The purpose of this group.

Sarauk2sf and I will routinely get questions in our inbox regarding general nutrition or fitness. Since we happen to share the same philosophies, and agree on just about everything, we decided to form this group as an attempt to help people get their questions answered without having to filter through some of the information on the general forums.

We don't claim to have all the answers, but this group is a vehicle for us to share our opinions and help others.

    Thanks for creating this. I usually end up with information overload, mostly coming from the ED community. So now my understanding of nutrition and training has become confused at best.

    We will be here, skipping hand in hand through your journey with you, helping you embrace your lifestyle change with cheer leading pom poms (well, the pom poms will be waved by SS).

    Glad you two stepped up and created this group. Nice to have a place with a built-in BS filter where people can get straight info.

    BTW, which cleanse do you recommend? :bigsmile:

    I will most likely be coming here often. Good information here and the things you suggested to me in that post I made.
    Thank you

    Also, Merry Christmas to all :) It's my 22nd birthday today, too. My top goal is to get in shape this new upcoming year.

    I don't know how I missed this gem??:sad:

    Thanks to Miss Controversial it popped up in my news feed.

    Oprah style: you get a :flowerforyou: and you get a :flowerforyou: , even you.. yes you! you get a :flowerforyou: too!

    Big kudos to Sarah and SS for this!
  • Thank goodness I found this place, somewhere to escape from the madness of the main boards. Great info and easy to understand, thank you
  • Thanks for creating this group! I think I wandered over here when I noticed a post by someone (SideSteel maybe?)

    I appreciate a rational approach to fitness and weight loss, so I was excited to find people who cite peer reviewed research and debunk myths in the forums. I have read so many things on the forums that are ridiculous and plain untrue (or at least, the person saying them can't even back up their claims). It makes me so mad!
