  • Doesn't surprise me. If this happened on MFP, the only thing different would be that the first response would be for someone to tell her she needing to buy an HRM to "if you really want to be accurate--I LOVE mine!!!!!!!".

    Instead of assuming she was serious, I would have assumed she was just joking.

    That said, there are women's health magazines that claim you can burn 100 calories washing dishes! And 50 calories doing this and this many calories doing that. People who are uninformed might actually think doing those things counts as exercise and maybe if your life has been COMPLETELY sedentary that WOULD count as exercise.

    Anyway. I say the mother was joking.

    I've actually deleted people for that before. Along with brushing their hair, showering, and things of that sort. Unless you're doing some serious squats or something while brushing your teeth, I don't want to see that posted. Haha. You're only cheating yourself.

    It might have been a euphemism for something altogether more energetic :wink:

    Alternatively, the mother might have been trying to stick to 1200. When I was I logged food preparation, washing up, anything to keep me slightly less hungry, and I still lost over 2lb a week. If a seriously overweight woman was attempting the same I can see why she might log EVERYTHING!
