So let me get this straight, your boyfriend wants you to lose weight so be offered you a car if you did? I'm not sure which is worse, him offering you a car to lose weight or you needing someone to offer you a car to lose weight.duffylynnreb wrote: »janejellyroll wrote: »ceoverturf wrote: »duffylynnreb wrote: »peachyfuzzle wrote: »People don't generally make rude comments here.

In real life, eff 'em. Anyone who would make a rude comment isn't worth spending the brain power on to worry about it.
Really? You couldn't have been more ruder to me.
Were you promoting some pseudo-science woo babble?
I think she might be talking about the "I need to lose 30 pounds in a month so my boyfriend will buy me a car" thread. That's the OP from that thread.
it's actually two and a half months and 24 pounds and I talked to a trainer yesterday and it is doable(just not fun at all![:\](https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/resources/emoji/confused.png ":\")
)
No, I believe she asked her boyfriend to do it so that she would have motivation.
Did anyone point out the irony that she asked him to do that so she could be motivated to lose weight so and afterwards she would get a car and no longer have to walk anywhere?
Gotta love irony.0 -
There are always going to be rude people and jerks. But you do need to ask yourself whether or not what they say is valid and you are simply making excuses for yourself.0

I know! Not having a car can be a great weight loss tool.0 -

That's probably wants to be your trainer.
So if your boyfriend decides he doesn't want go through with the bet anymore will you still lose the Wrighteven if there is no car?
at this point I would be lucky if I lost 15 pounds so I'm not expecting to get the car so yeah I'm doing this for me now0 -

As a matter of fact go window shop, take a test drive, select color/make/model and remove those words "not sure I can do this". Start your journey right away.
And when you reach your goal let your BF buy that car.
Though I think just to be sure you get that car negotiate the time frame with him. 2 months is way too aggressive.

Is being overweight not enough motivation? Let's say you won the bet and got the car, what's the motivation to continue or keep the weight off? What will it take, a new house?
I think, I hope wanting to maintain a nice body will be motivation to keep it off0 -

I will say that it's a hell of lot easier to maintain once you are there, rather than starting over again.0 -
They aren't banned, just in Naughty Jail for having too many warning flags (if I understand correctly, MFP's not big on explaining). Banned users have the Keep Calm User Is Banned avatar. It came with the forum update months ago (iirc).branflakes1980 wrote: »Is it rude to point out that I think it's pretty awesome that I woke up this morning and 2 people are behind bars here an I think it's awesome ?
Genuinely curious, what is up with the bars? I saw that on those 2 people's pictures and I really don't understand. Anyone? I gather it means banned or something but yet they still are able to post? Also, quite a few peoples pics say keep calm user banned carry on. When did all this happen and how did I miss the explanation of it all? LOL!

So the red peeps are banned, got it! But the peeps in jail are just in jail and can still post? How long does jail last? Questions, questions too many questions. LOL!
Essentially yes.
I'd recommend PMing a moderator with the questions tho, or check out the help threads. We're not really supposed to openly discuss these things.0 -
