Although one of these might be better given where the OP lives.
drooling... it's like, breakfast meets nachos
You can't see it, but there ARE two 1/3 pound hamburger patties on an open faced bun at the core of that thing0 -
Is this how the community really supports each other?
Joined yesterday, this is my 4th post and so far i got this one reply in my inbox.
Good luck on your journey everyone but I'm not in a place to deal with this kind of behavior. I wonder how many others like me could have really used this site to help themselves. The counters were cool but since I log in every time I eat I'm going to look at the forums and this isn't any good. Dealing with this is okay on other forums but I was hoping for support here and was skeptical and now i see i was right.

Hey meadowbreeze,
I saw your response to one of the other MFP people looking for new friends. I am writing about your comment, about going it alone and avoiding the forums. I agree with avoiding the forums but you can add friends and see what they post every day. It shows up on your "home" page and is a little like Facebook.
Having friends is totally separate from the forums and really helpful to maintain progress and exchange ideas. There are a lot of really normal, regular folks on MFP but most of the forum lurkers are simply rude and obnoxious. So, I just wanted to encourage you to not seek friends on here. Best of luck with your journey,
Meadowbreeze, trying to lose a significant amount of weight without a sense of humor is not going to be easy. Good luck.0 -
How does one measure exercise done by the eyes? I just burned some kcals reading the thread in one go.
I don't know, but Dr. Oz says that 2 hours of REM sleep burns 150 more calories, so I'm sure you can use that in your calculation:

is this real life?
Is this just fantasy?
No escape from reality.
Open your eyes
Look up to the skies and see
I'm just a poor boy, I need no sympathy
Anyway the wind blows.

<----or this
You look like a delicious friend!0 -
Fine then. Beat by a matter of seconds...
I will just post another delicious food...
All of these items are agreeably delicious.0 -
I mean you have to be joking right?
It's their fault that YOU haven't been losing?
I'm not joking at all!
While I quite agree that blaming your friends for your lack of weight loss is a bit over the top, I can totally understand deleting friends that are not providing the motivation that you need. We all have our strengths and weaknesses and if food porn is a weakness for you, then it's best to be rid of it. Good luck to you!0 -

how many calories does the fandango burn? cuz I WILL do the fandango!0 -
Well seeing as the OP has only been a member since June 2013 (so two months at most) and already has almost 1,000 forum posts, maybe the solution would be to turn off the damn computer and take a walk!0

It's not that hard to avoid the forums. Sometimes I go *hours* without the invigorating shot of insanity.0 -
