    Well my body heat rises and according to Leslie Sanson....that is starting the burning process. Plus when you do a good cardio work out over 30-45 minutes, your body continue to "burn fat" for a few hours after your workout. It's a good feeling actually.
    Actually, your body burns fat 24 hours a day, not just when you work out or a few hours after.

    And unless you have a fever, your core temperature is not rising.

    Don't listen to any of these rude people. Of course it means you're burning fat, and stoking the fire of your metabolism. Way to get fired up for your ellipticizing!

    So, I was doing my elliptical training and I decided to push myself to the full 30 minutes in one go. Around minute 20 my stomach actually started to burn. Not like my actual stomach, but I guess my ab muscles?
    They continued to burn until I stopped at 30 minutes, at which point I felt like I was going to pass out and stopped.

    My question is, was the burning sensation I was feeling actually fat burning? Or is that just an expression?

    Absolutely!! You can smell it burning too. It kind of smells like homemade waffles made with cinnamon and walnuts cooking in grandma's kitchen, it's awesome. Although I overate sushi Sunday night so my Monday morning burn at the gym was unpleasant.

    At least that fish was raw before his metabolic fire started cooking it. The precooked fish that you eat just smells like burned fish when you metaboburn it.

    Your core temperature can rise while working out. You don't have to have a fever for this to happen.

    I would guess that was actually lactic acid buildup in your muscles.

    But it can't hurt right? IMO go get yourself a little pneumonia and hit the gym because that's some serious burn right there. Just make sure to where your HRM so you can log those calories and then eat them all back.

    Not really as it contains grains and dairy and that kinda stuff is why we're fat

    tightness = fat burning. slight pinch= simple carbs burning. a tickle= complex carb burning. radiating burn= muscle burning.

    j/k of course. look- you are burning fat no doubt, but you can't feel it. its an expression.

    You need a hotter metabolic fire to metaboburn grains and dairy. If you chug some Everclear prior to your work out your metabolic fire will be extra stoked and ignite the alcohol which will in turn ethanoboburn the grains and dairy. Problem solved.

    Edit: I misspelled ethanoboburn

    When I go to hell for laughing so hard at this will the burning sensation be fat burning?

    Yes, and I will PROBABLY be seated next to you burning up HELLA fat!

    Except for when you're sleeping. You're whole body pretty much shuts down when you sleep - heart stops beating, respiration stops, etc.

    WHAT??? No this is not correct - gosh you are funny - it is joke right???:ohwell:

    I never joke.

    Sleep shutdown of metabolism is the reason narcoleptics can't lose weight.

    That brings up a good point. The fact that you can light your farts is proof that you can feel your fat burning.

    I read through all 3 pages of this - I can't stop laughing. My giggles are getting more and more frequent and my roommate's giving me the strangest look.

    So...if all this is true, why didn't I smell like graham crackers today at the gym? :( Or s'mores... I'm a little disappointed.

    You did. Just like you can't always tell that your farts stink, you can't always tell what scent is being emitted by your metaboburn. Everyone else got hungry for s'mores while you were working out.

    Hoh man. New favorite game in the gym: eat different foods every day and use my metaboburn to make everyone else hungry around me! After all, the best way to lose weight is for everyone else around me to gain it, right?
