    This doesn't really piss me off, but it does baffle me.

    When a significantly overweight person complains about not being able to eat up to 1200 calories a day. Unless there's something medically wrong with you (like thyroid problems), you got that way by eating a helluva lot more.

    I agree with you, but I think that it's a problem with eating healthy stuff to equal 1200 cals. It's not hard to eat 2 meals a day and eat over 3,000 cals. Just go to your local fast food joint.

    People who go ballistic because a person chooses to eat or not eat a certain food. One example: I will not die or become a limp hunk of flab if I do not eat meat. There are other protein sources.

    I begin to wonder if people get kickbacks for endorsing certain foods. There are always alternatives. I don't like brown rice - if I want rice, I will eat some form of white rice and, guess what, I'll be OK. I love whole wheat bread. The taste of white bread seems akin to eating a piece of paper to me... but guess what, if others eat white bread, they'll be ....... [sing it with me now] .... OK.

    I agree, I really don't like brown rice much. If I'm going to eat rice it'll be wild rice or white. Y'know a lot of Asian people eat white rice and they're healthy: it can't be that bad for you.

    I did a VERY tongue-in-cheek blog about this subject once and people got really angry with me, so I'm keeping my mouth shut. Peace and love and all that crap, right?

    Nothing really.

    It's a good mix of things.

    I hate the ones that just march in, crawl up your leg, start biting the inside of your ***, and then you're like...'GET OUT OF MY *** YOU STUPID RAINBOW

    People who log "cleaning" or "doing hair" as exercise! BS! No, you did not burn 1800 calories get real. People are really cheating themselves. It's called BMR!

    I only clean my room once every maybe 6 months. When I clean it, it will take 6+ hours, also can work up a sweat whilst wearing my hrm. Plus I take out the BMR calories.

    Not to get catty...but if I spend the whole day sweating it out moving furniture scrubbing stuff and legitmately work up a sweat doing it? I'm logging it as exercise. Yard work too. It's called house work cause it's work.

    If I go out of my way to log every little thing that goes in my mouth I'm going out of my way to log every little thing that gets my *kitten* up off the couch.

    : )

    Freaking GRAMS in the food database! WTF! But I am a newbie, so I am sure I will find something else about MFP that is irritating, even if it ends up what irritates me the most is ME :D

    Well SORRY that not all people here are from your country.
    Just because this is an american site does not mean australian's are not allowed on it :flowerforyou:

    the attitude that some of the smaller people have toward the bigger people.

    when people ask a question like "what does MSG do to your body" and you give them an answer but they never acknowledge it but skip over you to the next person to talk about some BS that had nothing to do with your post. (waste of my time answering you when you obviously dont care)

    when I ask a serious question and only get two responses but other post get like 400.

    when people discourage the new people by making them feel like they are wrong for now showing up on MFP earlier.

    discrimination (of all types. Yea it exists on here I see it every day)

    closed minds.

    People who get on here and think that everyone got fat the exact same way. ( I have heard the "they just need to stop eating so much" theory one too many times. some people gain from not eating enough.)

    bad advice (when you give advice it needs to be based on what is good for the other person. what worked for you may not be appropriate)

    hate for people who want to do things their own way.

    did you do it with the standing on your head technique, or the old flip the monitor upside down trick?

    I used the "Just read it backwards cause it ain't hard" trick.

    I just tried it and i guess you're right. Damn, if you only knew how hard it was to type that earlier while doing a headstand. I lost my balance about halfway through and ended up breaking my grandmother's favorite china.

    It doesn't piss me off, but it confuses me when I have amazing days of food logging, no one comments, then I have a bad day where my meals were small/bad and I get "great job!" really people? Then I look at their logs and they eat terribly :(

    "Tablets can't make you gain weight. Only overeating can." oh right playing around with hormones in your body can't slow down your metabolism :grumble:

    Biggest load of bull****.

    The fact that I post a question and get very few responses but others will have 200 plus responses becuase they are mindlessly arguing and beating a dead horse in the midst of it all

    Yep I completely agree with this!!
  • Nothing but love over here =D

    Nothing...because:

    This is free.And I'm secure.

    There are plenty of people who's opinions conflict with mine. I don't get worked up over trying to change them. I just have some bacon, instead. :tongue:

    Love this! So true!! :D

    Girls and ladies using freely the F word and other cursed one. I really can't stand them.

    Why is it girls and ladies? If you don't like the F word, it should apply to men and woman. It really pisses me off with people who have double standards!!!

    People who are thin who are acting like their sooooo fat!!! They're either conceited or are suffering from a distorted body image syndrome!! Don't talk to me about fat unless you actually HAVE an elevated BMI.
