FatFreeFrolicking you seem to be looking for some sort of cat fight. You really come off as quite a bully whether you mean to or not. What works for some, may not work for others. I eat healthy and have no problems maintaining my weight. Judging by your 3424 posts you probably have a little more time on your hands then some of us do and if Slim Fast works for some of us and not for you, then why not just bow out of this thread as not in line with your beliefs and move on instead rounding up what appear to be your followers and ganging up on this gal because she chooses a route different then yours?

HA! This is hysterical.

@1bellringer1‌ Judging by your 35 posts, you must be new and unaware of the rules here on MFP. I suggest reading through them. Because unlike my posts here in this thread, yours is actually against the rules.

A VLCD (I'll spell it out for you in case you don't know what it stands for… very low calorie diet) is against the rules of MFP.

Eating 900 calories/day is unhealthy. Period. Telling someone that does not make me a bully. I am simply educating the OP on a healthy approach to weight loss, opposed to a VLCD fad that is unsustainable for long-term success. Assuming OP wants long-term success, she should be happy that people are providing her with information that is only going to HELP her.

As far as your comment about me having more time on my hands than some of us….
I'm a full-time student with one major and TWO minors (basically the equivalent of 2 majors)

I am vice president of the Public Health Society at my university

I volunteer at a number of organizations

I work two jobs

That list doesn't include the time I spend working out or my social life. So no, I don't have a little more time on my hands than you or anyone else. I just have better time management.

Next time you try to attack me, I suggest you actually know something about my life. Thanks

it's against the rules to advertise a vlcd on the forum. the op did not do that. a bunch of people snooped in her food diary which is really none of their business. o.p., i suggest you make your food diary viewable to friends only or private to only you.

@Aviva92‌ No, she isn't advertising a VLCD. But I believe it is against the rules to discuss a VLCD, period. When you post something on the internet, it becomes the whole world's business. Her diary is open to the public for all to see. Those of us who have been here a while, know to check people's diaries because most of the time, you find they are eating a significantly lower amount of calories than they should be. Those of us who care, tell these people what they are doing is very unhealthy and dangerous. There's nothing wrong with that.

There are individuals here who are recovering from eating disorders. They see posts like this and can also see her diary. It can be triggering for them.

oh, please. nothing wrong with telling her that what she is doing is unhealthy, but i highly doubt you are reporting her for this reason. just mind your own business. "bully" seems like an appropriate term here. if you truly think that she's going to hurt some person who is recovering from an eating disorder, why not tell her to make her diary private? why resort to reporting her? the ONLY reason to report her seem less than stellar to me.

she is discussing slim fast. she is not discussing a vlcd.

I drank those about a gazillion years ago in nursing school. Great to sip on in between my breakfast at 0530 and lunch at 1400. I have never used them for dieting. My grandmother did those about 2 gazillion years ago...I think she had the chocolate royale? Anyways, she lost a bunch then transitioned to weight watchers frozen meals and did better with that (she could have regular meals with the family and a dessert treat everyday).

Good luck!

I'm calling her out on not minding her own business. That's different. How's about I do what i want?

comment? sure. report her post for not breaking the forum rules at all? no.

@Aviva92‌ Do you even know what the word 'bully' means?

Bully: Verb
To frighten, hurt, or threaten (a smaller or weaker person) : to act like a bully toward (someone)

I never did frightened, hurt, or threatened her. You tell me to mind my own business but here you are, butting in. When someone is eating 900 calories a day, it becomes my business to tell her what she is doing is wrong (especially when her diary is visible to the public).

In case you are confused, I'm not the one who reported or even mentioned reporting her.

So oh, please yourself.

YOU said it's against the rules of the forum, thus insinuating that she should be reported for it. Someone else actually said that they reported her. Yes, you are trying to intimidate her by telling her she is breaking the forum rules, thus bullying. The other post by someone else encouraging people to report her post was certainly threatening and you just piled it on, so ya, it qualifies.

O.P. you really need to make your diary private so people quit snooping.

