    The fact that everybody thinks their way is the "right" way and everybody else is doing it wrong.

    ^^ This. ^^

    If something works for you, great. If I'm doing the opposite and it's working for me, don't try to tell me I'm doing the wrong thing.

    well, it is possible that you're doing something wrong but that's neither here nor there. I would 100% tell someone they were doing something wrong if following a VLCD and exercising. Their metabolic rate would slow to a crawl, their muscle mass would decrease, and they'd likely NOT like the results very much. So, I can completely understand why sometimes people do tell people they are "wrong."

    People who THINK they have it all figured out and who are smug about it.......

    having to spend ten minutes trying to figure out how to say what you want to say without starting off any of the trolls out there screaming about self esteem, look at me, diet coke, and fad diets.....


    People who aren't smart enough to know that they don't know it all...........

    people who are on here for strength training that look down on those of us who are here for weight loss.....I often see comments that are so derisive I want to smack them..... ( and I KNOW that the majority of the muscle guys and gals on here are fantastic and I love all the support and encouragement you give us)

    I was going to say the same thing. I guess men can just say it, not women???:smile::smile: (This was in reference to using the F--- word!)

    Agreed. I often wonder if "ladies" and "gentlemen" even exist any more. Referencing using the "f" word. I don't think either sex should use it, just for the record.

    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

    Agreed! I have asked for opinions before.. never got one response! Then noticed a thread that no related to fitness or someone just being an idiot and get 100 responses!

    We're allowed to add to our food diaries while at work... however, it erks me (mind you it doesn't piss me off) when I'm browsing forums and BAM 'naked' pictures everywhere RIGHT WHEN THE BOSS IS PASSING BY. :embarassed:

    It takes her a second, but then she realizes the site I'm on. :) Good thing she is a MFPer too!

    Well, I'm not emotionally invested enough in MFP to get angry. The functions of the site, like food tracking, are my main interest, and i do that my way and I'm fine with that.

    These message boards, sometimes I disagree, and sometimes there are rude people, but the beauty in a message board is being able to click to the next post if a post seems rude or hurtful.

    I think my biggest concern though is for people who want to crash diet, or go on even a reasonable calorie intake, but eat unhealthy foods. I've found that even putting in my two cents makes no difference, so, I don't let it really bother me a lot. And I don't judge them harshly. Goodness knows I'm not perfect in my own approach.

    People who ask for permission to eat something. "Can I have a piece of pizza?!" Or a mixed drink, or a cookie, or anything. Of course you can. You just might need to make other adjustments to your daily food intake to make it fit, but there's absolutely no reason to completely cut anything out of your life, unless there's some kind of allergy or other medical issue. Stop being so paralyzed with fear. 400 calories is not enough of anything to make you gain weight.

    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:




    Awesome attitude! My feelings exactly!

    I get annoyed when big, fat guys use shirtless pictures of themselves for their profile pictures....It's not motivation, put a shirt on.

    Disclaimer: I can say this because I am/was as big as anyone and I always had the common courtesy to remain fully clothed. :bigsmile:

    LOL!

    Nothing pisses me off as such but every time I see someone log something as exercise BLATANTLY just because they want to eat more or already have eaten more that day makes me cringe - you are only cheating yourselves people!

    This does not piss me off but it makes me sad... diet elitism. Ie. I know better than you because I did it my way and it had to work for you so you are wrong mentality. Drives me nuts. lol.

    People who aren't supportive. Even people who are "right" but just keep reminding people of it. Give your constructive advice or opinion (helpful to differentiate the two if possible) and don't let the little stuff bother you.

    Let people know up front if you are trying to be humorous (no, some people won't get it and/or appreciate it).

    I think MFP is great and chuckle at some of the debates/wars that start over trivial things and misunderstandings. I don't have the time or inclination to indulge in these :tongue:

    Anyway, MFP is great because most people here are helpful and thoughtful. Thanks to all my MFP friends!!!!

    Cheers,
    Matt

    Maybe it's already been said, but I can't stand people who are thin and fit who join the site and then talk about how much weight they have to lose. Then you see their ticker and it's 5 lbs. Yes, it's good to have goals. Please, let's be realistic about your body-dismorphic disorder and/or your need to feel better about yourself. Do you find you surround yourself with ugly friends too?

    I can't stand people who brag about all the junk food they are eating. "OMGGG I simpley HATE to eat at this Chinese buffet." "McDonald's Bistro sandwich is tasty." "I went over my calories - again! Why do I do this to myself?" "Why haven't I lost any weight?" I know it's their eating disorder, not mine, but I still don't want them on my friends list. It just makes me wat Chinese buffet.

    People who log-cheat. I know I can't possibly know what they are eating, but these people are pretty obvious. Yes, you can eat an egg without frying it in pam/whatever, and some people do eat dry toast. But these people will only ever log the main foods they eat, and none of the condiments or anything else that went into making it tasty. It all counts! Especially if they are hovering around their max calories, then wonder why they aren't losing. Maybe start logging the hundreds of calories that go into ketchup and butter/oil, and you will find things are more accurate. I also unfriend these people.

    1200 calorie eaters. I have some MFP friends that honestly eat 1200 calories. They are petite and have met their weight loss goals. I'm talking about the people who are uninformed and are starving themselves. I don't ever want to say anything, because they will either learn or not. But I have to say that these people don't so much make me pissed off as they make me a little sad. Also, a little vouyeristic as I browse their diaries and wonder how they have eny energy to get out of bed in the morning.

    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.

    Some people who have photo's of up themselves thin as their avatars are either from back when they were and using it as motivation, or they are working on getting fit, some people who are thin do really see themselves as fat. I know myself I was 250lbs and when I was that big I didn't think I was fat till I stepped on the scale, I didn't see it in the mirror, now that I'm 138lbs I look in the mirror most the time and still see that 250lb girl. My mind just hasn't caught up to my weight loss, doesn't mean I have an eating disorder.

    I guess what pisses me off sometimes is that when people lose so much weight, and are at their goal, they act like gods towards those who aren't at their goal yet... Really annoys me. x.x
