I am a little more than disappointed at this supposed "support" forum. It seems to me like it has gone down hill very fast and somebody forgot the brakes! I feel I have gotten very little support and berated for what I have learned in my life. (tears) I just want to thank Ken for his support. Not only do I feel very little support but I feel like I am the outsider. Any suggestions of how these things can change? Maybe I am just not using this board properly but I think I am done for awhile. All the bickering and whatever else that has been going on doesn't do anybody any good especially if you are a stress eater. Bye and I hope everyone good luck with their life changes.

What messages did you post that you aren't getting support from? I'm sorry if I have neglected to give you support when needed........there has been some bickering going on, but it was just to resolve the way people refer to the heavier ones of us ;)..........noone means to overlook you if we have..........smiles not tears

wait, wait, wait! please don't leave. I know it seems like the last couple of days have been weird. I've been here or at least 4 months and there is always an ebb and flow in the posts. It will be resolved quickly and we will go on to bigger and better things (or should it be littler and better things, hmmmm.lol). Anyhow, I would just encourage you to stick around and try to glean what you can. When you are around for awhile, the friendships that devolop go through some of the same processes that any relationship would. Some come, come go, some don't like you, some do. You know? Honestly, we're here for you if you want ot stick around.

Jennifer please don't go...I love reading your posts, honest, I learned a lot when you were talking about the caffine. You bring great points into discussions about things. Points that I wouldn't have thought of except that you thought of them and told them to us. If I haven't been very supportive of your posts it's because I don't know much about weight loss and good foods and bad foods and sodium and cholesterol and everything like that. You do know about that stuff and it helps me when you teach me. I've learned quite a bit from you. If you decide to leave afterall, then I just want to say thank you very much for all you have done for me and for this board.

Jennifer,
This is how you are paying me back for my support? Leaving?
:(
Not exactly an ego boost here. Now you are going to make me feel bad and guilty and why would you do that to me with so few days left? Nadine going to get me all sad and she will ask why are you sad and I'll say Jennifer left the board and she will hunt you down and beat you up with a stuffed cat and you don't want that
right?

Jennifer, I looked back at the last few days and yes there has been some bickering, but that comes and goes (Ken usually puts a stop to it), but really I can't see where you have not be supported OR berated.
If the board is stressing you out that much and your eating becasue of it by all means take a break from it, but don't leave altogether. And really is a message board something to stress over? No.
I don't understand why you feel like an outsider. Is there something else that is bothering you. Trust me, we are all here to support each other and if we or I have let you down I apologize.

Jennifer,,please don't leave.. sometimes we just need to ignore some of the posts and read the good ones.. You know which people are causing the problems so just try and ignore them. it'll eventually cool off in here.. it usually does..You've made wonderful progress so far and we all want to support you still. Please stay..we need your support too.... Don't go..

Jennifer, please don't leave us. The past few days have been very adnormal for this site. Almost everyone is is very supportive and means well, but there are a few that let negative poster get the best of them. Please just don't read their posts. We want you to stay. We need positive people here that have good advise and you are one of them.
Please don't go. :(

Jennifer, I really hope you stay with us.
I think you are an inspiration with your weight loss.
I dont understand the need you see to leave, but if you want to be in a perfect utopian society that get along al the time, then I guess this isn't the group for you, since we are all real people with our own minds and different opinions.
I can honestly say, I haven't seen one perfect message board group, where everyone is perfect.
I dont think it exists.
I mean, when we dont agree with our family members or when we have a little spat, we dont walk right out, do we?
Just because there were a few little disagreements on the board is no reason to leave.
For the most part we are all getting along.
I think you are being overly sensitive, I dont even see the need for tears.
get over it and have fun!
Jaide
