hmm hmm hmm. It still feels a lot safer than sugar to eat, but so does honey, sugar is just..refined crap. Ok ok point is don't bother using a cup of it in cooking because it tastes like shit when you bake it. If you gonna die in the end, make NICE cake, you know? Unless you're diabetic.

Thank God. I thought I was overrreacting when I wanted to bitch-slap the person who posted about OMFGZZZZ 96 cals/cup of Splenda. If I wanted to frequent the "proana" community on livejournal, I'd be there not at the Purg. But as someone who can easily consume an entire half gallon or two of ice cream or two or three batches of cookies with (gasp) SUGAR, I found it hard to feel bad for the poster who was lamenting her newfound discovery of 96 calorie per cup Splenda.

Frieda, you can't leave the purg. There are a few really great members there whose posts I really enjoy, and you are one of them. I look forward to logging on to see if you have any words of wisdom or general bitchery.

I agree whole heartedly though. OMGZ! I had a cup of yougurt I am going to gain 120000 lbs. Ugh, go fuck yer self.

Anyway, take care and keep your head on as straight as ya can.

.... -------- ..... --------- .....

that's about my head right now, dots, dashes and blanks, however i love you! i got your mail and i'm gonna reply in the soontimes. i've just been busy and distracted and all that jazz, but mostly managing rather well. i will elaborate in an email.

so, you actually done in purge? i think we should re-claim that place! seriously, it was always self-moderated so if we all leave there will be splenda-dramas all over the place and that just won't do.

Oh hell, if you came back I'd be delirious. Right now I feel like my pleas for order are falling on deaf, calorie counting, stats-listing, STGW fantasizing, diet pill ringing ears. What the hell has happened?

I am grateful for you!
I have been hiding away from the purge too just because it is not what it used to be, but I can't delete it...I just can't. It holds a special place in my heart *vomit* Haha, who says that?
Hopefully the people who aren't really purge material (such as we are) will leave and we can get back to rebuilding it to what it was and what we loved...

i consider my safe foods
coke zero, green tea, splenda, other "no calorie" things.
i eat them on top of my calorie "limit."
so yeah, it does add up.
and that does scare me.
sorry for the splenda post
maybe i'm more strict/worried about my calorie intake than most people.

I don't mean to hurt feelings, and I think what you wrote may have triggered some things in people, including myself, that brought out the ferocious in us. You have the right to post what you want, that's what great about the purg. No one is going to delete you or ban you for your point of view. The flip side of that freedom, though, is dealing with everybody else's opinions, good, bad or indifferent.
I hope you decide to stick around.......

I stress about my calorie intake too, I don't think you're so different in that way......

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

And oh yeah, I'm addicted to coke zero and diet lipton green tea.....

Aw I feel so left out :(
Frankly, my 12 or so extra calories from Splenda a day don't fucking bother me. And I'm grateful for its utter lack of baking calories. Mmmm, splenda is love.
