For long term success being negative isn't healthy. You should be your own best friend...0

Without putting you in my mind, it's stuff like "Quit being lazy, you can run your *kitten* a few minutes longer." "Don't you want to look like _______? Then you better not go over your calories. Step away from the refrigerator."
I don't see that as a problem, that is more tough love than negative. I say if it works and it is as harmless as that, go for it.
I started weight loss in a self-punishing, frustrated mode, but that only lasted about 12 hours. Then, after eating a Lean Cuisine meal, I thought, "I can't eat that sh**!", and decided I had to come up with a better plan for someone so basically deserving as I am. Goodbye, "Get your lardass up that hill!"0 -
I don't think its harmful I call myself some awful things because if I'm nice to myself I eat like a pig as I think I some how deserve if when I don't0
