Default Good-bye

Sorry, but I'm sick of know-it-all Americans telling me how I should or
shouldn't eat when they know nothing of me, or my lifestyle, or even how
British people normally eat.

I'll lose weight the way I did the first time, before Usenet was ever
invented, all by myself.

Good bye.

I didn't know there was such a thing as a British physiology that was
different from physiology anywhere else in the world.

Interesting observation. Seems to me like there are plenty of general
regional variations in physiology, worldwide. Whether any of them are
relevant to weight loss is another question, I guess.

Dear Annabell,
I'll miss you GREATLY So sorry to see you leave but I really can
understand! I have come & gone MANY times over and I lurk always! I jst
can't get too far away as I need this somewhat. I need to hang on to the
strength which comes from many here. Those who are going through the
terrible trials of weight problems are my help but some are not so I
just skip thier posts here.
I hope that you will not go too far away as I really like your posts a
LOT!!

((HUGS))

I'm sorry that you feel that way but if you are going to post your food
log, you need to expect for people to comment. In fact, you *invited*
people to comment. I'm sorry that you did not like the feedback that
you received but that was not the first time that someone pointed out
that you really need to eat more protein. Whilee weight loss in general
will help Robert with the lifts in figure skaing, I don't think that
losing muscle mass will help you any at all and that's really the
direction that you are headed with this WOE. Perhaps you would like to
consult with your figure skating coach or with a personal trainer?

Criticism is hard to take. Being open to the idea that people know
something you don't know is hard to get used to.

Joining a group with no interest whatsoever in taking what they have to
offer you is pointless.

I've been hard on you. I just can't quite find the empathy to feel bad
about it. You've been acting like a know-it-all since you got here and
have been unrelentingly closed to the suggestions of the people here.
You insulted the most helpful regulars (clearly you had not lurked) and
that left a bad taste in my mouth.

Good luck on your weight loss. When you're ready to make the changes
necessary to lose fat and keep it off then come here and lurk (that's
silently, i.e., LISTENING) and we'll tell you.
