    He's a hero to us formerly starving people who taught us there is another way to lose fat, without starving.

    Some say, he poses semi-naked for MFP photos and reads volumes and volumes of nutrition information before writing articles on how to lose weight safely.

    All we know is, he's called helloitsdan.

    I am wondering who "helloitsdan" is....
    Does he own MFP?

    No... the owners and even moderators on MFP don't really participate or interact that much on the forums, other than to close topics. :indifferent:

    That's true. The only mod I see participating is psulemon, and he seems pretty cool and informed.

    All I know is I lost a bunch of weight with the MFP formula but until i read the roadmap I had no idea why I stopped losing or why i was losing in the first place. It helped break my stall and my wife's as well.

    He bought MFP back in 1838 for $12

    I heard it was for 2 long horns and a rifle...

    Two cream horns and a trifle?!!

    :happy: Nicely done!

    Naughty bad-for-me food on my brain... does it show?!!

    I went to a trainer, a nutritionist, read countless articles and it was only when I came to MFP and read Dan's IPOARM, and came across heybales spreadsheet and Sidesteel's advice did I finally understand the concept of Fat Loss and not just weight loss. I still sometimes meander but all I need to do is read the IPOARM, go back to heybales spreadsheet and I get myself straightened out again!!!

    hahahaha!
    Dan's okay, he tries to help others but sometimes shoves his belief a bit too much.

    You'll have to admit I've been an angel this year.

    Dan fuels his body, so he can outrun zombies, or freaky cult followers. That's kinda the point.
