when all else fail, read the maunal

[Catharina]

Hi

At long last I have read the rules ::

Hi to all. I have already posted some posts, but thought I would be polite and introduce myself:

My name is Catharina, I am 34 years of age, 1,64m and weighed 72kg. I would like to weigh 52kg. At the moment I am at 60kg, and have been for a while.

I thought it would be good to get a support structure to loose those final kgs, and I am looking forward to my time here with you guys, who are in the same boat.

Good dieting fellow dieters - may the day be calorie perfect!

Cat

Hello Catharina. My best wishes to your goals.

Hey fellow calorie cutter!

Thanks size32someday -

I fear I have been making myself unpopular here (at least my husband and my mother still loves me) by taking on nasty moderators who can only reply with sarcastic remarks, instead of solid information.

Sorry, just had to get that off my chest.

Anyway - I wish you a splendid journey towards size 32, may it be informative and help you grow personally (not literally!)

Cat

Ah Cath, here I was coming to say welcome to the forum but it appears you feel like I am just snide remarking than solid information.

Should we discuss the Detox thread where you have not provided anything about detox actually working as it says compared to my providing links including the Mayo Clinic which is considered a gold standard in the medical community?

Look, People are going to disagree with you here. It's a public forum. The mod in front of my name doesn't mean I have to hold your hand. I have not attacked you, I have disagreed with you. The best you did with said disagreement is that we agree to disagree. No, we don't. You can't say we agree to disagree when one person provides evidence and you just smile and move on like it doesn't exist.

Again, you want to post in your greeting that I'm a nasty mod? Fine. Everyone has their opinions..but don't say that I don't provide information then ignore any discussion about it.

Do not try to disguise your true intent with this post, Jericho.

Proof enough that all the civilized (and 'uncivilized') nations use to cleanse themselves up to the 20th century, and stopped just when the pharmaceutical companies started doing the research? And them giving 'advice'? Sometimes one has to think for oneself.

... as it says compared to my providing links including the Mayo Clinic which is considered a gold standard in the medical community?

Yes, thank you, the same medical standards set up by above mentioned pharmaceutical giants?

Look, People are going to disagree with you here. It's a public forum. The mod in front of my name doesn't mean I have to hold your hand. I have not attacked you, I have disagreed with you.

I am fine with disagreements. Were I have a problem, is when ppl come to a support forum, ask a question, and get a sarcastic remark from a moderator, suggesting at even worse solutions, and making light of serious diseases, like bulimia, instead of sound advice. This is not about the detox tread. It is about the poor person with the ephedrine, you chose to take out your childhood frustrations on.

The best you did with said disagreement is that we agree to disagree. No, we don't. You can't say we agree to disagree when one person provides evidence and you just smile and move on like it doesn't exist.

Thanks for your evidence, I will consider it in context.

Again, you want to post in your greeting that I'm a nasty mod? Fine. Everyone has their opinions..but don't say that I don't provide information then ignore any discussion about it.

I never mentioned your name.

Really Cath? how many other mods have you been in contact with on the forum? I checked. You haven't. If you want to play point/counterpoint, then let's begin.

1) Don't tell me what my intent was since you are not me. I check all the threads.

2) Nations still use coccaine, doesn't mean it's a good thing. Scientific studies have shown there is NO proof to detoxing working.

3) I already know you are an alternative medicine person (other posts back that up) so yeah, I suspect you have a certain view of the medical industry but the Mayo Clinic is non-profit. They aren't back by the drug companies.

4) The statement about childhood frustrations is an attack at me. Keep it out of personal attacks. This is Me, the mod, talking not me the forum member.

5) Going to the ephedrine thread, read the whole thread. My advice was throw it out..much like everyone else. Now what happened was someone stated that the pills do actually work in short term. I agreed, just like bulimia. It is used to make a point. You took offense. Fine. That will happen but instead of taking it as a whole, you lashed at me. Again, fine. You aren't the first and won't be the last.
