Mind your own business ((RANT))

Hmmm. Do you log calories you burn everytime you cry? I bet they really add up.

Should get a HRM to check...


Maybe typing in all caps lock will show how much you hate people telling you what to do... Even though clearly, you like telling people what to do as well.


lolz.

Man, people on these forums are always bullying... whining... ranting...

And I'm just over here craving a cheeseburger.

Not many people have the money for extravagant three month trips to Bermuda. Trust me on this.

That aside, if the same people are repeating the statement over and over again, something else is up... or you need new people.

!!

I don't see why you can't save some money for a HRM (heart rate monitor?)

I don't see why people think a HRM is essential (or even remotely beneficial in many situations). Interesting data? Sure, but in no way will it ultimately affect your results if you're tracking and adjusting as needed.

I thought this topic was START your own buisiness... *leaves quickly*

Bermuda isn't that great. 3 months would be way too long.

~glowers at Contratian~
It's great here.

Gorgeous
Not much to do.
Expensive
But gorgeous.

Meh. It's okay. My personal preference is places that have a lot of natural flora and fauna. Bermuda is too cultivated for a hermit, like me. I like to be able to get lost.

The amount of butthurt she exudes is just fabulous!

I have a HRM...still type "1 calorie" burned for my exercises most of the time...never saw a need to make an issue of it.

Hold on a second. This thread might give me an opportunity for more data for a theory I have about MFP friends.

OP, how did you add these friends? Did you add them slowly, individually over a period of time based on perceived commonality from their posts or some other indication of compatibility...

...or did you add them all at once in a "Need friends for my journey" type of post?

Maybe you should go drink 8oz of water and go for a walk instead of ranting.

Buy the HRM. You can get a cheap one. :yawn:

Wow glad I am not on your FL, and am sure it will shrink after this thread.

I like where this train of thought is going as well. Very interesting. I'm gonna put on my guessing pants and say it was the latter.

Here is a suggestion.....keep your journals private if you don't want the critique. Oh and secondly, enough with the stereotyping and what comes across as jealousy. I am sure most of us cannot afford trips to Bermuda for three months at a time. Hell, I can't even afford to go ANYWHERE, what I do choose to do with my money is MY business. If I buy new shoes every few months, it's because I WORK MY *kitten* OFF in those shoes and need them as my old ones wear out. If I buy Beachbody workouts, so what, I choose to spend my money on the programs that work for me rather than sink the same amount into other DVDs/programs and gym memberships that I don't find helpful and don't work for me.

Try and focus on the positive. If you have issues with certain people, then simply don't add them or remove them from your friends list.

Different strokes for different folks.

Last time I checked, MFP was for grown-ups.

I'm sorry that you're poor. I highly recommend keeping these friends who remind you that you're poor, as there is no way you can count calories without a HRM and they are just reminding you of that. When you have more money to pay for toys, and can thereby prove that you are serious, let me know. Oh, and don't get me started on old or out of style gym wear. I have no idea how anyone expects to reach their goals looking less than fabulous.

I re-read this thread wearing an HRM and burned 29 calories!
