Rant about diet community!

[xnatalyax]

I just want to talk about how thankful I am to those supporting me on this journey. I know I don't talk about it all the time but this morning I really was overwhelmed with it. There's another live journal community i've been posting to specifically for people on South Beach. People hardly ever post on that site and i've come to realize the people

it's like that with alot of diet specific groups, unfortunately. i think you're doing a wonderful job- only you know what works for you, so keep at it!

I hate that....people need to realize that not everything works for every person. That is why we are a nation of obese people...my friend can eat taco bell everyday and it doesn't affect her. I on the other hand eat it once a month and gain ten pounds.

That's sad that a community designed for the purpose of support has turned into that. Fact of the matter is, there is not ONE way to diet... if there was, there wouldn't be so, so, SO many options to people seeking a diet plan that can fit their lifestyle. In my opinion, tailoring a "diet" into more of a "way of life" that is practical for you is WAY more effective than trying to stick to something that doesn't fit right, only to crash and burn later because it didn't suit your needs. Just keep up your good work and forget the negativity! :D

What you're doing is obviously working, so it's sad that that particular community isn't supportive enough. Part of being in a community is to stick together!

they say the best diets are the ones people have come up theirself. I have done SB a couple of time and lose weight all the times that i have done it andi have never gone by the book. If it works it works so what does it matter to anyone else right?
