    They have meditations that help this sorta 'problem' lolol

    Meditations or medications? :laugh: :laugh:
  • Hilarious!! Yes!! Definitely should. We have 2 tiny kiddos- so if it happens, it better be fast and furious!! Logging calories burned would be the proverbial icing on top!!

    If its that rare of an occasion then maybe it should be logged?
    But - if you're getting it on a regular basis, I'm with whoever said she counts it in her normal activity. :blushing:

    lol me an my bf are oceans apart :sad: when we see each other (only like 3 times a year going by this past year), WATCH OUT :love:
    we get in as much as we can as many times a night & day we can in a 2-3 week period lol ---

    i def think that would add up to some serious munchie cals earned!!!! :laugh:
  • I think it should be added as a cardio....I know i burn lots of calories! It depends on how long and how much you put into it.:bigsmile: :bigsmile:

    Come on guys, really? Count it as fun, count it as exciting.... but its not cardio for 99.99% of the world.

    People are laying, sitting, kneeling, crouching, bending, swinging (:devil: ) whatever.... but its not cardio. We may get really into it, but its not cardio.

    You likely burn more calories washing your car than you do having sex :ohwell:

    no no noI think she meant, actually I'm positive she meant you know what it really doesn't matter hahahaha.

    You know you can just ask her to put on a 100 pound weight vest while you are standing never mind. I get trapped into talking about these things. Back to my meditation. :laugh:
