    Saying you've really been trying doing everything you should, eating right and exercising everyday and it's not working when you've been doing this for 3 weeks and you eat 1200cal...bonus points for arguing with the peeps who respond and try to help

    Oh yeah! This is the one!

    I am too new to weigh in on this topic with any credibility but I have found this thread to be highly entertaining. SO I feel the need to say thanks for the laughs. :happy:

    I don't know what "Blue Bell" ice cream is (is it only in the states?) but I like Haagen Dazs :)

    Another few for me are:
    -cutting carbs to some arbitrary number [for no medical reason]
    -"one pound of fat weighs more than one pound of muscle" or anything about gaining muscles while cutting/instead of losing fat I'm gaining muscle
    -I just ate and then weighed myself, why did I gain x pounds?

    - claim you are gaining on 800 calories per day

    - anything that has the word "keytones" in it

    - anything with the word "cleanse" or "detox" in it

    - anything claiming DVD cardio/circuit workouts to be "strength training"

    - females "bulking" on 1200 or less calories per day because they are lifting more than their purse weighs

    - "I'm pretty sure I'm gaining muscle"

    - OMG I weighed myself after eating a bunch of food and **** all day and I weigh more than I did this morning...

    - Sugar is the devil

    - Fat is the devil

    - most recently, protein is the devil...I guess we're just all ****ed in the *kitten* then...

    - I'm poor and can't even afford dried beans

    - I'm an adult and don't like veg or fruit or anything that's not fast food but I want to be healthy...HALP!

    - I thought this place was for "support"

    - I need to lose 40 Lbs by my upcoming vacation in two weeks...

    - Jumpstarting the metabolism

    - Jumpstarting weight-loss

    - Jumpstarting anything but your car

    - Tablespoons of coconut oil in your coffee is magic

    - Lemon in your water is some kind of magical weight loss tonic

    - I just can't possibly eat more than 500 calories per day even though I'm a big fat mother ****er....

    - I'm doing everything right....except I don't log and don't use measuring cups or a food scale...and I only have like 2 sodas per day as a "treat"...but I'm pretty sure I'm only eating like 100 calories per day and not losing

    - exercise calories???? and no, I didn't bother reading all of the stickies and what not before diving in head first here. I have no idea how to use this tool and now I'm going to complain about it.

    I could go on but my dinner is almost ready....

    1+ :laugh:

    That's what I was thinking. And what is "junk food" anyway?

    My mom made squash, tasted like sadness and regret. I'd consider that junk food.

    Ok anything that tastes like "sadness and regret" is junk food. I tried making butternut squash soup the other day and it tasted like rotten baby food... Instantly regretted ingesting it.

    Using bull**** "cardio excercises" to burn calories.

    EX: (insert name here) just burned 900 calories doing 15 minutes of cleaning (general)

    Like seriously? You're only kidding yourself.

    here are 5 off the top of my head...

    - use the word "detox" non-ironically
    - start an "OMG everyone here is so mean and rude" thread
    - post a cauliflower-replacement recipe non-ironically
    - cite The China Study as scientific proof
    - claim that Ben & Jerry's is better ice cream than Blue Bell.

    :bigsmile:

    Please cite your sources....coz you are wrong.....and mean...

    Complaining you are not losing weight and are WAY under your calorie goal. Because all you eat is doritos.

    Yup.
    ... unless you're a professional chef or hairdresser, "food preparation" and "styling hair" are not going burn significant calories.

    Bananas make you have belly fat!

    :tongue:

    Uh-huh, haven't we all seen those stupid "Avoid these 3 foods to lose weight" ads with a nasty brown banana and an unflatteringly portrayed belly in them? :laugh: I feel sorry for people who actually believe that!!!

    And, keep insisting that you have to exercise X amount and you get to eat X amount of calories. . . leaving you with 200 net calories eaten for the day. :noway: !!!!!????? WTF???

    Disagreeing with squats being the ultimate exercise
    Thinking any diet pill will be an effective method in weight loss
    Claiming that anything other than counting calories is a sufficient way to lose weight
    That you can put on muscle in a deficit
    (All the stated above came straight out of my MFP cult followers 101 handbook)

    I'm under 150 but still considered overweight...

    Another is anyone who thinks calories are irrelevant to weight lose.

    You could be overweight, but you are not TOO fat. And let me explain myself. For those at such weight, they are screaming out loud that they are TOO FATTT. I mean, it is not necessary to do it on DAILY BASIS lol
