Deleted Friend.

Because she said very mean things to people on the Boards. She has actually been banned, I hear, so now she just blogs. Too bad, because when she isn't being obnoxious, she has a lot of interesting things to say and a very compelling life story. Oh well.

I haven't deleted anyone (yet) but I did decline a FR because the message included with the request was filled with how I am managing my diabetes all wrong and I shouldn't listen to my PCP and dietician.

I've never noticed if someone deleted me & so far I've never had to delete anyone. I don't have any crazy stories to share lol!

I JUST deleted a person because all I saw on their newsfeed was how fat they were and how they were going to break their scale. Then they would complain about how they were told to take their calories up from 800 to 1500 and now was gaining even more...blah blah blah. I don't like being bombarded by that kind of negativity.

I know exactly who you're referring to!

I think I might know who the OP is referring to, as well. I'm an atheist but I just roll with it. I can handle positive preaching (I just ignore it), but if someone gets judge-y in their religion (the reason I'm an atheist to begin with), that's going to be a problem.

I've only deleted inactive people, and one girl who was only eating 800 calories a day, most of it vodka. I have no problem with drinking - I devote 200-300 calories to wine VERY regularly! But she was seriously eating next--to-nothing and then having vodka and 7up as supper. Scary.

I just get a wild hair up my as s once in a while and go on a deleting spree. Nothing personal.

I have never heard that expression before. Well done, sir. :flowerforyou:

I thought it was a wild hare up ones *kitten*.... but a wild hair is an even better mental image :drinker: (and I could be wrong because I don't think I've ever seen that expression written down before)



my funniest deletion story was being deleted for not taking the right side in a star wars v star trek question (I grew up with both. you can't make me choose just one!). I don't think there's anything wrong with her deleting me for that reason either.... it just makes for a funny anecdote for a thread like this.

I delete for inactivity nothing for 1 month your gone and I've deleted for eating under the 1200 calorie limit then not listening to advice saying it's dangerous or people adding 5 minutes of lunges and burning 500 cals, or people exercising and earning themselves 2000 cals, just total exaggeration.

Inactivity mostly, though occasionally just flooding my newsfeed with babble about the minutiae of their day - if I want that sort of meaningless trivia from someone I don't know in real life, I can log into Twitter.

I have deleted for inactivity. Usually on a quarterly basis. I'll sort the FL by last login, go to the last page and start sending messages. Wait a few days then X out the ones I don't hear from! I have to admit that there have been a few that messaged me back to say thanks and that they really needed the reminder to get back on track. I don't delete for creepiness - after all, you'd have to be creepier than me and that's a stretch!

i delete hippies.

I deleted someone who's entire profile was private, I mean the whole thing, only thing you saw was her pic and name...why accept friend requests if you want to keep EVERYTHING private? I enjoy looking at people's diary's for food ideas, and to see their goals, weight loss progress, etc.. so it didn't make any sense to me to have her as a friend if all I could see was her name lol

They're not your "friends", people! They're are random internet strangers that might become an acquaintance (sp?) ffs!

Noooo!!! Say it isn't so!!! I need these people to validate my self-worth and tell me I'm a good person!!

I delete for inactivity, mainly. But I have and will continue to delete people that habitually eat very, very low calories, people who complain excessively and who just seem chronically negative and unhappy and people willfully and obstinately uneducated about diet and nutrition who preach that ignorance to others. I can handle a wide array of differing personalities, opinions and weight loss approaches. I don't care if you eat clean, dirty, IIFYM, Paleo, Low Carb, Primal, Vegan or whatever. I'm cool with pretty much anything, but sometimes you just have to say "ok, that's enough of that".

It may seem harsh, and I cycle through a lot of pals that way, but I genuinely look forward to supporting, interacting with and cheering on my pals so I can't be bothered to weed through a bunch of status posts that make me cringe. I'd rather have people on my list that add to the positive energy and focus I try to cultivate in my journey.

I no, rite? Some people are just so negative!

I usually delete people after they've been inactive for a few months. I want active friends.