Judging by your 3424 posts you probably have a little more time on your hands then some of us do and if Slim Fast works for some of us and not for you, then why not just bow out of this thread as not in line with your beliefs and move on instead rounding up what appear to be your followers and ganging up on this gal because she chooses a route different then yours?

900 cals a day is considered VLCD, unhealthy, and against MFP guidelines. I'll report this thread and hope everyone else does the same.

MFP is for healthy and sustainable weight loss and management, I don't understand why so many end up here on this calorie counting site with their fad diets, shakes and pills.

Aviva~ see above. Reading comprehension.

HA! This is hysterical.

@1bellringer1‌ Judging by your 35 posts, you must be new and unaware of the rules here on MFP. I suggest reading through them. Because unlike my posts here in this thread, yours is actually against the rules.

A VLCD (I'll spell it out for you in case you don't know what it stands for… very low calorie diet) is against the rules of MFP.

Eating 900 calories/day is unhealthy. Period. Telling someone that does not make me a bully. I am simply educating the OP on a healthy approach to weight loss, opposed to a VLCD fad that is unsustainable for long-term success. Assuming OP wants long-term success, she should be happy that people are providing her with information that is only going to HELP her.

As far as your comment about me having more time on my hands than some of us….
I'm a full-time student with one major and TWO minors (basically the equivalent of 2 majors)

I am vice president of the Public Health Society at my university

I volunteer at a number of organizations

I work two jobs

That list doesn't include the time I spend working out or my social life. So no, I don't have a little more time on my hands than you or anyone else. I just have better time management.

Next time you try to attack me, I suggest you actually know something about my life. Thanks

it's against the rules to advertise a vlcd on the forum. the op did not do that. a bunch of people snooped in her food diary which is really none of their business. o.p., i suggest you make your food diary viewable to friends only or private to only you.

@Aviva92‌ No, she isn't advertising a VLCD. But I believe it is against the rules to discuss a VLCD, period. When you post something on the internet, it becomes the whole world's business. Her diary is open to the public for all to see. Those of us who have been here a while, know to check people's diaries because most of the time, you find they are eating a significantly lower amount of calories than they should be. Those of us who care, tell these people what they are doing is very unhealthy and dangerous. There's nothing wrong with that.

There are individuals here who are recovering from eating disorders. They see posts like this and can also see her diary. It can be triggering for them.

oh, please. nothing wrong with telling her that what she is doing is unhealthy, but i highly doubt you are reporting her for this reason. just mind your own business. "bully" seems like an appropriate term here. if you truly think that she's going to hurt some person who is recovering from an eating disorder, why not tell her to make her diary private? why resort to reporting her? the ONLY reason to report her seem less than stellar to me.

@Aviva92‌ Do you even know what the word 'bully' means?

Bully: Verb
To frighten, hurt, or threaten (a smaller or weaker person) : to act like a bully toward (someone)

I never did frightened, hurt, or threatened her. You tell me to mind my own business but here you are, butting in. When someone is eating 900 calories a day, it becomes my business to tell her what she is doing is wrong (especially when her diary is visible to the public).

In case you are confused, I'm not the one who reported or even mentioned reporting her so I'm not quite sure why you are discussing that with me.

So oh, please yourself.

YOU said it's against the rules of the forum, thus insinuating that she should be reported for it. Someone else actually said that they reported her. Yes, you are trying to intimidate her by telling her she is breaking the forum rules, thus bullying. The other post by someone else encouraging people to report her post was certainly threatening and you just piled it on, so ya, it qualifies.

So telling someone that something is against the rules is equivalent to bullying? LOL, okay, got it.

How about you mind your own business, she has just as much right to comment as you do.

I'm calling her out on not minding her own business. That's different. How's about I do what i want?

comment? sure. report her post for not breaking the forum rules at all? no.

Once again, when someone posts something on a public forum, it becomes everyone's business.

You are doing the same exact thing that I am. You are no different.

i'm calling you out on it. that's not the same thing.

And WE are calling YOU out on telling others to mind their own business when you aren't minding your own!

I'm not sure why you are having such a difficult time comprehending that.

This got strange. I can't believe I've ever threatened anyone, and I didn't mean to frighten anyone either. Posts advocating undereating is in my opinion so unhealthy that they should be removed as soon as possible, in line with MFP's policy, and I wonder why this has been allowed to stay.

