BMR, TDEE, and BMI Calculator
In an attempt to help other dieters in the 5:2 Fasting group I've created a calculator that addresses many of the limitations found in others around the web. It is completely self-contained (on one page) and has no ads or annoying redirects; only info directly related to BMR, TDEE, and BMI. I'm just paying it…

5:2 Fasting group
This is just a public announcement for anyone searching for the original "5:2 Fasting" group. It went missing...it was there on Friday (Oct 10, 2014) and gone Saturday morning. It was not deleted by the owner. Emails and public questions were directed to MyFitnessPal, but we've still not received a reply. In the interim…

Fun Stuff: Our Group Catchphrase
Like the logo, when I created the banner I did it quickly the morning the old group was deleted. So, I'd like for all of us to collaborate on a new catchphrase..."the 5:2 fasting experience" isn't bad, but I'm sure someone out there doesn't really "dig" the groovy little 1970's Dating Game look/feel I gave it. The plan (if…

Fun Stuff: Our Group Logo
The group belongs to all of us and I'd like to get everyone in the mix, so why don't we have a logo contest? The logo I made... ...was created quickly the morning the old group vanished. I'm sure one of us can come up with something better. It doesn't look like we can send images to each other privately...that would of…

My Promise (as new owner)
So here we are...the old group is supposedly gone for good and we need to start looking ahead. First let me say that if everyone (collectively) wants to start a new group with a new name, new direction, etc. then that's fine, I'll go where everyone else does...I'd rather stay together than be an owner of a group. That…

Fun Stuff: Our Group Banner
I'd like to start something that I think would be fun... As I've stated before, the group is all of ours, so I'd like to allow anyone who's interested to submit a background for the group banner. Another thread has been started to come up with a group catchphrase; when that has been finalized I plan to put the group title…

Bad News: MFP says they can't restore the old group.
MyFitnessPal has informed me that the group was deleted by the owner and that they can not "at this time" restore the group. MissMaggie3, the owner of the original group told me she didn't delete it and passed ownership to 2 other users (I didn't know you could do that) several months ago. So now you know what I know.…

What happened to the original 5:2 Fasting group?
I came in this morning and the "5:2 Fasting" group was missing. I created this group in case others had the same experience. I have no idea what happened... Did I get banned from the original? Did the original owner erase the whole group? Can you even do that? I wrote an email to technical support, I'll let everyone know…

Recreating Old Content (frustration setting in)
I don't know if we should keep waiting...I mean waiting on MyFitnessPal to respond. Right now I can get some of the old 5:2 Fasting threads through Google cache, but I'm not sure what the expiration is on old content. Should we start re-creating some of the threads that were important to us? I would really hate to have to…
