haha I think that's pretty much a given, except for people who don't actually understand what a calorie is. But, there are always people still learning (probably not on this board though...)

right, those of you/us who live on here know a good amount about nutrition, so its surprising how many ppl don't know this. Also the same reason why infomercials make millions of dollars, and ppl think that they can spot reduce. or that u can look like Arnold with a bowflex and hip hop abs...
