Oh just shut up like we haven't had this thread 100 times before. Are you being supportive! No. Are you teaching us something new? No.

Sort it out people this is a support forum.

I think you know what people mean when they say it.

I don't see what's wrong about saying "muscle weighs more than fat" ... if you take a blob of fat and then take a blob of muscle of the same size, the muscle will weigh more. I wish people would stop nit picking everything that is said on here.

:drinker: Took the words right out of my mouth.

By this logic there is no difference between a feather and a pile of poop.

Yet 1 mb of RAM weighs more than 1MB on a flash drive... hmmmm I'm gonna start counting food by bites (bytes, get it? Nerd joke... Shut up I'm tired...and I probably don't like you anyway).

Sounds good and I agree. But my endocronologist told me i was obese due to height/weight ratio. at 5'3 and 172 i am classified as obese. When I told her that i was in a size 9/10 and did insanity 6 days a week and muscle weighs more that fat she laughed and told me to lose 30 pounds.

I lost the doctor!!!

Good choice!

You realized that people mean "by volume" when they say that right?

.

See? I weigh the same as I did when I was fat but now my volume is smaller.

Why does it look like the sides of your mouth are getting heavier as you're looking better? Smile!

Good question, certainly the packaging is improved, what happened to the smile?

A pound of muscles equals a pound of fat.

A pound of this weighs the same as a pound of that. Interesting theory you have there.

BeeElMarvin

A pound of muscles equals a pound of fat. However, muscle is denser than fat; therefore a pound of muscle takes up less space than a pound of fat.

Have a blessed day!

You are totally amazing! Thanks for that info. You know, it's great when someone is able to bring up a brand new subject that has never been BEATEN THE FRUCK TO DEATH on the forums! Have a blessed day yourself cuz you fugged mine up pretty good...

So the thread title wasn't a clue? If my day were as easily ruined by MFP forum threads as yours apparently is, I would be more careful which ones I clicked.

I can't smile and flex at the same time! I wasn't flexing for the first 2.

So the 5lbs I gained this week weren't muscle?! UGH. I just started 2 weeks ago and haven't lost 20lbs like everyone else.

Had to look that one up...yeah, I guess you'd lose weight, but yuck and unsatisfying. You definitely made a good choice!
