Abbreviations/Acronyms-Dawn: was-Newbie Questions

November 1, 2005

Dawn,

WOE is " Way Of Eating " used as opposed to " Diet " . Diet has the negative

implication of a short-term thing.

PP = " Post-Prandial " meaning " after eating " . I don't commonly use this

abbreviation as it could be confused as being " Pre-Prandial " , but that's not

mentioned as frequently.

Now, " There Is a List " of Acronyms/Abbreviations posted in the " Shared

Files " section of the list's website.

This information is at the tag-end of all the posts you receive from the

list as well as other links.

If you can't find the file, I could send it to you as an attachment in MS

WORD. Just e-mail me off-list.
