    Monday 381
    Tuesday 811
    Wednesday 897

    So far total 2089 and feeling good!!! Keeping close track of calories burned really has made me more critical of the calories going in!! One gingerbread latte (even with skim milk) was just a few calories less than my taebo's calorie burn. I was so annoyed that I checked it out after the fact, but I really did not think the latte would be so crazy!! Decision made to have that as a very once in a while treat!

    Doesn't that KILL you??? I analyze everything now by going "is it calorie worthy??" My husband thinks I'm getting a wee-bit obsessed. (still eating too much junk though so I guess not THAT obsessed!).

    Terrible attempt on my part! I'm only at 1500 (which is more than I typically burn in a week. Ive had 3 midterms and have been diagnosed with some medical problem but I am down 1.5 pounds so far this week! I'll take it and try harder next week :)

    I'm taking another hip hop class tomorrow night and am hoping to squeeze in a quick run at lunch. If I can break 3500 before the weekend, then I won't feel so bad about relaxing for a few days :tongue:

    So far my stats are:
    Monday: 1464
    Tuesday: 0
    Wednesday: 363
    Thursday: 120

    Total: 1947

    I'm not feeling bad any more so I'm hitting the dojang for sparring practice in an hour. I did cut down my training a lot for this week out of fear of overtraining and I'm wondering if it's possible to get feverish because of that.. :huh: I felt so weird yesterday but not today..

    Well. It's wall climbing tomorrow and if I go to Aikido class on Sunday, I should barely hit that 3500..
