Where is, "My Blog?"
When I look at the choices above my home page there is a "Blog," but no longer "My blog" I've written and saved a lot of things that are important to me on my blog and now I can't find it. Were the personal blogs all deleted?

Anti-psychotic meds and weight gain.
Some people have expressed an interest in this problem, so , without suggesting radical calorie restriction, I thought we should discuss it. First of all, anti-psychotics should not be confused with anti-depressants like Prozac or Wellbutrin. Examples of anti-psychotics are Abilify, Zyprexa, Clozapine, and Haldol. They are…

Diet Drinks
Just saw in the news that two diet drinks a day increases our risk of heart attack and stroke. Here. I decided, long ago, to quit drinking calories, not even healthy smoothies, because I just don't get as much satisfaction from calories I can't chew.

What I gained over the holidays...
...and what it will take to lose it. I gained 13 pounds in December. That means I probably exceeded my caloric needs by about 1700 calories per day.

I was sixteen the first time I tried the 1200 calories per day regimen and I lost ten pounds the first week. Later on, through…

What does "woo," mean on this forum?
At first I thought it meant, "Yay!" but I've seen people dismiss certain bad fad diets as, "A bunch of woo." So now I'm not sure what to think when someone clicks the "woo," under a post. (Thanks for bothering with this dumb question.)

Quit Putting Yourselves Under a Microscope!
I see so many posts where people have included selfies, close ups of little "flaws," like a bit of loose skin or a few stretch marks -- don't do that to yourselves! Standing in front of the mirror examining our bodies for imperfections is a recipe for despair. We probably aren't ever going to look like Victoria Secret…

My blogs don't stick!
Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? I click on "My blog," I click on "New Post," I write my post. I click on "Save." I x out, come back, nothing is there.

How are you tracking pounds lost?
I click on the scale and change my weight but my daily page still shows "0" pounds lost. Same with the fitness tracker. How do I put numbers on it? signed, Tech Moron
