Ok, I've about had enough with the handful of people on here that are negative and miserable. I find myself stepping out of character and sticking up for people against these "bullies". I hate the drama and I hate to argue. Especially when you are talking to brick walls and right fighters. What other groups or apps do y'all use? I'm thinking of weeding this one out. It makes me a little sad because I've found a few people who inspire me and who I follow their progress and vice Versa. But I can't deal with constant negativity, immaturity and pure hatefulness. Drop some links below if you are in any other groups I can get in an app on my phone. Thanks y'all!

I've found a few good groups on Facebook.

Is this your first online forum? I'm asking because this place is super sweet compared to the other boards I frequent/used to frequent. It's just the nature of the internet and it's actually not any worse than when I joined my first forum The Knot 12 yrs ago.

If you are an online forum newbie I'll give you some advice: you don't have to respond to every post you find negative, actually it's best that you just move along because that's how entire threads go left. It's just fanning the flames...no good can come of it

LMAO welcome to the world of Internet forums, this one is actually quite a bit nicer than most Bariatric forums. So my advice Suck it up Buttercup!
