...being mean in the forums.

What can I do to get over a plateau like this? I've opened up my posting history. Do I just need to post more?

Please help.

    Cut to 1200 calories per day, or less, you'll be mean again in no time.

    All the typing made your fingers bulky. You need to spot reduce to get more flexible.

    THIS. being hangry really helps. also try to cut your carb intake to 20g or less per day. that will drop the niceties right off!

    I feel like being terribly mean in real life but you know. Having to be a grownup and stuff. Maybe I can take over the mean posting for a while.

    I felt like that all too recently. I cut myself some slack & in about 10 days - 2 weeks I was ready to come back.

    You've gotten a lot of good advice here, such as becoming hangry, and the bulky fingers bit. You have our support (although not sure if that helps you or makes it more difficult for you). We believe in you! You'll be back to mean posting in no time! Just keep trying and soon you'll be mean posting without even thinking about it. You Got this! :drinker: Oh, that's a good idea, try drinking, that usually helps with mean posting!!

    Have you thought about doing a cleanse? Or juicing? Or expensive protein shakes sold as part of a multi-level marketing scheme?

    Hmm. So, I have it all backwards. I'm mean to ppl IRL. Maybe I should reverse it and come to MFP and take my aggression out on you guys and just block you when you get upset. This is perfect. :bigsmile:

    Stop beating yourself up over this. We all go through times when we are actually nice to people.

    It is easy to blame yourself when really you should be blaming other people for your failure.

    Just try to remember that Unicorns do not exist, rainbows are only water and women do not poop glitter.

    Get back on track with small steps. Try to utilise some sarcasm every day. Then you can build up to being offensive and before you know it you will be right back on form with all out meanness.

    You will notice the results quite quickly and once you realise that you CAN be offensive and make people butt hurt your confidence will come back.

    Good luck on your journey. I look forward to you being mean to me in the forums :drinker:

    It seems to me that you've gotten some really appropriate advice here, but apparently you're not going to listen to any of it until someone tells you what you want to hear. Just go ahead doing what you want to do and stop asking for advice if you're not going to listen to any reasonable suggestions.

    All of you are wrong. None of your advice will work for me. I've done all of that before and it doesn't work. You all don't know me and my unique situation.

    Why is everyone on MFP so...

    ...uh...

    ...never mind.

    Ask for advice on something very specific and then read all of the replies that don't address your specific question. Made me a little mean.....might help you also.
