You're one of the good one's Cindy and I'll miss you on here. Too many know it all types and the "cool kids" taking over post with their immaturity shining through with each comment. I'm pretty sure I'm done with this site. I'll still use it to track my food/macros. But the constant doom and gloom is nauseating. Anyways I know it's not an AIRPORT but I'm announcing my departure🙂🤣 This place is losing more good people than it's keeping. One with any inkling of common sense would seem to find that worrisome. Fatsecret seems to not to be to concerned.  

I agree 100% Cindy. It takes a lot to scroll on by. Curiosity killed the cat, as the old saying goes. Love & hugs right back at ya. 

@Cindy and @Joe: since the two of you represent FS on other sites, why not ask FS to add the block feature or push the issue of removing toxic members? 

It’s too bad the complaints about toxic behavior aren’t being taken seriously. I’ve reported spammers many times and they have been removed quickly. Not sure why this should be any different. As for me, I’ve decided I’m spending too much time here anyway. L Even the original airport comment was uncalled for, IMO. Maybe in time the air will clear. Til then y’all take care! 

yup hard not to watch the train wreck 🤣🤣 stay safe on your ride that is hot to workout outside yikes  

I actually did yesterday I had what I thought was a good back and forth with whoever runs the Twitter account. They stated they didn't condone one person's actions on here. But nothing has been done to my knowledge. Still a bunch of trolls on here who hate their lives so bad. That they come here to project their own failures and lack of self-worth onto innocent members daily. Then the constant you have to do this diet, this workout, BLAH BLAH BLAH. I've spoken with fatsecret through email but they never seem to care enough to implement a change. With said block and or mute button. It would literally solve all of this! But no they tell you to do what Cindy had mentioned. Oh report them then you won't see them which last a few days then they're back. Or like she said someone else you follow engages with said person and boom you're right back to staring at the crash as you scroll by. This place is supposed to be a tool,, a community, a place to come on tough days of tracking. But anyways... not to ramble as I normally do🙂So my point JB I've reached out to FS on multiple platforms to no avail. So it's continue to see a bunch of negative BS ON HERE DAILY. Or make the right decision and use the app but not engage in the social side of it. Which is truly unfortunate to say the least. I've been helped by several people on here for the few years I've been here. I'd like to think I've also helped a few. This place at one point was one of my favorite outlets!  

Sorry to highjack your comment section, Cindy, but you helped me, Joe! I exercised two days in a row and am totally weak with sh!t endurance and I'm going to keep at it! So, don't board that plane "thinking" you helped someone - take off "knowing" you did! 

oh my, that's way too hot. Cindy, you'll need to run in the middle of the night 😂😂 have a good bike ride though, hopefully in some shade 

@Joe and @Cindy: What I meant was, can you let FS know that you know longer wish to promote this site or be their representative because this community is not a positive place to get healthy? 

@joe and @cindy Ive said if a couple of times if people would absolutely ignore that person..make no response at all…she would get no benefit from being nasty and eventually would stop i would think. Im like you Cindy. I read the back and forth but it just makes me feel sad for that person who is clearly so unkind that the misery they are in is almost palpable. I have had so much help on this site and the accountability feature is truly helpful. I would hate for either of you to leave. I understand but just go back to ignoring negative nasty comments and there is no furtherance of the rhetoric she spews. Take care you two. 

I agree with all of what you are saying but Joe you are such an inspiration and I love reading about your life Cindy. I feel like you both have inspired others with your stories. I know there is a lot of drama but it will pass and doesn't the good you are doing through this site outweigh the bad? I have had things said to me and I will converse with others until it gets toxic and then I ignore. I respect your right to do what you think is right but know you will be missed.💜💜💜💜💜 

I feel unsafe when I read the insanity which sometimes goes on in this site. I report bad behavior every time, but it seems to no avail. I use the FS site to faithfully record my food & I love reading through everyone's messages. But the feelings of unsafety have caused me to temporarily place my file on 'private'. I hope I can open up more in the future....and hope that you are not really leaving us Joe and Cindy...we need all the sane good people we can get. Happy thoughts to all! 

I agree, don't leave. Just coming back off a long hiatus myself and I knew I would run into this kind of crap again, it was the Diet Wars in 2014, it's the diet wars in 2023. It won't go away, all of the firing back and forth drove me away before and I'm right back here again, I do better with the positive support I get here. Just have to try to ignore the shit stirrers, take the good, leave the bad. You have to do that in AA, I can do it here this time around. 

Listen... people come and go all the time- especially the looney ones. just ignore and do your thing.  

Joe- that profile pic is grand. Really fantastic progress!  

Joe, I'll miss you too! Hate for you to leave us. You are such a positive light on here. I am not necessarily leaving myself, just taking a break. I deleted my app but can still stop by the the desktop site. You're right Joe it is so draining, why can't we hide certain parts of our feed?  

Thank you carbabuser! sheet cake I don't hate it here completely but I feel ya, it can be so frustrating  

JB that did cross my mind. I don't know if I want to go that far, but I'll think on it  

Rhumba girl, same, I spend too much time here. If I visit less often I don't have to let negative people affect my mood  

thanks Otb it was cooler by the time I went out, thank goodness
