    "Lift heavy"

    why?

    It's probably not the safest advice to give an unfit person who's never lifted, since it can lead to overtraining or injuries. I'm guilty of using the phrase, but i'm trying to replace it with "follow a good program". Good programs explain the proper progression from light to heavy.

    that's exactly what I've been doing lately, encouraging people to choose and follow a weights program instead of just bouncing into the weight room without aim or guidance to pick up the heaviest thing they see.

    Cleanse, diet, 21 day challenge, low carb....smh. Just eat REAL unprocesseed, uncanned food. Eat as close to the earth as possible....

    What is real food? Do people eat fake foods? Like the wax fruit sitting out for decoration? Does unprocessed mean I can't have milk (it's been processed)? What about bread? And what's wrong with canned food? Most veggies I eat have been canned. Does that add calories?

    "Eating close to the earth" makes me think of someone hunkered down in a garden eating a carrot with the dirt still on it.

    the zombies in Sims 3 do that, it's immediately what popped into my head.

    Spew. Please stop saying spew, unless you just opened your soft drink and it is, in fact, spewing.

    Real women have.... (this needs to go.) We're all real women.

    I 100% agree with this. It's not my fault I have a small stature and God didn't see fit to give me voluptuous curves. Quick making me feel like I'm not good enough to be called a "real woman" because of it.

    Oh and also, gluten free. HATE IT. I totally get it if you're doing it for medical reasons, celiac disease, but because it's trendy or whatever, get over yourself.

    "Do or do not. There is no try."

    I love me some Yoda, but trying is doing. I'm on the treadmill trying to do a 5K. I can't do a 5K on the spot. I get what people are trying to say, it's just so so tired.

    ... it means don't half *kitten* it.
    ...

    *sigh*

    I said I get why people say it; it's still over quoted and I'm tired of it.

    Nonsense. A cubic inch of muscle occupies the same space as a cubic inch of fat!

    I can't believe someone thinks an inch isn't an inch.

    (Sorry, couldn't resist. I'll ban my own comments now.)

    It depends on how you use it.

    Sorry, just caught my spelling error. Correct spelling, wrong word.

    This thread is making me crack up. If we had it our way, there'd be nothing left in the boards except the chit chat threads :D

    Nah, those are on my list too.

    "blah blah blah the person above you"

    Can we ban threads that have 'the person above you' in them?

    I'm for anything that keeps people logging and thinking about their diet. if they like the little game forums and it helps them focus on MFP I'm for it.

    "Drinking beer made me fat!" Ergo I must give up drinking beer in order to "loose" weight.

    "Who's with me!?"

    Hi all :-) I'm a total newbie- literally just joined. So I'm a just turned 30 year old female from Ireland and I'm about 3 stone overweight and to be honest uncomfortable at this stage. I've decided to make 2015 my reinvention year and to give me that extra incentive I'm gonna blog my way through it. I'd love to make some similar minded friends on this to share experiences etc. I've also just set up a blog https://awordygirly.wordpress.com/ which is gonna be all about my journey too :-) Looking forward to chatting and sharing :-)
