    Maybe Kayla Silverfox touched her and told her to walk until her feet bled and then walk some more...

    If someone's logging really bothered you, I'd say just delete them. Sometimes I see ridiculous things in my feed, but I just scroll past them basically without any second thought considering it's just the net and not putting a damper on my day

    I've been adding friends, and there is one girl on my thing that has to be lying about her calories burned.

    This was one of her things:
    burned 4112 calories doing 1430 minutes of cardio exercises, including "Walking, 3.5 mph, brisk pace"

    1430 is almost 24 hours, and that just isn't possible, I'm sorry.
    Another one was for 550 minutes which is almost 9 hours, which could be possible but it's very unlikely.

    Why would you lie about your amount of calories burned it just doesn't make sense to me.

    I don't like when people respond to posts the way that you have, but I will admit this one made me laugh. Shame on me. You got me.

    Instead of going on the msg boards to complain, why not ask her about it -- in a friendly way, because you're curious. It could be that she's logging her entire calorie burn for the day.

    I can understand...first i would gently ask how/why she /he logs the way they are...I take being a a MFPal seriously...if one of my friends is complaining about not reaching a goal and I can see a possible reason why, I'm going to mention it, if I see unhealthy trends, I'm going to say something. I would expect my pals to do the same. That being said I've lost a few friends along the way and I've defriended a few too.

    I think the thing is, people could be lying on here about anything. They could be eating foods they are not logging, they could be even lying about weight loss. There is no real way to know unless you get to know them. But I think if you are friends with them for long enough, you get a feel for what kind of a person they are. I have not deleted any friends because they lied, but I have deleted some that were very negative, or quit logging in, etc. So I think you just have to do what you need to do for you, and do your best to surround yourself with those who are helping you, and who you can help. You can't know for sure what they are doing.

    My mother.. when she's angry with someone goes and tells everyone else about how she's angry with "so&so" and what about so eventually it gets back to the person that she is angry with and why.. and then EVERYONE knows about it. She's too old to change her ways but I suggest you try seeking a therapist to help you deal with your inability to confront people in an adult manner when they upset you.. you know - put on some big girl panties.

    I didn't read through the pages of non-replys so if this has been stated already, I apologize. Maybe the person is in a career that requires her to walk all day? Like a waitress, if she has her settings on sedentary and wears a monitor that links, then that could account for the "9 hours" of straight cardio exercise. Quite honestly, I would just ask.."how do you get 9 hours of exercise in".

    good Luck.
