It is easier to not over eat when I am smiling. Smiling burns calories, laughing too, but especially that run to the bathroom when you combine water drinking and laughing.
I like my depends. This is not an endorsement, BTW. LOL0 -

What equation did you use to figure out how many extra cals your burning ? I'm wondering if we factored in less walking-running-jogging in to it because of discomfort then would it just cancel each other out ?
Good point!
Once I had to wear these cheap uncomfortable shoes ( I was in a wedding and the bride picked out all the dresses and shoes. Some of those shoes are poor quality but marked up high cost because they come from a bridal store ) and I got a terrible blister on my heel and pinky toe. They hurt so badly I didn't go to the gym for two days . every time I wore a shoe, I wanted to yelp! Lol ! Since then, no more cheap shoes and I always carry a bandaid blister pack in my car if I'm wearing brand new shoes, just in case !

Ridiculous thought... How many calories do I burn whipping my head around giving a WTF? look to the guy who just cut me off? Because I do that a lot in Orlando traffic.
My oldest told me that if giving side-eye burned calories, I could have eaten 10k calories a day and never gained an ounce when I had a house full of teenagers. True.0 -

I read here somewhere that we burn more calories in the cold due to our body trying to stay warm.......
but I just got a fancy new treadmill in preparation for our Canadian winter....
.....so I wondered how crazy it would be to crank the AC while I run on the treadmill....
I mean, I have good freaking central air.....I could make this house feel like a walk in refrigerator
I like sleeping in a cold room because I like having heavy blankets over me. My husband protests this. I always tell him that we burn more calories in the cold because we shiver until the sheets warm up.

If this was true I would be 100 lbs since I have chronic pain from Rheumatoid Autoimmune Disease. Right now I must be burning alot of calories since I am flaring in my back and shoulders.0

Too bad the cortisol elevation as a result of the pain, healing process and worrying about how many calories burned will more than offset any additional thermogenesis from the blister itself. Maybe even create a stall.0

Fascinating place this is.0

I wore cute shoes to the amusement park because we weren't planning to do much walking...but then we did six miles and I got a blister.
I began wondering how many extra calories would be burned to heal. It popped while I slept, so that'll be extra, now that it's opened and has to work a little extra hard to fight off invaders.
Every time I feel a zap of pain, I wonder how many calories will be burned healing this thing, lol. Have to be a few!
I'm actually happy about the thing when I console myself with the fact that it's down there burning calories.I wore cute shoes to the amusement park because we weren't planning to do much walking...but then we did six miles and I got a blister.

I want to follow along but not sure I understand. Are you seriously saying healing blisters burns more calories? If so, where did you find this?
Or are you saying the ridiculous things we think of and connect it to weight loss? Maybe staying up late and not sleeping is one of those ridiculous thoughts of things that burn calories.

Any time your body has repair work to do, it's going to use a smidge more energy. With massive burns and blisters, it is a ton. With one little blister, it's so small that I honestly don't know how much it would be. Nobody has to calculate how many extra calories they need for that, lol.I wore cute shoes to the amusement park because we weren't planning to do much walking...but then we did six miles and I got a blister.

It's not something I found online. It's just something I know.
My point is just how silly weight loss thoughts run through my mind. Get a blister, think, "Ooh, extra calories being used!" It's kind of ridiculous, how calories even crossed my mind.

Ok yea that's how I am when I'm trying to lose. Any little thing in like ooh that's a calorie burned. It can get borderline obsessive.0 -
I wonder how many calories we intake each day simply by breathing air that has dust particles - largely comprising human skin - floating around in it. I bet that would offset a blister. And when you exercise, you breathe more heavily, so you take in MORE dust and therefore more calories.0

Not to mention that when you smell food, that's actually particles of the food suspended in the air. So you're taking in calories from that food when you smell it. Between that and the cortisol, you're dead.0 -
When i would get thoughts like that i would make an appointment with a therapist
