Can someone remind me how to block Chit Chat on the forums?
I've had it blocked since shortly after I joined MFP, but now it's back for some reason and I don't remember how I got rid of it the first time. I had forgotten how much I hated it taking up what could otherwise be worthwhile space! Thanks in advance :)

Why do doctors encourage such low cal diets/rapid loss?
Why do doctors so often (according to posters) sign off on or even prescribe extremely low cal diets? Even if there is concern about a medical condition, isn't this extremely hard on the body and much more difficult to achieve, sustain, and later transition from to maintenance? It seems extremely counter-productive and…

Why is my database all jumbled together?
I normally use the MFP website from my computer but was gone for a few days and logged in from my tablet (didn't log food- just checked in.) Since I've been back, when I go to log food, instead of giving me a list of previous choices under say "breakfast", it is jumbling all of my most recent entries from all meals. I…

Is it possible to do a search in "groups"?
Maybe I'm looking right over it, but who wants to scroll through thousands of groups looking for ones that are right for them?

What's the deal with liquid aminos?
I had seen liquid aminos featured on a program dedicated to healthy cooking, so I ordered some and was thrilled to discover it does, in fact, taste just like soy sauce. But I thought the advantage was supposed to be that it had trace amounts of sodium. When I examined the labels closely, the liquid aminos has 320 mg/tsp…

What exactly is going on here?
So, my husband and I started on MFP about the same time, me needing to lose 70-80 lbs, him wanting to lose about 10 and just get in better shape. He's always been active and is a lifter. I think he was about 187 when he started (5'10"). 40 days in for me, 37 for him, I've lost about 8 lbs (my goal is set at 1.5/wk) and…

Friending/unfriending etiquette
I'm a person who's concerned about the feelings of others, even on a website full of strangers. I know these questions will make some roll their eyes- and no need for you to post, right? ;) - but if you are the same way, maybe you can share your thoughts: [* If someone sends you a friend request, and you just don't think…

Ideas for homemade Fiber One lemon bars?
Love the Fiber One lemon bars, but feel they are too expensive for what you get. I've ordered some lemon chips and am looking for ideas on how to duplicate them at home. I'd like to avoid white flour as much as possible. Can anybody help me out?

possible to put recipe in database?
I know this isn't the right forum for this question, but it isn't giving me the option to create a thread in tech support. I've done a search on my question there, but the returns were several years old and I wonder if things have changed. Is it possible to share a recipe I've entered with my husband's account or…

Do you automate meals/ what's favorite?
When I first heard about automating meals, I thought, "Ugh! Weight loss is hard enough- why would you want to eat the same thing everyday?" That was a few years ago, and guess what? I automate my breakfast now. And I didn't even really set out to do it. I found a nutritious breakfast I really like that I can make minor…

navigation question
I'm sure this is a dumb question, but is there a way to keep track of discussions you're involved in that you didn't start? There have been a couple of discussions I've wanted to check back in on at a later time, but it's been really time consuming to try to find them again. Thanks!

How accurate are the cal limits on MFP?
Just getting started, and the cal limit it gave me based on my profile seems a little high for a woman in her mid 40s and a slowing metabolism. In your experience (especially if you're older), how well are your cal limits working out for you? Do they seem pretty accurate?

Are you in the same boat as me?
Are any of these true of you? * In your 40s? * 50+ lbs to lose? * Body starting to tank on you? * Losing weight isn't as easy as it used to be? * Wanting healthy, balanced change? Yikes- sounds like a gimmicky weight loss commercial! I'm actually just looking for others facing the same challenges to share support, helpful…
