Maybe this isn't related to anything...however, this is "my fitness pal" and not "my weight loss pal". People are here for ALL kinds of reasons and goals...losing weight, gaining weight and muscle, staying healthy, getting in better shape physically...
However many people ARE here for losing weight, and some of them may be living very solitary lives- not talking about their weight loss to others for fear of failure, or maybe they have pulled away from others because of their weight,and they are looking for someplace just to be themselves and feel comfortable... finding support and acceptance is important to most here I am sure, therefore it IS a social community. I am sorry you are annoyed with someone and I hope that you can find a way to understand and accept the different personalities of the people on MFP.
Spot on, well said.0 -

I can see your point although I think that some of us, I know I was complaining about my husband yesterday, also bring up points that cause stress in our lives. Stress may be a trigger for bingers and by getting it out there it helps to release. They/we get support that we are lacking somewhere else in our lives. If it affects you negatively then I would de-friend them because you do not want to do anything to adversely affect YOUR fitness either.0

I kinda feel like she asked for it. Then again, I agree with her somewhat about the bathroom. I really dont want to hear about someone having the squirts!

I use this as a social network as well as a fitness/weight loss guide and help. If it weren't partly a social network there wouldn't be a forum, or an option to add friends, or send messages! It would strictly be a calorie and exercise log!
This post kind of upsets me because I am an emotional eater and instead of eating I blog, and write about my feelings....which in turn helps my weight loss! The acceptance of others on this site and being able to share stories, tips, etc. with others is a big reason why I joined this site.
All I can say is that I agree with the others, de-friend them or don't read it! But don't post about it because it makes other people feel bad about posting their feelings. Which they shouldn't because we are all here to support one another.0 -
I love this post. Yes, in a sense it is a social networking site but if you wanna go all extreme besides the blogs then do so just don't have those people as friends. I do not have a facebook and am very sad that the site resembles it so much. I just like to log my foods, reply to posters and look at diaries.0

You guys all seem to be missing the point. And that is that NO ONE EVER sends me email telling me I look YUMMY. WTH? Get to emailing people. I need this.
;D Looooove MFP for the social stuuuuuuuff!
I would, but the word "Yummy" would just make me more hungrier than I am.

This is called "Chit-chat, fun, and games". The title doesn't say you can only chit-chat about weight loss issues.0

Lets be fair here... Every one who is "offended" by the post and being really rude to someone who is just speaking their mind, you could just IGNORE it. Seems people need a little work in not being hypocrites...0
