    Since I've lost 85 pounds, everything I say is right.
    Since I've lost 5 pounds, everything I say is right.
    Since I did all these things and didn't lose a pound, I can tell you that everything I've tried is bogus.
    I am right. You are wrong. And dangerous. And not taking this seriously. And are a horrible, horrible person.

    Thank you, and goodnight.

    I have learnt that when we pee we lose white stuff, this is the fat melting away!!
    Also Celery is negative food, I could eat this all day, every day and reach my goal in a WEEK (as long as I don't go over 1200 cals!)
    Also, people don't want the truth, they want super sweet sugary lies to replace the super sweet sugary food they used to shovel into themselves.
    Also, many people find me offensive!!! :grumble: :laugh:

    Take what folks say with a grain of salt.

    If I don't like a topic or what some one said, just move on to on another thread.

    Arguing on the internet is like .... well you know the rest and I don't want to offend people with the R word.

    That whatever works for me, must work for everyone else. If it doesn't, it means other people are stupid.

    People cannot read inflection on a thread ... no matter how many times they have read similar comments by the same person.

    *kitten* is a healthy part of your exercise routine.

    Should I log that and for how many calories??

    I think you have to wear a heart monitor to get an accurate reading. Not just a HRM, but a fancy 1 with the chest strao and everything - you know treat yourself nice, look hot in the mirror... maybe I've said too much.


    I just died laughing. Can you imagine someone wearing a hrm during sex and checking the calorie count in between positions LOL :laugh:

    That a ream of paper weighs 10lbs, and a 10lb dumbell is heavier than a 10lb bag of feathers. And a discussion about this will be longer than 20 pages. THAT was a fun one!

    LMAO!

    That reading everything about fitness, nutrition, excercise and weight loss on the internet makes you an expert on all of those subjects.

    This thread was very educational to a newcomer. I learned a lot from it. You see how I spelled a lot correctly? Learned that here. :laugh:

    This is a direct quote, found on the forum today. :laugh:
    Well, it has been explained to me, by a doctor, that belly fat comes from carbs and butt fat comes from fat. To lose the belly fat, you decrease your carbohydrates and eat more lean protein, to lose the butt fat, you eat "good" carbs and cut back fat,.
    Someone forgot to tell my belly that the bananas and potatoes I eat were supposed to prevent it from shrinking. Oops. I guess it missed the memo.

    Seriously, I've learned that while nobody agrees on much (kinda like the non-digital world) most people will at least write some words of encouragement... Even if I don't learn much else, that's nice to see.

    There are a lot of odd threads, true, but sometimes you stumble on a good one where one person is on the verge of giving up and a lot of other members jump in to encourage them.

    You burn over 3000 calories in 6 hrs of shopping, because you are not only walking the whole entire time, you are also carrying packages

    If you are a man you MUST eat 1800 calories per day (1200 for women) or you will plateau.

    If you post something that's written by somebody else, it's perfectly fine to claim that you wrote it yourself.

    If you post something, it's got to be important to everyone, so make sure you bump your own threads at least once a day.

    You can pretty much take these to the bank because I saw them in a post from someone who's very good friends works with a doctor

    If you're eating your period just stop right now -- you are using MFP alllllll wrong :noway:

    This made me queasy.

    I think I threw up in my mouth, just alittle. gag. Uncalled for.

    I wrote that completely out of sarcasm and silliness. Didn't intend to be offensive. My apologies.

    Agreed. He is just a rich guy with a bad attitude and a cape. Which makes him the coolest crime fighter ever!!

    I'm sure it would depend on the intensity... and knowing MFP there would be a drop down for intensity, type of device used, right handed or left... LOL!!

    Uh oh. I don't think Bradley Cooper is hot.
    There's probably something wrong with me. I bet it's because I eat carbs and do strength training. It's made me stupid and bulky, which is something I've learned on the forums.

    Oh yes, and if they TYPE that a doctor told them it automatically becomes fact, and we all become stupid for ever doubting the poster :laugh:
