    Aww how cute. My post got flagged as abuse because it wasn't al warm and fuzzy. Smh. If that is "rude" to you, good luck in the real world.

    I was thinking the two sentences, but, close enough.

    Oddly enough, most of the memes were misquotes.

    I did not flag any posts, for the record!

    Okay, see you back here in a few weeks when you gain in all back.

    Sorry, but no reason to be rude...

    Truth knows not of politeness nor rudeness. Your interpretation is one of rudeness because you don't like what it says and means.

    Truth is not rude. Truth simply ... is.

    It was clearly snarky, obviously, since someone reported it and it wasn't me. An opinion is not necessarily truth.

    It was rude. It was also correct- sorry OP. Fad diets do not lead anywhere good.

    It always amazes me on MFP how many people claim they are "too full to eat more" on a VLCD. How did you get overweight in the first place if you are "full" on 500 calories a day?

    No. 99% of the flags do not violate the terms of service.

    "Clearly snarky" is in your perception only.

    Right.

    We got overweight eating a lot of food, and eating a fad diet, or being on a VLCD, is not a lot of food, because both are designed to make you lose weight quickly.

    People flag things they don't like. It doesn't mean those things violate the rules. Sergeant Sausage is blunt, but he speaks the truth.

    You are NOT doing yourself any favors resorting to fads to handle issues with your weight. It's not a healthy way to view food, or weight, or of solving a problem.

    Just to be clear. The military diet isnt 500 cals a day is it? I thought it was quite a bit higher than that. Also OP is actually already a healthy weight so jabs as to how did u get overweight in the first place dont apply. I honestly applaud u for STILL replying despite all the critism. I may not support this kind of diet but good on ya for being fairly level headed in ur decisions

    Guys, I did not flag it, someone else did.

    I think it was a mix if the grapefruit and peanut butter that made me feel so full. I don't usually eat grapefruit.

    I usually feel hungry shortly after breakfast and tend to over eat later in the day because of it.

    I really need structure or else I cheat! I figure I will give it a try and if I can't stand it oh well. I don't have that much weight to lose only about 15-20 pounds, so I will only probably do it a Couple times and eat a bit healthier.

    Thanks for the responses so far!

    give yourself structure!! plan your meals and snacks and grocery store trips. my diary is almost completely filled out for the rest of the week!!
