    They have a HRM on you while you're under - it doesn't show calories burned, though.

    If you're completely under, they'll have you paralyzed and have you vented (breathing for you) so you'd probably burn less calores than when you sleep.

    If you dream while under, do you burn more calories?
    Depends on if it was a wet dream or not.

    Are you normally unconscious during sex?

    Not normally, but certainly there's been a time or two that, were it not for photographic evidence, I would never have remembered.

    Impossible to calculate unless you are wearing a HRM.

    If they wouldn't let them wear the fitbit..how would they wear the HRM?

    He just needs to get more creative in where he hides it.

    What they don't know can't hurt them...or him...or something.
    They insist on using their own, they think it's better just because it has that big screen and can make a printout. I'll have to request a printout then I can count the number of heartbeats manually.

    But hiding an HRM? Don't be ridiculous.

    You can't even hide your own butt in that gown they give you.

    I seriously want to know if I burned any calories while I got my colonoscopy today. Good grief, I want to know if I burned calories dancing or walking or anything else. If I go to the trouble of getting a colonoscopy I'd like to know I get some calories burned for it. Not such a crazy question unless you have never had to go through it.

    Awesome question. Well your calories burned under anesthesia can be variable. If you wake up in the middle of it, you're going to burn a lot more than if you don't wake up. And the HRM is the only way to know because the doctors will erase your memory of waking up.

    I'm sorry but you all have it wrong. Since you can't eat or drink anything after midnight the day of the surgery, your body will go into starvation mode and you'll gain like 15 pounds.

    duh. :drinker:

    Using this same train of thought, are we saying a vasectomy is like a hand job, there for can be counted as a calorie burn? I think not!

    And if you do not wake up eventually I bet you burn alot less calories
