I sometimes think I might have this, but I don't think it is pervasive for me. I really hate winter! I just hate it. It's only redeeming value for me is the holiday season. When January rolls around and the ground is wet and the air is cold (live in the south) and everything is just dead around me... I just feel so…

The people who post clever gifs generally don't use wikipedia as their source for science.

It's not about her diet. It's about her logic for why it is working. It's perpetuation of misinformation.

This is the most egregious of OP's mistakes!! :mad:

Because wiki is a credible source??!?!?! :huh: :noway:

Aside from being completely inaccurate about how keto diets, insulin, and fat loss actually works... what happened to the other 3 steps?

Quote For Truth

I mean, I see your point. But let me ask you this question... Which of the two types of people you have described are more likely to abuse this online internet tool? Perhaps you just see more of one type than the other because of the format where you are finding it. You didn't really specify where you see this happening,…

I actually wasn't talking about you being condescending. And I completely understand. I have an unconventional relationship myself. I was just trying to understand how your two separate preferences (D/s and polyamory) came together since you used your D/s relationship to lend credibility to your point. Thanks for…

Okay... but I didn't ask her how this other random stranger's relationship works. And that last sentence seemed a bit condescending. I was once in a D/s relationship so I know how that works. I was simply asking the poster if she was the Dom, and if so I feel like her example relates more to the D/s nature of her…

I'm not saying anything about how her relationship works. I'm just trying to understand the dynamic. No need to white-knight, here.

So you're obviously the Dom, right? I mean, you bring women home and he can't touch. Not at all saying that's a bad thing, but it seems like this situation leans more to the control/power conversion than it does to polyamory.

Look... all relationships have boundaries. Open relationships have different boundaries than monogamous ones. That's all. That's all there is to it. If someone wants an open relationship, then they are looking for an unconventional relationship in which they establish their own boundaries instead of allowing society to do…

Yeah, you are. LOL! I sort of vaguely remember that. But I always thought she was supposed to be Phyllis Diller. Definitely doesn't look like Joan to me though. But I got the joke.

IKR!

I'm pretty sure that puppet is supposed to be emulating Phyllis Diller. :laugh:

I think she was bold and brave. She definitely shattered glass ceilings. I also think she would love all the heckler comments in this thread. :drinker: RIP Joan :flowerforyou:

I think what really needs to happen is that some controls need to be put in place to manage the cost of living. I have worked fast food. We all have. It was never a livable wage. It was never meant to be a livable wage. But the cost of living gets higher and higher and wages, in general (not just fast food), have not kept…

I work for the state. I don't make a livable wage!

Okay. Well then, they are just going about their daily lives nomming on delicious candy. And you must find a way to deal with it. Maliciousness is few and far between, but I have encountered it. But like I said, I really didn't think that was going on in your office.

For me, he will always be this guy!

Are you taking rest days? They are important.

It's the worst troll thread ever!

Well here's the thing. How commonplace is it for people to bring treats into the office? Honestly, I don't believe that there is one person in your office that is concerned enough with your weight loss to intentionally sabotage you. That's still that thinking that someone else is to blame for your lack of self-control. You…

Glad to see your toddler moment has passed. The thread probably won't stop though. Sorry. :flowerforyou:

I don't let the behaviors of others affect my choices so therefore, no, I won't be coming on here to rant because I can't have 40 calories in Snickers. I'd just eat it! Also, the ranter must realize that she has no control over the behavior of others. Only of herself. This isn't about giving someone a hard time. It's about…

A single bite-size Snicker is 40 calories. You'll burn that walking to your car. You could even intentionally forget something and go back to your office to get it, just to make certain you burned that whole whopping 40 calories.

How certain are you that she doesn't know? *searches Youtube for "silly Asian man dancing"*

I don't see a lot of whole foods in your diary. You may be deficient in potassium which will cause water retentiona, and therefore, mask weight loss.

But do you see the point that I made? Life experience can only serve to make a likable person all the more likable (or unlikable depending on circumstances).
