You seem to have missed out one of the obvious ones;

CICO - calories in/calories out

Not frequently used here, but will add on next edition.

You must be kidding. It's used a lot on the site.

Well, I've not been here in about a year, must be a relatively new term. As I said, I will add it, next edition.

CICO - Calories in / Calories out
%BF - percent body fat
FFM - fat free mass - body weight without fat, same as LBM
LBM - lean body mass - same as FFM
HR - Heart Rate
RMR - Resting Metabolic Rate, sometimes incorrectly used interchangeably with BMR

Will add these also.

It's MFP's profanity filter. Anytime someone uses a swear word the site automatically replaces it with *kitten*.

What does WOO mean?

Reliata

Why isn't "woo" or "kitten" on here. These are new and confusing terms to me.
