The atmosphere that can prevail here is one reason that I do not recommend people go to the discussion board when I am telling them about this way of eating for the first time. In fact, I warn them that the board is filled with rather opinionated people that do not necessarily represent the McDougall Program so just stick with the books, videos, and archived newsletters, at least in the beginning.
I no longer read many threads that I would have in the past. My preference now is to hang out with the foodies in the recipe forum.

I will see that that is clarified and that the regular program is put forward as the preferred plan for anything but swift weight loss. I'll make sure that isn't happening. Complaining might feel good but gets nothing resolved. Following the regular plan would be all the answers most of us need to resolve the health issues we face.

f1jim wrote:Yes that would be excellent, as simply complaining without any examples is useless for anyone that may be curious what you are talking about or for anyone trying to see that examples of this behavior are not tolerated. Either way, keeping silent helps no one. I'll keep my eyes out for your PM.
