    I have people on my friends that log everything!! I'm surprised the don't log walking to the loo!! Then eat the cals back or most of them and wonder why they are stuck in a plateau, I agree with walking being too much cals unless I get in to a sweat I don't log it! I try to walk to my sons school 3miles away on an afternoon, majority of it is up hill and I push my 2yr old in a pram so I log that but I don't log the 20mins of walking I do taking to school on buses on a morning as I walk slow!! People log walking round a supermarket for 2 hrs as exercise!! Why!!! It's not as if you're rushing around walking as fast as you can! Ur walking slowly loOking at all the food and probably spend more time stood looking at food instead of walking!! I personally log cleaning because I clean all my floors by hand and do so on a daily basis but I only log around 20-40 mind of light cleaning and I do not eat those cals back !! To me It just looks as tho people cheat extra cals for them self so they don't have to earn them Properly. People also just take MFP word on what they should be eating as correct for example: MFP says you should eat 105 carbs a day and 40g of fat you log 2hrs of walking round a supermarket and 1hr of cleaning so MFP ups your carbs to 210g and fat 75g and the people eat them or close to it but are you honestly burning it off ARE YOU HELL and people congratulate them for it????? I'm not purfect and I don't know 'everything' and people would have a tight winge about my diary being unhealthy (especially this week! Quite a few binges) but it really annoys the hell our of me......rant over :0)


    WELL SAID.

    Jogging 20 minutes to work each day isn't an exercise, right?? I do that everyday, therefore everyone must, so it doesn't count, right??

    It's like a lot of things - I wouldn't do it personally but if it works for someone else, who am I to question it? I tried counting the calories burned worrying about questionable things other people do but it just didn't add up to enough to be worthwhile.
  • this is funny lol.

    burnt '560 calories preparing food'........i usually have to run for 1.5 hrs for that. no fair.
