ha ha did you hook up with lily this morning? she wrote a similar post. I will write what i said there here. If you are contemplating wheater or not it will be appropiate to post something.. DONT! If you really have to get it out put it in your journal!

Personally, I don't see what all the drama is about. *rolls eyes*

I don't think you were out of line, but nor do I think a lot of other people were out of line. I think the one thing that is out of line is people asking for weight loss tips here, or posting numbers. That's about it.

Love ya, Megan!!!!

i feel that we all have right to what we feel and say because we all have different problems and and we all got are anorexia different ways
we will all survivor different to

For many myself included the reson we are on this site is because we have an eating disorder, which involves food! whether it be not eating enough or eating to much its the one thing we all have in common on this board.
I understand that things can be triggering for people, i have a problem i suppose with numbers i wish my scales read different to what they do, i analize every bit of food that i buy for fat and calorie content, lots of things can trigger people i'd never purged till i came on this site! But i think its sad not to be able to mention numbers ffs! we should be pulling together helping each other i have met some wonderfull people on here, and it upsets me when people are made to feel even worse than they do because they mention weight! I know the knives are going to come out now i've said this and do you know what i dont care go on go for it! my backs broad, christ knows i've put up with far worse than the bitchy comments that i may get on here.

Girl, there will be no knives!! You explained your point in a very calm polite way and thats what I asked for!! Just because you disagree doesn't make you bad!! You gave me honesty and I appreciate that!! Thank for your reponses everybody!!

This is a very sensitive group (and that's not a put down) and everyone is triggered by something unfortunately I do my best to stick the rules of the forum which are very clear in the news and info section.

I'm not sure we need another thread like this one right now. IMO it's getting run into the ground a bit. And yes we are all different, and intentions are good. Let's give it a rest for a bit and all just try to get along and help each other cope.=)!

I do agree with the guidelines keeping this a safe and non-triggering environment. What frustrates me is the way in which some people impose censorship. We can police ourselves, and I don't think that people need to "cruise" the board looking for someone to cite. If people can't be compassionate and supportive to those who break the "rules" maybe they should get a job with the sherriffs office. I've seen people who actually post NOTHING except warnings. One person actually wrote in her post that she gained five pounds and was immediately jumped for mentioning numbers. Now that I think is flat out ridiculous. xo

I totally agree with you. Numbers belong into your own journal, not the discussion board. You can always ask people to read your journal if you need help. But the discussion board should be free of numbers, period.

Thanks for saying that Gab!

I think this energy should go toward DS for allowing the advertisement on this page to be "How to lose weight fast,10 rules for losing fat". That is more of a problem on here than our own personal numbers.

so true seb180

Great point you quacky little ducky! XO!

Seb, I actually talked to Doug about that, and what we need to do is (god forbid) click on them just to get the link, so that we can send it to DS to they can block the advertisement.

It's random ads put up by google.