She is looking for other friends who follow the SF diet. They may see that she is eating 900 calories/day and say to themselves, "She's doing it so I should too!" That's usually how it goes…

So in a way, yes, she is.

very round about way and not what she posted in this thread. the only reason people would see that is if they snoop. so, do you report everyone on your friends list to the mods if you notice they have 900 calories in their diary?

I've seen people on my friends list with low calorie diets. I'm an adult. I can decide for myself what to do and they don't influence me at all. At some point, we need to take responsibility for our own lives.

I agree that people need to take responsibility for their own lives…with that being said, when someone on a VLCD posts on an open internet forum for ALL to respond to, has their diet open, they have opened the door to comments and suggestions.

FatFreeFrolicking was actually talking to a completely different user in the thread than the OP, yet you keep saying she's telling the OP she's against the rules.

900 calories is NOT okay, it's NOT healthy, and by posting this, and as FatFreeFrolicking said, she's looking for other people, and they may see she's on 900 calories and believe they should be too. That is not healthy. In no one's world is that healthy. So she should call the OP out on the possible harm she is doing to her own body. The only time VLCD's should be acceptable are under a doctor's care. I highly doubt that the OP is under a doctors care or even needs a VLCD to lose weight.

This is an open forum for all opinions. You seem to want to go on and on about how she should mind her own business…you should too then. If that's how you feel, because honestly at this point you are derailing the thread, which is against MFP's rules.

OP, I find this very sad. You're telling us that you have no time to become a healthier person. You want to be thin, but you don't want to learn how to eat correctly.

I have nothing against Slim Fast, have used it myself a time or two. I think it's fine for an occasional meal replacement but it's not fine to live off of. And 900 calories is very unhealthy. Take the time to learn how to eat healthy and the rest will come. You didn't gain the weight in a few weeks and you won't lose it in a few weeks.

Most people here snoop through others' diaries.

That's great that YOU aren't affected when you see people eating VLCDs. Like I said before, there are individuals here who are recovering from EDs. Eating disorders are a very complex mental illness. These individuals are influenced by behavior like this and cannot control themselves due to the mental component of EDs.

Sometimes you have to take a step back and think about how your choices affect others.

very round about way and not what she posted in this thread. the only reason people would see that is if they snoop. so, do you report everyone on your friends list to the mods if you notice they have 900 calories in their diary?

I've seen people on my friends list with low calorie diets. I'm an adult. I can decide for myself what to do and they don't influence me at all. At some point, we need to take responsibility for our own lives.

I agree that people need to take responsibility for their own lives…with that being said, when someone on a VLCD posts on an open internet forum for ALL to respond to, has their diet open, they have opened the door to comments and suggestions.

FatFreeFrolicking was actually talking to a completely different user in the thread than the OP, yet you keep saying she's telling the OP she's against the rules.

900 calories is NOT okay, it's NOT healthy, and by posting this, and as FatFreeFrolicking said, she's looking for other people, and they may see she's on 900 calories and believe they should be too. That is not healthy. In no one's world is that healthy. So she should call the OP out on the possible harm she is doing to her own body. The only time VLCD's should be acceptable are under a doctor's care. I highly doubt that the OP is under a doctors care or even needs a VLCD to lose weight.

This is an open forum for all opinions. You seem to want to go on and on about how she should mind her own business…you should too then. If that's how you feel, because honestly at this point you are derailing the thread, which is against MFP's rules.

LOL i'm derailing the thread????? in what way? the thread turned to attacking the op and I'm derailing it from THAT by defending the o.p.? okay then. that makes zero sense. Seems like that was already derailing it. The O.P. did not ask people to attack her diet.

FFF said that the o.p. was breaking the forum rules. what does it matter which post she was responding to? I say people need to not report posts that don't break forum rules as far as "minding your own business". Telling her that her diet might not be healthy is fine to me. Reporting her is not.

Can do. Take the slim fast and throw it in the trash, and eat THREE sensible meals per day. Or two if you aren't a breakfast person.
