    Re: cant we all just get along

    To ALL of you, especially the OP starting this thread,











    Whether we understand or not from our current perspective what someone attempts to tell us in a post reply, it's the thought that counts. Assume that the person means well, as after all, why would a person who doesn't even bother to be here?

              Re: cant we all just get along

              I wanted to add that I think it is great that this board is by the book and that they stand by it. Way less confusing than saying...well follow the book here and here and here but don't worry about here because I didn't and it worked for me. If a newbie asks a question here I think that they have to be prepared to hear what they don't want too..but they will know that it is by the book. And if they don't like the advice...no one is making them follow it. I have seen too many posts posted by people trying to justify eating off the list and end up quitting or struggling even harder than they were before. If you join an Atkins by the book board then expect Atkins by the book answers. Tough Love is given here...but it is still done in LOVE and I, for one, am thankful for all the people who take and took the time to answer all my questions. No one is getting paid for it and there are some very loyal people here!!

              I also would like to put forth a motion that all other redundant threads from henceforth get hijacked with a Panda joke...in honor of my late uncle...who was a Panda...who died while eating carbs one day a week (though he swore he was still doing Atkins the other 6 so really he was following Atkins) and complaining about other people's actions instead spending time posting helpful..BY THE BOOK... advice for the newbies.

              All in favor can rep me...I mean say "AYE!"

                  Make sure it is wanted - no. Not if you mean 'just tell em what they want to hear'. When a person asks for advice, they should FULLY expect to receive it from both ends. Some might tell them what they want to hear, and many probably will NOT tell them what they want to hear if it's not within the WOE.
