I confess that I'm trying not to get nervous about my doctors appointment later. I feel like I've been doing well. Hoping the scale and such supports that.1

Best of luck @Cerealsensei and remember Muscle weighs more than fat so gym work may not necessarily bring the weight down, the fat will still be melting though.0

1 lb of muscle weighs the same as a 1 lb of fat. Fat takes up more volume than muscle.3 -

I have the same confession although it isn't really a confession. Working out with people who are honest only helps us excel. I rather have someone tell me the cold hard truth than me waste my time, hurt myself or look foolish. The only difference is that I challenge @cabronlobos to keep up with me!!!
I confess I adore all 3 of you, so I'd love to sit on the sidelines and just admire your glistening bodies while you workout because all 3 of you would kick my *kitten* in any workout. 4 -

The phrase is generally used by Personal Trainers and Fitness Instructors I have worked alongside if someone is worrying that they have not lost weight. It is entirely intentional from a psychological perspective, you don't want people just concentrating on WEIGHT loss, instead fat loss and muscle gain are the important figures.
This is why we also use body composition scales.1 -
I am "Native American" Here in Canada we are identified as "First nations" or "Aboriginal" I am comfortable just being called an"Indian"LittleHearseDriver wrote: »I confess I enjoy learning about other cultures funeral rituals. We have a lady who is going back to Mexico to be buried at the end of the week. The family was telling me about the tradition of staying up all night with the dead and having prayers every hour.
Anyway We hold wakes for our departed as well...family and friends spend the night with the departed as a way of keeping them company before they are sent on to their final journey. they play cards, reminisce, hold prayers, open the casket a few times... I have been to a few where the casket is left open all night... there's a "smudge" ceremony... then the trip to the bone yard the next day and a feast afterwards.

Obviously... but you already knew that I knew this... Everyone knows this... as every single thing in existence weighing the same amount as one another, weighs the same amount.
As a result of this I have to confess, I flipping hate when people state the obvious when trying to be clever.

@LittleHearseDriver Apologies for reacting like a total D.
I admit I shouldn't have bitten at your comment, it was unacceptable as for all I know maybe you do believe that I do not know that two things weighing 1lb each weigh the same. Unlikely but I will allow maybe you did believe it.
One of my confessions is that I'm trying to be a better person each day and by doing so one of the things I promised myself was that I wouldn't overreact to things that may initially irk or irritate me... Today this was a fail.
Apologies to you also @Timshel_ for the same reason.
Now that sir is some back pedalling...

I appreciate your apology. I wish you all the best in accomplishing your goals.1

And you in yours.0

Hey Happi, what would be the reason it would be the happiest? Then ask yourself what would be the reason it isn't.
Hopefully the positive outweighs the negative! We cant have a sadmess, we need a Happimess!0 -

Let's talk. Why should it be the happiest week of your life?
What happened that has got you down, my friend?
it probably involves Chocolate Mini Wheats
they're cornering the market on disappointment2 -

I confess I have the same confession as @_dixiana_ ... I'll just watch, admire, and hope I get there some day.1 -
I confess that this F'in bag of chocolate "mini' treat is killing me because I am letting it. I usually make it to around 2p before I grab a couple, but I just downed 4 and it isn't even 9:30a.0
