Weight Loss Forum / General Topics / August 2004Signing off...
Thank you for your support while I lost the weight. Almost all of you were very encouraging, and I had a lot of fun corresponding with you. What is not fun is having to explain myself to those few who feel a need to question my health choices and intimate dire consequences for not following their particular advice. It is getting harder and harder to weed out the know-it-alls, especially those who make the effort to avoid being weeded. The solution for me is to leave this group. You can play amongst yourselves with any replies to this message, I'll not be checking back. - Dewolla .. I for one am very sorry to see Dewolla leave the group. She's been a very successful member and I've learned a lot from her and her journey to better health through diet and exercise. Beverly > Thank you for your support while I lost the weight.

That's the exact kind of nastiness that most people would like to avoid. It wasn't necessary. ~Kat "The early bird gets the worm, the second mouse gets the cheese." > >I am sorry to see her leave, as well, even though she is very likely > >to come back. > > That's the exact kind of nastiness that most people would like to avoid.

Unfortunately, I'm not very hopeful that it will. :-/  Signaturejmk in NC > Thank you for your support while I lost the weight.

That is my biggest problem with *any* support usenet group. There are more than a few that will tell you exactly who you are doomed to failure unless you stop what you are doing, ignore everyone else who is telling you the exact same thing, and follow their advice and their advice alone. >It is getting harder and harder to weed out the know-it-alls, especially >those who make the effort to avoid being weeded.

Remember, you are a loser, and I dont mean a loser of weight. You are a big fat ugly slob with a lousy personality, and no one wanted you here anyhow. We are all glad to see you go.

Ah yes, another courageous individual using tough words with complete anonymity. Parents - this is why you need to keep your 10 year olds away from the computer when you aren't around.

Kids are largely above that kind of behavior; it's the adults who you need to watch out for. My 9 1/2 year old would never stoop so low. beeswing > x-no-archive: yes > [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > > beeswing Funny. I was under the impression the '10 year old warning' was so that 10 year olds wouldn't become the target of crazy tr*llers.... not necessarily that a 10 yo wrote that nasty post. Teri > > x-no-archive: yes > > [quoted text clipped - 15 lines] > that a 10 yo wrote that nasty post. > Teri I kinda read it and took it the same way Beeswing did. But I also know that my 10 yr old would also never do anything like this either. And I would be more concerned about him being a target.... I would think that the idiots out there are really either late teens, and adults. I know a few adults in RL that would easily have the capability of being a usenet idiot. > > > x-no-archive: yes > > > [quoted text clipped - 25 lines] > adults.

Teri : The cr*p really does have a way of coinciding with school vacations, doesn't : it!
