Your food is no cleaner than mine

^^^^THIS! I agree that anyone eating even remotely different get bashed here and quite frankly don't like it. I'd be curious as to how many doing the bashing are actually being honest in their open diaries? Did they really eat that ice cream or did they just record they ate it? My bet is on not eating it but recording they did just so they can argue! I think I'll remove my ticker as well. Thanks for the tip.

Wow.

You believe people are logging false entries just to argue. . . interesting. Best of luck with your goals.

I closed my food diary down to Friends Only. Frankly they're the only people I really care for opinions from on these matters. I had it fully open and got repeatedly blasted because my calorie intake was "too low" lol. Translated that just means I'm actually losing weight and made the haters feel bad for their poor choices.

Is that honestly how you translated this? Interesting rationalization.

You see, we actually spend our time between three of our homes, one main, two vacation, only at our main residence 8 months of the year.

This reminds me of someone else who used to be on MFP. Interesting.

Of course it does because that is your way of being nosey, trying to get information that is none of your business. I've been on MFP since November 2013 shortly after discovering it through Runtastic.

Oh good. Now, we have haters . . .

Oh they've been around for a while. One of my personal favorites was like my second week on here. This chick claimed she just had to make 9PM runs for a giant Frosty, because if not her lifts and running would totally suffer the next day. I was reported for pointing out that I wouldn't do the same because it seemed like a pretty dumba** idea to me, and I lift just fine without drinking giant glasses of pure sugar.

I don't see that girl around much these days. I suspect we will see her again though, one day when she realizes you can never outrun or outlift your fork, and those 9PM Frosty runs come back to bite her in the rear end.

I don't know. Since you're one of the ones going all bro-tastic, you tell me.

Huh? :huh: What is my "way of being nosey" and trying to get information that is none of my business?

1) Questioning your conclusion that people are logging fake ice cream entries (that fall within their calorie limits, BTW) for the sole purpose of an argument on the internet? 2) Questioning your conclusion that people questioning your "too low" calorie intake was because they were jealous haters and they felt bad about their food choices? 3) Or that you reminded me of someone else who had a tendency to make humblebrag posts about her relative wealth? 4) Some other assumption you're making that I will also probably laugh at?

(I hope it's 4).)

Well, you did a bit of misquoting because (2) isn't mine. Funny how you did that to make a point. My diary has never been open so no one can question anything in that respect.

Nah, honest mistake on number (2) because I didn't scroll back to confirm the source of each of the quotes in my original post.

The rest of my post stands though (but I still didn't confirm. I'm sure someone will straighten me out if I misquoted in any way). Still don't see how my post was read as my being nosy. No worries though. Good thing, too, because locked diary, closed profile, and an inspirational quote as an avi.

Best of luck with all your health and fitness goals. :flowerforyou:

I hate making a mistake with #2. You think it's just a little gas and then... MISTAKE!

Sorry, I just couldn't help myself. Well I could but I chose not to.

I'm flattered :blushing: Thank-you for the well wishes.

The only people here who boast & brag about their food are the "dirty eaters." I don't see clean eaters posting threads about "30 day spinach challenges" or "30 day apple challenges."

Or veggie eating challenges. Oh wait, there's one going on right now!

I don't get any comments about anything in my cart usually. I remember once a guy commented on the cupcakes i had in my basket. He said.. I don't eat sweets, not my thing. I just smiled and said. tat's probably a good thing. I don't comment on others basket either. Although I was in Sams club a few weeks ago and was astounded by one gentlemen's cart (2 actually) piled high with hostess and chip and soda.. Most likely he own a small store.. but the sheer quantity he had just caught my attention. I didn't say anything to him.

No one has ever commented on anything in my cart but a checker. Mostly positive--but extremely rarely some weird non-positive comment that just seems strange from a checker. For example, one time in Myrtle Beach years ago the checker decided to try and shame us for buying beer on a Sunday. The idea of commenting on what's in someone else's cart just seems bizarre to me.

When anyone tells me about their clean eating or Paleo diet or Primal etc etc... I just wonder what fad they're going to try next.

WTF that thing is REAL i thought they made it up for that south-park episode. Seriously laughing here now.

The choice to keep their diary closed remains solely with the member. There are a multitude of reasons why a member would keep their diary closed and in some cases it would be best if they did for the sake of their own progress. If they are asking for help with their food choices or asking why they aren't losing, perhaps opening the diary briefly would help others in their replies BUT in many cases it just opens that person up to unnecessary criticism. I personally don't need the negativity others would bring over any entry in my diary and I really don't feel it is anyone's business what I eat since I'm not asking for help with my food choices and I have lost the weight I wanted to plus some. I also do not feel it is proper for other to shame or pressure those who choose to keep their food diaries private. You do you, I will do me!

That's a fascinating translation, right there.

Fascinating is one way to put it. Self-rationalization is another...
