments....

    [quote[
    I net zero calories pre day by eating 800 calories and working cardio 3 hours a day! Why am I so hungry and not losing safely?

    You're doing it wrong. Eat more. Lose weight at a safe rate.

    Why are you calling me stupid? You're so mean! [/quote]

    In this example, nobody told the OP that they were stupid, they just told them they were doing it wrong. Yet the OP after being corrected felt stupid, and perceived that message as an attack. This happens waaaay too much.
