"Gaining weight is not a big deal, if you don't like it you can always lose it again"
(Please read the following before posting a response)
This is the third topic for discussion in relation to the FA board project "FA Myths and Misconceptions". The above myth was suggested for discussion by Tad and will be discussed for 2 weeks in this thread before being edited and ultimately posted to the FA Myths and Misconceptions sticky.
The aim of the 'FA Myths and Misconceptions' project is create a useful and helpful resource for all FAs, but it is presumed to be of likely specific benefit to the new and/or inexperienced among us for whom misconception and misunderstanding may be most common.
Please keep discussion on topic and productive. Any off topic discussion, flaming, personal attacks or thread crashing will be deleted.
Also... I am aware that this particular myth is likely to be an emotive issue. Please remember to keep contributions in the spirit of the project; informative, helpful and useful to emerging FAs. I will edit out personalized attacks or aggressive posts.
