Red face Well hello there! Newbie coming through!
Hey my names Mike, i'm here really for research purposes to learn a little more about specific diets as i run a diet related review website.

I'm no spammer, so i'm not going to post my website address... fingers crossed i'll be able to learn quite a bit from this forum.

Thanks for your time

Welcome Sabian! We really don't talk too terribly much about specific diets so to speak, but we do show people how to create calorie deficits that are tailored to a person's weight loss goals.

Re: Well hello there! Newbie coming through!
Thanks for the welcome admin

Basically the site i run (or am current working on improving) provides (at the moment) about 10 of the most popular diets... essentially its a diet review website with information (pros and cons) of each diet listed as well as a rather unique voting system allowing people to provide an unbiased opinion on each diet they have tried... hence providing other visitors with an idea of how effective (or uneffective) a specific diet is.

What i want to do is expand... i want to research better information on each diet, introduce more popular diets as well as even adding some form of online weight/bmi as well as some articles or stories written by real people with real experiences of specific diets...

I'm 8st 9lb so i don't really have the perspective at the moment... however i do have the hunger for knowledge

Might also be interested in getting a link in the favourite sites tab if you'd like to drop me a pm to discuss.

Cheers

BMI is a waste in my opinion.....I wouldn't bother with it; it's a very inaccurate measuring standard.

Thanks for the greeting admin; i have responded to your pm.

So if not BMI, what online calculator would be of use/interest?

I think the ratio of your hip and waist measurments is supposed to give you an accurate representation of your current health.
