    You're funny Steve, but you are a bit fat aren't you?

    @ the last comment : I'd take a bit of fat over outright meanness anytime!

    @ Steve2kay : Thank you for a hilarious post. It's great to keep things in perspective while trying to battle scale anxieties. :)

    For the 5th time in this thread (wish I hadn't said anything now!) I was paying homage to Steve's young lad!


    If you check out Steve's profile you will see that his inspiration for losing weight was the following:

    My 7 year old son said to me... "mummy's not fat is she? and I'm not fat, and you're....well you're lovely...but you are a bit fat aren't you?"

    I merely paid homage to this delightful anecdote

    Steve himself has also commented...
    It's from my profile, no offense taken.

    I have absolutely no idea what Steve weighs, whether he is fat, skinny, enormous, muscly, short or tall - means nothing at all. I saw his cycle helmet and looked at his profile where I saw what his lad said

    How come so many people saw my 'mean' comment, yet failed to see the half a dozen explanatory ones???

    Posts like these make me love MFP even more. Thank you, Steve!


    And Wonderob, I don't think you need to defend yourself anymore. You've done well so far and people should really read all the comments. When I read your original comment, I assumed it had to be either from his profile or y'all were MFP friends, and took it as friendly banter. Unfortunately, many people think the worse when on public forums.

    Thanks cs - in fairness to those that commented, there are an awful lot of mean things said on MFP so I guess it's understandable to some extent

    No harm done though so all is good now - shame to let anything stand in the way of this funny thread though so I'll bow out!

    Funny! I know you jest, but I have to say that I actually think sometimes, "I'll monitor everything, and see if I can find a pattern" with my weight fluctuations, but how can you monitor everything??!! You can't. That being said, I lose weight when I eat a mega-load of raw veggies, pound H20, and avoid eating after 6:30 p.m. I gain weight when I blink.

    Maybe you should eat your broccoli with cauliflower LOL.
  • Does the Mr Tickle mug only prevent tea from making me put on weight, or does it work for other things? Could I eat icecream or cake or drink a lot of wine, and not gain anything, as long as it was from the Mr Tickle mug?
