    You can't read one long paragraph composed in succession?
    Who gives a rats (__!__) how the post was composed "paragraph wise", as it's the content that matters not the presentation. I could understand if it were a layout of the timing of meals/training, yes, but for general background and where he wishes to go, all one needs is patience and the ability to read. Posting a gripe about how one presents his/her intro doesn't help the user at all, tactile advice does. It comes across as you just being too lazy to read one extended paragraph and/or the inability to provide actual legit/intellectual advice.

    Just a thought for the future, not a flame but instead constructive criticism, the kind you learn from and move on with actual execution and practice of the newly learned skill-set.

    In regards to the original thread starter, I'd use the advice from "jamy" and you will then see a host of helpful people chime in. You have to lay out something to be critiqued as from what I've learned in my short time here thus far, you can't expect someone to compose an entire diet and outline for you w/out any effort put forth initially on your part.
    Not a flame at all, just "seconding" the advice of jamy as it was good advice to help you, unlike the 2nd post which was a complete non-sequitor and should be sh*t-canned aka deleted IMHO.

    we advise our members to space out thoughts so we can better read and understand what they say..

    Mate i was giving the OP a tip on how he should set out his post. Thats it.

    He probably didn't know. But now he does because of me - not because you decided to throw your 240 words in about how my advise was no good.

    Because of my advise he will get better feedback. The guys on this forum sit down and think about every person's post on here and give good advise. Why should it be made harder on them when they have to read a large clump of words.

    If you don't agree with something i say in regards to diet - ok - argue. But don't sit half way across the world and type out some crap on the internet about "people don't need to worry about how they write posts blah blah blah"

    Sorry OP for Cheylayna1978's post and this post.
