Hi. I'm starting anew again. On my old account, my friends would burn 1,800,435 calories a day doing light housework and moderate paced walking of the dog. I was wondering, does typing my lies, oops, I mean food entries into my diary count as a good burn? How about just thinking about it? When I'm constipated, I break a sweat, what does that count for? Nightmares and night sweats? Any one know?

    So, I just came back to see if anyone was interested in my topic discussion. I figure I burned 90 calories in effort to get back to here, another 50 to type this out, and another 50 in just being emotionally drained that no one is interested. WHY AREN'T I LOSING WEIGHT WITH THESE WORKOUTS?

    This is exhausting trying to get attention, what a burn! Maybe I should start a thread about no freaks or pervs contacting me?

    I'm assuming someone out there is working up a good sweat too hitting that 'report post' button. Yeah, good job!

    Probably because you've been outdone by the 100 day juice fast thread. That one is way more ridiculous....

    Make sure you "eat back" all those calories, by my conservative estimate you burned 6,000 calories in the last 10 minutes. If you don't eat them back, your metabolism will slow down, and you'll start pulling fat particles out of the air through your skin, and you'll gain weight! The only way to lose weight is to eat a lot of calories!

    But now, I'm going to head back to the juicing thread to see what magic this blonde lady has to invoke such raw emotion in so many people! I want to be a My Fitness Pal SUPERSTAR <3

    ahhahahaha love the post. Well if all your thinking burns calories then all the times I think about getting off my tush to go for a run means I'm in great shape. Well lets be honest my brain is in great shape from all the thinking of doing things.
