After being sick for a week, I was finally able to exercise today.
I burnt 480 cal doing 50 minutes on the elliptical. I also burnt another 200cal walking to the grocery store and back to pick up fish for tomorrow.

It feels so good to get those extra calories!!! I was going over by a couple of hundred everday cuz I was so hungry!! :grumble:

I just want it to be warm out so I can stop being sick all the time!!! :sick:

    Ok..so I technically haven't done anything yet, except teach. But, I am planning on walking at 4.0 on the treadmill for 20 mins and do a workout video for a half hour.

    There is finally sunshine and some warmth here in freezing cold Wisconsin, so it always makes me more ambitious. Gotta take advantage of it when I can, we're supposed to get 6 inches more of snow tonight!! Boo to that one!
