    This thread is making me crack up. If we had it our way, there'd be nothing left in the boards except the chit chat threads :D

    Nah, those are on my list too.

    "blah blah blah the person above you"

    Can we ban threads that have 'the person above you' in them?

    Wow.

    Just wow.

    Uhhhhhh...

    Ummmmmm...

    ^^^^^ No.

    Just no.



    "Clean" and "moderation" are both words that I wouldn't miss if they never popped up again. Neither one means anything, but they're always repeated. I don't expect they're going away any time soon, though. :)

    Some people report having a physical reaction to eliminating table sugar and other high carb, low fiber foods. Are you saying they are mistaken - or lying - or just stupid? If you've never experienced a negative reaction to eating sugar, count yourself fortunate. Your body is working optimally, no doubt. But is it reasonable to deny that the insulin-ghrelin-leptin-dopamine pathways can be compromised in some individuals?

    So if recomp is ban. What do you call lose fat and keep as much muscle as possible since you can do that with no scale change?
    Getting in shape?

    It's just an annoying-sound word, not sure why. When someone says "I'll start a recomp..", I hear, "I should be lifting weights now, but i prefer cardio".

    Yeah, "bulky" is bad. Stop that.

    Other ones...

    "Fitspiration" - you know, those posters that look like Nike ads. Not all of them, just the extreme ones, like "You haven't exercised hard enough until you need physical therapy".

    "Anyone have any secrets for ________" - usually the answer is a calorie deficit, or some similar non-secret.

    "Anyone heard of (new website or product)?" - usually thinly veiled spam by someone with 0 posts.

    "Lean muscle" - all muscle is lean, by definition. Just say "muscle". Or "lean and muscular".

    Thanks for playing. B)

    "Bae," "Basic," "TBT," "Yolo," "On fleek." Most of the slang these days could be banned in 2015 and I would be pleased.

    Oh, and "clean eating" just because.

    It's like a human butcher shop in here with all the random body parts on display.

    I might post a pic of my big toe. I'm really proud of it. I bet it'd really lend my posts some credibility. If I take the pic in a dirty bathroom then people will know it's not some toe model's pic I snagged off the internet, or doctored in photoshop. :p

    I'm really starting to hate the word 'deficit' and the phrase 'eat at a deficit and you'll lose" - so I'd like to add those to the banned list ;)

    Banning journey seems silly and cynical, and cynical isn't what this place needs.

    Yeah, that seems like a legitimate one.

    How so? It's a ridiculous term for "losing weight."

    i already removed that garbage the very instant they gave us the option.

    so nice not having an entire section dedicated to compliment fishing!

    Given that the forums are for everyone, I'd say let's not ban any phrases.

    This thread may (or may not for that matter) been initiated in jest...but I am seeing a lot of smugness and arrogance, in that people feel there is only one way to lose and maintain weight loss, and any deviation is not to be tolerated.

    awwww so says the faceless profile picture person ...

    You're "faceless," also.

    Yes, and so am I. I'm not too concerned about losing any credibility on these boards, merely due to the fact that I decide not to show my abs.
