    Shame that there's so much negativity on here, I didn't realise.

    This statement is kind of proving everyones point. I don't see any negativity, just people stating their opinion but you are now offended by "negativity"

    Well said here.

    Haha! Maybe a "Guess my weight based on my open diary" thread would be less offensive!

    Well, go on. Guess! Haha!

    No, but I did cheat. I looked at your profile pictures. Calorie intake doesn't really say anything about weight. A 225 pound woman could have a goal of 1200 calories or 2600 calories depending on her goal, activity level, and exercise burns.

    ""Good job on walking everyday! That's 'X' calories lost. That's the same amount as that chocolate bar on Wednesday ;)"
    Bahahahaha. If anyone ever said that to me they would get dick punched.

    The avatar is of an Olympic athlete from Ethiopia. Political statement. :wink: But I think there are other pics in that folder too.

    Great sleuthing!

    @BessSometimesJess Why not create a group like this except that people only offer each other positive feedback? People might benefit from hearing about the good things about what they're doing. I'm not talking about blowing smoke, but I think this stuff can get overwhelming and leave people feeling like they're not doing anything right. It might be helpful to have people point out the positives.

    This could work. Less chance for offense and less likely to derail someone. I mentioned upthread the snacking up until bedtime thing. I tried giving it up. I can't sleep on an empty stomach. Other people can't sleep on a full one. If someone "corrected" me they might do more harm than good.
