I really don't think that if you say "Hey, I'm working out. How's my diet look?" that it makes it on topic. We seem to be accepting and answering more and more diet questions where they detail a diet and stick in an obligatory "And I work out for 1-2 hours" somewhere in there. To me, that's off topic. It would be nice if the nutrition proposal got past commit stage, but it's crawling... | |

| Dec 20, 2013 at 12:46 | comment | added | Baarn | @Kate, this isn't something I personally want or not. I explained how help center allows those questions, but they are getting closed despite that. And I think that most people here are able to answer those questions, while we are probably not capable to answer the professional nutrition questions, we sure can give general weight-loss advice. My question is whether we want those questions or not. In conclusion we should modify the on-topic section or define how much we can or want to accept. | |
