8hunter6's Journal, 25 April 2016

I'm a little annoyed to be honest..... the bits of advice I get from people by no means "saved me". I am the only one who can really take credit for my behavior, good or bad. someone told me about LCHF. I chose to do it... I did it in a way my body DIDN'T like. ... my fault.... I wanted to eat more vegetables and added a bunch of fruit... better for MY heart? ya probably. do I really need science to tell me that's the way to go? no. I knew there was a lot of sugar in fruit but I wanted it. didn't lose a pound. my fault. so I've reorganized my plan... I did.... no one wrote it for me. I am the one who wakes up and decides what I do and how I do it and I take responsibility and credit for what I do. so if one more person tries to say they did this for me?? I'm going to snap. unless I am kidnapped and force fed with a funnel, no one has the right to say they chose for me........ I agree with some information I've seen.... some I dont. I'm not going to argue with anyone else's decisions. .. know why? THEY ARE YOUR DECISIONS! every single person here makes their own choices. this can be both scary and very empowering! do not give your power to someone who claims to have "taken you under their wing" I HAVE POWER OVER MYSELF! all of you have the same power over yourself! I have read articles and books and all that jazz... I have information what I do with that is my choice. if anyone's advice rings true from what I've read? cool. great. wonderful. I still choose. I still decide. I still dictate my own life. .... and before anyone asks... no this isn't about one specific person. I've had a few who have tried to tell me what to do and try to "save" me. to these people? ... save yourself.

there is a big difference from offering information on your plan and another from trying to shove it in my face and tell others about how I'd die without them. or try and tell me how much I need them or some shit....... red flag for me is when you have to tell me how important you are in my life.. fyi...

I am more than ok. I'm great. I feel great. I feel more like myself. exactly!! support is great! dictators? not needed. it is supposed to be a community... I'm just setting my personal boundaries. I am not someone's pet project. ... I'm not playing tricks with you, that's for sure. don't be scared, I got your back.

Nowwww exactly how strongly do you feel against being kidnapped and fed with a funnel, because I don't have plans for the weekend and I'm gonna be bored? Lol sorry just kittens... I'm super proud of you and your take charge attitude! I find it both refreshing and inspiring! Can't wait to see what you accomplish! 💗👍

I agree with your post but personally I love reading about health articles that relate to my health journey and life style. I geek out on it. I love reading it and it inspires me to work harder. When I read the book Wheat Belly. It really pushed me to not touch wheat/grain ever again. Even when I want to treat myself. I agree you may choose to do something but there are things that motivate you to do it. Or influence you.

panigale... I like reading about all of it too. but i have had people say I couldn't have lost weight without them or they kept me from dying....... no they didnt. I did. I did this. I put myself here and I am the one digging myself out.

interdependence is what we should all strive for in every relationship. I don't like people who want to foster a dependant relationship... I don't think those people are well and I don't need them trying to make my mind sick with their nonsense.

8H6, great post and i agree with you. we are here to support each other on what works for them, not force our way of doing things on them. I support whatever works for you. I hope you have a great day. And keep making the great progress no matter what

I read books, and opinions here on FS and then do what best works for me. You are strong and capable - no one believes you need to be taken under wing - if they do, they are foolish! You go, Lady!

I know you said this wasn't directed at anyone in particular, and I really don't think it's directed at me, BUT if I've EVER come across that way, I unequivocally rescind and retract anything I've said or done that might have been communicated like that, sincerely.

thank you navymom :D. ...... Carmen (I'll call you Carmen now if you'd like) I understand you just fine. I will try to be more clear so you can understand me too :D

HCB thank you. yes that is what I try to do. I read and hear everyone and am trying to do what is right for me. I think it's the best way for everyone

8? that's perfect ... saves me clfrom cleaning up after dinner LOL

Yeah people who say they "saved" you need to get off their high horse. Plus I cannot stand people say they "help" people and claim a persons success on themselves. I agree with you. But not everyone is like that. There are good people who put free information out there to help people regardless if people take their advice or not. They do it in hopes to give people another option like Martin Berkhan for example

phil! I went to you, if you rememeber. you have especially been supportive of me lately when trying to figure what I need to do.......... no I have some gossiping about me and I've had private messages of people's "advice" and then later saying that they are the reason for my losses....  
25 Apr 16 by member: 8hunter6
panigale. .. yes there are wonderful amazing people on here!!! that's why I've stayed despite the bulls#it.... and the rising level of said bulls#it.... I just want to remind myself and others that we all have our own personal power and no one has the right to take it from you.

Yea, you don't owe your success to anyone but yourself. People can be helpful for guidance or support, but in the end it is 100% your hard work and determination.

She'll be singing a different tune after this weekend! I think I'll bring a funnel and cute shoes!

I don't think the zealots of "THE PLAN" know how much they hurt others by force feeding their WOE at us. I love how we all share what works for each of us and I love the recipes and photos people post. It makes me excited and more motivated. I do not like those that like to debate and argue about why their way is the only way to go. We can lose weight by low carb, low fat, CICO, counting points ... we each have to choose our own path. Love your post. I wish you success, Hunter. Hugs!
