(What The Fast?!) #1

I just wanted to give a GIANT thank you to @richard and @carl for creating this forum and setting the tone for a supportive, helpful community.

Since I started my keto journey, I’ve joined several groups on Facebook and whenever I have asked questions in those groups or expressed frustrations, there are people who jump down my throat or blast their opinions at you full force, like a super-powered blow-dryer of opinion to the face. I was even told today, “you are going to fail here and go back to whatever you were failing at before…”

SERIOUSLY?? Anyway - that doesn’t happen here and I’m sure that’s no accident. Somehow, this forum manages to stay supportive, the suggestions are gentle, and the people are caring. I know this was the intent of Carl & Richard and I’m so happy to be able to come here for advice, recipes, like-minded conversations, and even to vent.

Thanks guys!

Facebook is at once a wonderful way for people to connect with other human beings, and a cesspit of narcissists. That’s why we lit our Facebook forum on fire before we built the forums. Our goal here was to help people, and then help them help other people - it seems to be working which is great.

Wow. Sometimes I wonder about folks’ motivations (in the case of that person, what does she/he gain from saying that to you?).

Yes, agree that Richard and Carl have created an awesome atmosphere here!

This.

I cannot agree with this enough.
