    Because by volume it does!

    Yep. Which should be obviously implied by the statement "muscle weighs more than fat".
    not everyone understands to compare two things you must have a variable that is the same. It's unfortunate but people tend not to want to think things through.

    The relative size of 1lb of muscle is much smaller than the relative size of 1lb of fat.

    Get over it.

    Everything weighs the same as everything else. Happy now?

    Are you saying that I weigh the same as an elephant? Are you calling me fat.....again? :sad:

    But you also weigh the same as a supermodel ... :D

    Exactly, this. If anything, Thomas, you should be offended because I called you skinny.

    Muscle weighs more than fat?! 1 lb = 1 lb. 1 lb of feathers weighs the same as 1 lb of leather which weighs the same as 1 lb of rocks. Geez. *Rant over*

    Yeah... this one gets me too. But, I digress.

    Pound cake. Which apparently weighs the same as angel food cake. Or something...

    ... Fat is fluffy and squishy.

    We used to have a cat named Fluffy ... but after he ran out in the street we renamed him Squishy.
