<div>Can someone explain how the phrase, "portion control", as defined here, is either "entirely original to Conservapedia, while others were further developed in an original manner by one or more editors here"? Portion control is a central tenet of many weight loss plans. In fact, googling the phrase comes up with an about.com article on how to implement portion control, a slide show from the Mayo Clinic on portion sizes, a guide from the Dept. of Health and Human Services on portion control, and those are just the first three. While "portion control" is definitely an important dieting concept, I'm not sure it qualifies as a Conservapedia term. --[[User:Jareddr|Jareddr]] 10:03, 7 September 2008 (EDT)<br />

: You don't link to anything specific, and I doubt the other sources say what we do. But I'm willing to look into it if you really think something else says the same thing.--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 10:08, 7 September 2008 (EDT)<br />

:: I thought the overwhelming number of results would've shown that portion control is a well-established term. But here are the specific links: [http://weightloss.about.com/od/eatsmart/tp/aa030405a.htm about.com article], [http://weightloss.about.com/cs/moretips/a/aa062700a.htm and another], [http://weightloss.about.com/od/eatsmart/a/aa062804a.htm "Increased Portion Size Leads to Increased Energy Intake in a Restaurant Meal"], [http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/portion-control/NU00267 Mayo Clinic slideshow], [http://www.smallstep.gov/portion_control.html HHS], [http://www.diabetes.org/for-parents-and-kids/diabetes-care/portion-control.jsp Busting Food Myths from American Diabetes Association], [http://www.cdc.gov/nccdphp/dnpa/healthyweight/healthy_eating/portion_size.htm CDC "How to Avoid Portion Size Pitfalls]. If you need more, let me know and I'll continue down the list of Google results. --[[User:Jareddr|Jareddr]] 10:16, 7 September 2008 (EDT)<br />

== 2 PD Omer approach ==<br />
<br />
I'd like to point out that ''Portion control'' is very similar to the approach by famed Christian and Conservative Cardiologist Andrew B. Chung, MD/PhD. As they say, ''great minds think alike!''<br />
In my opinion, Dr. Chung would be an awesome addition to the group of Conservative experts in Conservapedia, as he seems to share our values. [http://www.heartmdphd.com/wtloss.asp Here] is his page on weight loss. --[[User:LandonD|LandonD]] 11:34, 7 September 2008 (EDT)</div>LandonD
