Ohhhhh my.

I thought you were looking for support and ways to burn it off. I didn't realize you were looking for sympathy and shelter from the MFP bullies. Since I'm at work, I can't post an appropriate pic or gif, but....

<insert gif of Sheldon Cooper saying "there, there" and then singing soft kitty>

Excuse me? What is your problem? Is there any reason you need to be so rude? I wasn't merely looking for sympathy. I was looking for support and advice. And my response to the others wasn't meant to be rude in any way, I was simply saying that to me it is a lot so I didn't want to just brush it off. Please learn to not be such an *kitten* in the future.

Well damn.

You seem to be kinda angry there OP. May I suggest...more food? Always perks me right up.

I'm just not interested in sarcastic, smart *kitten* that's all

Then you should probably stay off the boards. :flowerforyou:

I have realized that and decided I will be doing that from now on.

And life too. :flowerforyou:

"And life too" what? I should stay off of life?

Anything to avoid the sarcastic smart a**es.

'

Thanks for the oh-so-helpful suggestion, but I think I am going to stay 'on' life for now.

(See, I can be sarcastic too).

I was mainly referring to smart *kitten* on community boards on websites where I expect support rather than discouragement.

You might want to review the Community Guidelines sonce you're in violation of them by attacking other users ( calling us *kitten* and smart *kitten*)

I don't believe I referred to anyone specifically as an *kitten* or a smart *kitten*.

You inferred that the majority of the people responding are...which is still insulting.

Well, I find pretty much everything you have said insulting too.

Everything? Really? So advising you to not demonize foods, that you aren't consuming "empty calories", etc is insulting.

Please...do go on.

That was definitely helpful advice, and I thanked you for it. However, all of your posts contain some sort of sarcasm or insult.

"So no sense of humor. Got it. You might need to retrain your brain on your attitude towards food. It's a legit suggestion because demonizing foods is what is leading you to freak out instead of realizing that one day doesn't make you fat. "

Just because I'm not really all that fond of people's sarcasm and discouraging comments means I have no sense of humor? I find THAT insulting because that is labelling me as some grumpy person when really I'm quite the opposite, generally.

This stuff is what makes me stay off of forums. It would be so nice if people wanted to be helpful and commented, and people who didn't just didn't. The old mama always said if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say it at all.

But it's the internet. People know they are millions of miles away from you and you'll never find them and they feel anonymous. it's the whole mob mentality. It's like you can't literally see them doing or saying these things, so they're safe. Unfortunately, you just have to get used to it.

In fact, there are quite a few people who intentionally go around just trying to start stuff on these forums. So try not to get worked up and just ignore the haters. Now, don't get me wrong, I'm all for the tough love, like when people said hit the gym, eat less at dinner, and get over it. But no one needs to be putting other people down. This is supposed to be a site for support and advice (which, honestly, most users give, even if they aren't nice about it). But guess what, it's also a site for smart alecs, people who want to show off their mostly-naked bodies, dating, extramarital flirting, playing ridiculously assinine games about movies and would you date the person above you, etc. You know, in a perfect world, it'd be a web site for getting support if you want to lose weight or get in shape.

But it ain't.

Note: I don't remember promising to support or advise anyone when I signed up for MFP.

What's the point, then? Do you just want to show off your body, and seek attention, and put others down when they're simply looking for support?

As you said. You can tell a lot about people through their posts.

300 calories really? That is like one serving of oatmeal...log it and move on ...

Yeah but oatmeal is full of fibre, low fat, and protein. This beverage was mostly just high in sugar and bad fat.

I don't understand all these people who think all food is equivalent because their calorie amount is equivalent.

then stop drinking them and have something else....problem solved...

No. "I" said that, not Achyra in regards to telling about people through their posts. And Achyra has actually lent a lot of advice and her own experiences in the majority of her posts here, so not sure what you are saying...
