sometimes you need to be cruel to be kind and i have no problem being the person everyone loves to hate. it had to be said and i said it - no regrets besides the HTFU comment.
Darryn, it is NEVER kind to be cruel and you should regret this entire thread.
If a newbie joined KA today and read this thread do you actually think they would be inspired by what you have said to try the NSD? NO WAY! I'm afraid your good intentions are hugely misguided. What you said and the way you said it would have instantly got their back up and put them in defence mode. It's unlikely they would even consider trying the diet now. You are doing more harm than good.
If instead they were greated with positive success stories and a suggestion to perhaps try the diet as an option at some stage and see if it worked for them then they might just consider it. And who knows, if it did work for them they could be on their way to pain-free days ahead.
As an advocate of the NSD and the spouse of someone doing fantastically on it and also as a moderator here, I beg of you...please stop these kinds of posts. You are truly helping NOONE if you continue in this manner.
