If you want to do twelve step but find FA too rigid, you can also check out OA (Overeater's Anonymous). It doesn't have a set food plan; you come up with your own with the help of your sponsor and a nutritionist.

This is an OS-level thing where apps can act more "iOS-like" by saving and restoring their state when they're closed/opened. I agree, it's annoying. There might be a way to turn it off but in the meantime you can pr

It's really nothing - just a different fare code. Gate agents and cabin crew can already tell when someone is a non-rev (e.g. an employee using flight benefits), so looping them in on the backend is just a quick schedule lookup and a c
