    Could we add:

    Lose = "I am trying to lose weight and I'm hoping you can help", not to be confused with Loose = "I would really like my pants to be loose in a month"

    PLEASE!!!!!

    QFT, because that is a pet peeve of mine as well. However, those are neither terms nor acronyms, so I'm afraid we will have to be grammar Nazis about that! :D

    I think the first post should be changed slightly to correct the meaning of "Bump" =)

    But you used it for the other meaning yourself further up this page!

    I think the one on the first page for bump is actually "Tagged", no? ;p

    Been using mfp for a few years off and on and had no idea what most of these things meant.

    Hello all, the list has been updated. Enjoy! :blush: I forgot to edit my dates in the top of the post, but otherwise, it was updated 10/22. Many thanks to Steven for reposting the OP!

    Thanks for this.

    But of course, men of my age always have to do a quick translation for ED. At my age, ED means something entirely different. :)

    Gunna have a squizz later

    I had to look that up to see what that meant. If it gets used alot here, I may have add it!

    Only place I could find it was on Urban Dictionary: Squizz. Slang for "taking a look" at something. Person, "My leg hurts!" Doctor friend, "Here, let me have a squizz."

    Found NEAT on another post, had to google it but lead back to MFP:

    NEAT stands for Non Exercise Activity Thermogenesis
    Your TDEE would just be the sum of your BMR and your NEAT.
