I'm under calories, I'm working out about 10-15 minutes a day but I'm burning to many calories.

    This doesn't make sense and you need to give a lot more information to get help. Open your diary. What are your stats, goals and calorie intake? The obvious guess is you're eating more than you think and burning less.

    I sincerely doubt you're burning too many calories in 10 minutes

    A ten minute workout that burns a lot of calories? I think we all want a piece of that!

    I spent 10 minutes on the rowing machine this morning, smashing it to get as much distance as I could... and apparently that was 36 calories (half an apple!)

    Yeah that was a waste of time! Download sworkit lite and choose cardio and do a workout post how it goes!

    Am I drunk? Not really understanding what's going on in here, and I'm usually pretty swift.

    On a humorous yet slightly unrelated side note... when I googled, "don't drink and MFP" psulemon's avi showed up on images.

    Are you going to elaborate on your stats, intake, burns, etc., or should we make blind guesses?

    Ps this isn't your chat. It's a public forum. You don't get to dictate the replies.

    10-15 minutes of activity burns like 50 calories. Maybe. Depends on the activity. It's doubtful you are "burning too many calories".

    Also, your calorie goal is a goal, which is meant to be met or surpassed.

    i'm not sure what you could be doing in 10-15 minutes that is burning too many calories.

    what "whole calorie amount" are you eating? what kind of deficit are you doing?

    I've done sworkit workouts. They really aren't that intense? Especially not "burning too much" intense.
