lets ban light house cleaning from mfp

DavetheHYNIC

I would like to start a movement to eliminate the laziness of some of our fellow mfp pals. Lets help them help themselves!!!

good luck on that. Just curious, why do you care what others log? Does it affect you in some way?

_Christine_

What?! I can log that?! AWESOME!!

Burning calories is burning calories. For some, it's very helpful and motivational to be able to see that even everyday activities like light housecleaning are still better than sitting around doing nothing. Knowledge is power.

How many calories can I burn for being judgmental?

BADGIRLstl

I stand in agreement with you!

BADGIRLstl

I've even seen "taking a shower" as calories burned! Really?

_Timmeh_

We should ban cheeze burgers also, cause people should not eat those.

let's ban judging other peoples choices under the guise of "helping" them.

ban banning? Gasp - the internet would go quiet.

You can not judge what people consider exercise. Each of us is at our own personal stage. If light housekeeping is banned then slow walking should be as well, then what, when YOU get to YOUR next level are you going to ban the next thing??? Instead of calling others lazy, maybe you should encourage.

Have you ever tried to climb the steps of a lighthouse? Not even thinking about mopping each step as you go and scrubbing the walls! Anyone who has committed to lighthouse cleaning has undertaken a serious task and you should be ashamed for making...er...light of their work!

Wow, I bet it's fun to be YOUR friend. WTF do you care what someone else considers exercise? Frankly I NEVER clean my own house, I pay someone to do it. So those rare times when I do a deep clean I have worn my HRM and I do break a sweat. Of course I'm a fat@ss so what's strenuous and burns calories for me probably wouldn't do a thing for someone as fit and awesome as yourself.

Hey Bro..you forgot to put this on.

If you knew how thoroughly I scrubbed, you wouldn't judge me for that.

What if you're not alone in the shower but didn't want to post what you were actually doing in there?

You all know being smug is the best form of exercise. Cut the OP a break!

I would think that "light house cleaning" would be a motivator for someone who is sedentary and hates house cleaning and exercise to get up and kill two birds with one stone. I live on the 3rd story of a building with no elevator and the laundry room is on the 1st floor. I sometimes count going up and down those stairs as exercise when I need a bit of motivation. I didn't get to be super obese by being active and making good food choices.

Thank you all for making me laugh this morning!
