    Not strictly acronyms but would it be worth adding the numerical IF shorties such as 16:8, 5:2, 4:3 etc?

    IF = Intermittent Fasting
    16:8 = 16 hours of fasting: 8 hours to eat your calories for the day
    5:2 and 4:3 are alternating days of eating at higher and lower calorie intakes. 5:2 & 4:3 have long explanations that are better explained in the Intermittent Fasting Groups or by Google.

    Thanks for this .. I wish I had know about it as I did question many of these (luckily Google did deliver for most of them for me).

    I don't know if DH (dear husband ... or darn husband as the case may be) and DW, DS, DD warrant being included. I have seen them used (and questioned) on the forums here and elsewhere :)

    If I were to copy and post this on my blog (I really don't have much a readership, it would be more for my reference) ... would that be ok OP?
