    Yes, there are some genuinely unpleasant people here. Just ignore them, or respond directly to them if they bother you.


    This is very true... Mike and his boyfriend DMZ come to mind off-hand...

    Now you're just being mean......

    I haven't been posting or even reading these posts very much until recently, but wow.....has anyone else noticed how mean people can be? I'm afraid to ask any questions for fear of being ridiculed for being utterly ignorant about how my own body works. Yes, I'd like to lose weight; Yes, I realize it takes hard work and dedication; Yes, I am HUMAN and make mistakes, excuses, missteps, etc. No one is perfect.

    As I said, just an observation.

    Look. Life is cold and cruel. People here are very supportive. What do you want?

    Damn I'm so tired of weepy moist people coming and whining because some people on here can be a little blunt. Truth hurts. Deal...


    My point exactly to what I posted a few minutes ago...RUDE!

    Hey if the OP or anyone wants to add me as friend for inspiration and advice. Please feel free. There is so much awesome beauty in the world and around us that I just do give two flying flips bout the negativity anymore. You have to move right past it without so much of a thought! Once you build a good circle around you of people who are happy with themselves and life....the negativity melts away! Good Luck!

    ^^^^^ This.... Me too, you can add me as well! I'm very encouraging and supportive.

    Too many want their hands held while they continue to shift responsibility of taking care of themselves.
    Research, read and learn before posting or asking things that have already been addressed.
    It gets frustrating to those who have gathered and applied or supplied information that is readily available on this site.

    I think it's rude of you going around calling people rude. So there's that.

    Is it rude of me to tell you to get a life? I find it funny that people are spending time on here reading topics that people are posting
    and then complaining about it...
    Simple solution...don't read this thread! Go read another one that will suit you.
