Why do you people hate science?

That had me laughing.

You're having sex for work?

Sex doesn't count when it's just for fun!

Yep that's my job - when it is just for fun it isn't nearly as strenuous!

I log everything, except for black coffee.

I log my 2 -4 daily black coffees (no sweetener). Minimal calories but still has 1 or 2 calories. That and 8+ cups of water a day may be negative calories because of running to the bathroom so often ; - )

Since mango was on the "list" a mango has aprox 130 calories say you eat 10 of them (yes that's a lot of mangos) do you think that those 1130 calories just go poof? You would log that correct? If you would log it if you ate 10 you should log it if you ate 1 or a half etc.

To me it would be a very slippery slope to decide that some calories don't really count.

I tried to cut a mango once. I am certain I burned at least 130 calories in stomping around the kitchen, angrily cursing at it and eventually just brutally stabbing it over and over.

I also did not know one could eat a dandilion. My food budget will dimish greatly this summer

Loved this post. Thanks for the laugh. Now off this site and back to drafting Wills and Trusts.

I distinctly remember my granny making fried dandelions (possibly just the greens though?). I don't, however, remeber eating them because it's smelled like bitter & oil, and that doesn't sound good. She loved it though. I wonder what exactly she was doing... I suppose it's for the best, frying a flower is probably conterproductive to.. everything. Taste. Calories. Crunch. Candying it however... nom.
