Did I really burn that many calories?

Ok So I just got my Turbo Jam workout in the mail and loved it! It was fun!
But I have a hard time believing that I really burned 190 calories in the 15 minute Learn and Burn Session.

I also know that a Heart Rate monitor would help. I have the band and the watch to my heart rate monitor here at home... however, I left the monitor itself in a Hotel room, and have not looked at replacing it yet!

    If you want to be accurate definitely get a monitor.

    You can burn 10 calories per min if you are doing vigorous exercise, i have been able to but i am about dead at the end! So it is possible you could have burned that much if it was very intense exercise.
