    Who cares. I want to see more muscle and less fat on me.

    Period.

    That is how I feel too.

    It is about as controversial as saying carrots are orange.

    Carrots can be purple too.

    However, 1 lb of muscle does not weight more than 1 lb of fat.

    Well yeah but that statement is a tautology. One pound of anything will always weigh the same as one pound of anything else.

    False. If the fat is weighed on the moon or in outer space it will weigh nothing. However, one could say 1 kg of muscle will always have the same mass as 1 kg of fat.

    To everyone saying the OP is beating a dead horse and that they don't care. I can see why you would lose interest in this topic if you had seen it come up a lot. I have only seen this topic discussed a couple times so I didn't think it was a big deal. The thing that gets me is that if this topic has become trite to you why would you post at all?

    I see posts that I find uninteresting all the time. It could be that it is discussed too often or that it is simply a vacuous topic to begin with or both. The thing is I just don't post in those topics.

    I am not saying you have to even stop. This is an internet forum and all posts should be welcome. One reason I find this question interesting is because not only are people posting that this topic is a dead horse but we also have those same people checking up on the conversation and posting more responses. You must be getting something out of it I just don't understand what. Is it an effort to shame others in to discontinuing the conversation?

    It's just meant to be fun. The gifs are for entertainment.

    Do you only ever say something in conversation that adds something valuable? You never say "I find this topic boring" or "don't you think talking about this is beating the dead horse"?

    As a rule I try to make my posts progress the conversation in some sort of measurable way. Perhaps I have said something like that but I certainly can't remember doing it off the top of my head. I do enjoy gifs so I guess I am not really bothered by it that much. I just found it a question worth asking.

    Maybe measurable by a pound of fat, but that wouldn't progress the conversation by as much as a pound of muscle

    Nope, measurable with a ruler. I already clarified that in the post above yours.
