    Hey, people actually log cooking and cleaning as exercise. Since they cooked and clean while gaining weight., I highly doubt it helps them loose weight.

    Has anyone seen anyone log "me time *bow chicka wow wow*"

    I have seen some interesting choices, but not yet that.

    From a few years ago, Guitar Hero. That could have been legit. At least standing around playing real guitar in a rock band could count as a workout.

    I've seen guys drip sweat playing Guitar Hero, so that one may actually be legit.

    I find it helps if I game fasted. Targets the fat molecules directly to be used for brain fuel. 2.25 x the original burn since Fat calories are 9cal/gram vs 4cal/gram for carbs and you're using only fat.
    You're making me think too hard but I appreciate the extra calorie burn, thanks again Bean. Gotta log, brb...
    Hmm... since I'm a math genius
    I hate you... ;)

    That's crazy too... If you listen to women complain about their husbands in bed the men shouldn't be logging anything.

    Truer words were never spoken. Rock Star Metallica with One was just sick. Actually all of their songs are so damn long my hand was killing me. Just thinking about it making me burn calories. Damn, gotta log again brb...

    I think the sense of humor was implied; if not I implied it. :laugh:

    I know. I know. How about if I played Angry Birds AT THE GYM, huh?! Better yet, if I played it while sitting on my *kitten* on a machine! That's gotta burn loads of calories cuz so many do it.

    Hmm... since I'm a math genius, I guess I should do both in the morning under fasted conditions. Definitely Angry Birds at night would sabotage my metabolism causing me to store fat - unless I poop, of course.

    If you're the maths genius maybe you can help me with some as I'm struggling

    I logged all my activites for the week and included washing up and playing angry birds. Total 600,000 calories

    I never eat back my exercise calories so forgot to eat for the week

    A pound is equal to 3,500 calories which meant I lost 170lbs in a week and I only weighed 160 before
    So I now weigh less than zero??? That can't be right surely?

    If I cease to weigh anything at all can I sneak into ladies changing rooms without them seeing me?

    I dance a funny little jig every time someone on MFP writes 'loose' instead of 'lose'
    I log it as Zumba
