I think its important to preface any advice we give with "what works for me is..."

Too many people on this site become experts too fast. I love getting tips and helpful info but we should remember that unless our info comes from a professional (trainer, dr, nutritionist, etc) its just our opinion and it's not set in stone nor is it right or wrong.

    totally agree, what is ok for one, may be the complete wrong thing for another!
    that said, i dont think anything is advised always a bad thing, just that each person has their own needs.
    we need to be mindful of that!!

    I agree with what you are saying but I don't really think we should have to preface everything with "this is just my opinion" or "this is just something that worked for me". I receive and give lots of advice here. I think that we all know that this is a community based site and we should realize that, as such, any information is just opinion. I have never personally thought that because someone suggested it that is either correct or safe.

    With respect to your statement .." Too many people on this site become experts too fast. " LOL..in fact..LMAO! Hmm - perhaps that should read... "perceived ".. experts! What "baffles" me is some of the questions and/or topics. Seriously - Some of the stuff - posted...puuhhhlllease - get a life../or better ...get some friends who actually know you ...personally. Yeah - probably going to get 'ripped" for this one. LOL! Hence why I seldom post..... Ohhh well!
