That's a really great point!

I A B S O L U T E L Y A D O R E the wide neck, off shoulder tops and dresses. Cold shoulder as well. Be bold and don the plunging neckline as well. I have a mommy tummy and generally avoid more fitted attire but love an empire, plunging neckline dress that flares out. Blouson styles are our friends as well (ie, rompers, jumpsuits that have the lower, elastic waistline and looks like a loosely tucked in top) Shape wear is a great tool to smoothe out our profile as well.

A wedge sandal or flip-flop or a kitten heel helps to elongate the leg.

Not clothing, buttt, Lipstick. Venture out of your comfort zone and try a new shade of lipstick. It brings the eye upwards.

Most importantly...Learn to love yourself where you are. Even when we lose weight we can see ourselves as we used to look. If I could tell young me one thing, it's love yourself. We are our own worst critic.

We're planning on making vegan 'crab' cakes, with Lion's Mane Mushroom as the substitute for crab, but I need the nutritional data on how many calories, sodium, protein, fiber, potassium, phosphorus and so on is in a serving. But when trying to find the info in Cronometer, the suggestions seem to be powders and supplements, instead of the actual Lion's Mane Mushroom for eating. Googling the closest I get to such information are these two websites: https://cascadiamushrooms.com/blogs/cm/the-lion-s-mane-mushroom-nutrition-profile-and-other-benefits and http://www.eattheweeds.com/lions-mane/ but I need Cronometer to actually have it in the system for repeated use. Can Cronometer please provide that information so I can have it in my diary?

Ironically enough Cronometer is highly recommended in the plant based and vegan community because of it's accuracy in nutritional values and with it being able to track deficiëncies within the diet. Many very health aware plant based people use this to track if their nutritional profile is optimal because we are bombarded by media claiming it is not suffeciënt in all compounds we need. Where supported by goverments all over the world is it shown to be an adequate diet and the health aware part of this population has the lowest average deficiëncies on any diet. Hench their attraction to this forum.

My supprise when I was just looking at @Plantchompers on youtube mentioning a very pro meat advocate Gabrielle Lyon.. to log-in to my cronometer and see you featuring her on this platform.

Now this feels like a major disconnect to me and it might put alot of your daily users off from the plantform (already seen posts about this within the communities) because suddenly your neutral normative value feels comprimised with a heavy pro animal protein insentive.

To balance it out I would reques Cronometer also takes someone from the other side of the spectrum like Dr. Klaper, Dr. Barnard, Dr. Greger or any to review the same information from their point of view to make sure it is adressed form both sides of the spectrum. Even better would be to have Colin Cambell on here because he has a pretty good take on protein sources from his last book.

I would highly advice to consider this Cronometer because you did yourself no favour in this part of your userbase by not checking the extreme obvious bias your featured interview has. Also the you should really add fact checking into references from the interview before posting it. Because alot of references from the interview were wonky at best. Not a good look from being an evidence based source of nutritional information.

The main reason I still turn to MFP is because of the community, it's nice to connect with people and message them while going through your journey. It can be hard to do it alone.
