Queen,
I believe I was on topic, and wishing is different than whining. I said
"I would rather hear about new ideas, recipes, new products, what works
and what doesn't." (or is this to broad of a topic for you?)

And as for you JC Der Koenig, Are you 11 or 12 ? You never have anything

There are a bunch of infantile egomaniacs in here with nothing better to do
than be smartasses hiding behind fake names and computer screens. There are
also a lot of good, constructively criticising people here too. You will
learn who's posts to read an who's to pass over. I usually end up reading
about 20-30 posts per day out of the 100+ that show up on my reader. as far
as the "personal sewage", many of us are dealing with emotional issues that
affect our weight. we support each other thru that. As someone dealing with
[censored] that I hope you never have to, I occasionally spew some [censored] so you
will have to decide if any of it is relevant to you and skip accordingly.

It's like a bank, Zippy. You get out a bit more than you put in. Thus
far you've put in some [censored] whimpering. Looks like that's pretty
much what you got back. With interest.

If you have something to contribute that improves the tenor of the
place, let me step aside to help you post it. Otherwise, save your
scolding and Pecksniffian prattle for people you can control.

Because there are lots of people who whine, whimper and grouse. Like you.

So far it looks like this: you complain right up front about the
population here and try to mold it to suit you. Rather than post the
kinds of things you'd like to see, you find fault with everyone and
try to chide them into line. Have you *ever* seen that kind of
silliness work?

Didn't think so...

then why didn't you post a request for some new ideas, recipes or tips?
or toddle off to google and check the archives? there's plenty there.
in complaining about the signal to noise ratio, you add to the noise.
you started a whole new thread to do it.

and don't you know that if you go around telling your wishes out loud to
people they won't come true?

next time, shake your head and move on. take what you can use from the
group and ignore the rest. use a killfile. use your head.

JC Der Koenig said:

lol Fat boy, your a card JC.

I like to lo-carb because "I just feel better". I strayed away temporary
because I moved to Las Vegas and they have great Buffets. I've done the
lo-carb thing for years, even before it came into style. You don't need
to be fat to lo-carb, like they say it's a "way of life". I've lost the
weight I needed to lose long ago, I'm hardly fat.Boy!
You need to grow up a bit. I'm really starting to think you are an adult
(with major life issues). Try exercising more to help relief stress or
seek a support group, cut out the caffine anyway. No one should feel
the only way to get attention is by belittling or battling others. I
could continue to exchange squibs with you, but that would be pointless.
Instead, I'll just filter you out. I'll look forward to not hearing
you. lol

I dunno about your brand of newsreader, but I can (and did) set mine to
display the newsgroup(s) that each message is posted to as I read it.
It's good info to have. I think you'll find that things posted only to
a.s.d.l-c are typically pretty good. The nasty ones all seem to be
cross-posted to the following array:

soc.support.fat-acceptance, alt.support.diet, alt.support.diet.low-carb,
alt.support.diet.weightwatchers, misc.fitness.weights

Bet you 1,000 free, non-countable carbs in the pizza of your choice that
there are some nasty flamewars going on in one or more of those other
groups.
