    at the bottom of every page in every thread is this warning-

    Posts by members, moderators and admins should not be considered medical advice and no guarantee is made against accuracy.

    there are alot of people here who have actually lost weight and kept it off...their advice is probably going to be something you could follow if you are in similar circumstances

    there are alot of people here who are studying fitness and nutrition and there advice is usually going to be sound and safe advice

    there are also a whole bunch of people here who repeat what they hear and put their own little spin on it and turn decent advice into garbage or they repeat incorrectly what they have read or heard and turn it into a waste of time

    there are also people here who have no business advising anyone of anything, yet they do it with alarming recklessness

    I have done the same myself...what works for me may not work for you

    today, I read a guy's advice regarding weightlfting...he was totally wrong yet sounded like he was right..if the woman follows his advice...she will waste her time and delay her desired results

    my point is this....PLEASE...take the advice you get here with a grain of salt and get more than one opinion

    I am sure most people have good intentions...but the amount of wrong and even dangerous advice is pathetic

    some may say when I see it I should point it out...I do when I can and not tick off people but we are adults...just don't believe everything you read

    :heart:
    amen!:heart:
