Reply from Liz, Age 18 - 03/18/03 - IP#: 144.136.144.xxx I'm not angry with what you posted, I think there is some truth in what you say. It baffles me when I or someone else I know loses weight and everyone goes "how????". Thats as stupid as someone getting a haircut and everyone saying "how did you do it???" obviously with scissors etc. The majority of people know that to lose weight its the whole eat right/exercise thing. However, it is our instinct to look for a quick fix and shortcuts along the way. Some people on this site really do have weird ideas about weight loss though, like they really believe if you eat peanut butter it eats 1/2 your days calories or some crap like that. If losing weight were as easy as eat right/exercise then no one would really be here. Its the fact that its mentally and emotionally draining etc. and I think thats why this site is good its really for support and to share ideas etc. But, as with most things in life, there is always those who abuse and fill posts with garbage, which is probably what im doing right now. But you raise a good point.
