as the title says.. ive been painting and doing housework all morning but not sure how many calories it would burn? any ideas? i certainly worked up a sweat!!

there are plenty of calorie calculators on line thru a search
yes everything adds up, washing dishes , swinging a hammer , ping pong, not sure how many calories are burnt looking up calories burnt , but is worth a try

There is an entry for housework in the Mfp database. I would certainly count painting because I always end up sweaty when I paint. Not sure if it is in the database though, you might have to make your own entry, or count it as something there.
