Or regarding weight loss in general?

It is too funny, sometimes I see the same things over and over.

I'll start...."Nice Burn"

    In response to people who have not lost weight..............."Maybe you gained muscle". or "you're probably gaining muscle and it weighs more than fat". Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!

    1 - a pound of fat, a pound of muscle, a pound of feathers.........THEY ALL WEIGH A POUND.

    2 - plus half the time the poster will state they just started working out. You don't gain muscle in one weeks time.

    lol, sorry that turned into a bit of a rant

    Are you eating enough protein?

    You need to eat more protein

    I can't reach my protein goal

    - Eat clean and the weight will drop off.
    - Calories in vs. calories out.
    - I was on a plateau for 10 years and once I started paleo diet I lost 5lbs instantly.

    I've been on MFP for two whole minutes and I've only lost ten pounds, something is wrong with me.

    "Happy 10/20/279", "Great job!"

    I know you can add a little more congratulatory support than that, especially to friends :p

    Why am I on death row? I think this question must be answered first.

    gonna answer 2 questions on 2 different threads...

    Because somebody said "calories in, calories out" and "everything in moderation" in the same post...

    This is the one I hate:
    1 - a pound of fat, a pound of muscle, a pound of feathers.........THEY ALL WEIGH A POUND.
    Because it's obvious that it means a given volume of muscle weighs more than the same volume of fat, but you act like it means something totally idiotic. I'm sorry that you don't like the way it's phrased but you are being deliberately obtuse.

    Beans, Beans the Musical Fruit
    The more you eat, the more you toot
    The more you toot, the better you feel
    So let's have beans at every meal!

    Uh, thank you!!! I haven't been on MFP for long, but I've always wondered why so many people get their undies in a twist. In my mind, the "by volume" part is always assumed.

    It's the same as when I say that water weighs more than gasoline. Do I really have to tell you I'm referring to a gallon? Sheesh.

    I guess I'm lame for not even knowing what this means.

    Or... if it is cliche, maybe I'm lucky I don't. :smile:

    for the same volume, muscle weighs more than fat.
