    i'm new to the message boards, coming off major hip surgery and have been working out like crazy but keeping to 1200 cals per day - found this very helpful (and not condescending) thanks!

    Thanks I needed to hear/read this yet again. Makes complete sense when reading it. I am trying those suggestions this week. I think I do not eat enough

    Awesome!! I, like some on this topic, have been reading Tom Venuto and after I started reading I changed the way I think about food and exercise. I am not there 100% yet--I think I have a mental block still on how many calories I should eat each day especially if I dont get to exercise, but I am working on it and trying to do better. Thanks for spending the time to put the initial post together.

    Thanks to the last person who brought your message back to the recent posts forum - I joined MFP after your initial post.

    A very big thanks to you for a well-written and informative explanation of what we all are looking to achieve by joining this site - a lifestyle change that will lead to a healthy life for many years to come. The problem is that most of this know what we want to do but not how to achieve that goal. Your posting should be made a sticky one, where everyone would be able to see it when they join.

    Thanks :flowerforyou:

    Since you commented on this, it will be in your list under MY TOPICS if you ever want to review it again!

    Thanks so much for the tip! I had no idea. I only use certain features of the site and really should take the time and do more.

    Glad I got to read this at the beginning of my journey. Helps prevent me from pulling out my hair if I stall. As Oprah has said, "The scale is not your friend"!!!
