    I have a mini exercise bike under my desk at work and it does count. All movement counts. I try to get an hour in on mine when I am in the office.

    @volgirl1322 - I love my desk cycle <3 Its really great as I can cycle away while sitting at my desk :)

    @Brendalea69 - Yes, I agree :) I found a Online Calorie Calculator on the MagneTrainer website. Its a calculator for a mini desk exercise bike and I am pretty happy that if I rode 1 hour at a speed of 15 mph (which is pretty slow) for 60 mins, I actually burn roughly 147 calories. Not bad at all :)

    @LadyBlanks - Totally agree :) I too try to get in a minimum of 1 hour per day :) If you would like to how much calories you burn, please visit the MagneTrainer website and hop onto their online calorie calculator...I burn around 147 calories per hour which is better than just sitting on my desk doing nothing. :+1:

    Good afternoon OMADers <3

    I am so over this...I ensure that I don't consume too much and I exercise but no matter what I do...the scale just won't move :confused: I will just keep trying till my body gives up fighting with me.

    Hope things are better for you guys :)

    Good evening OMADers <3

    It suppose to be Spring time here but it was so cold today that some parts of my State snowed. A town which is 45 mins drive away had snow and everyone was building a snowman and making snow angels there. Too bad that we couldn't drive there as we were working. Oh well..

    I weighed this morning and the scale gave me a miserable 0.5lb loss. Imagine that... I only OMAD and nothing much happened. So, today, I decided to give myself a cheat day...some people say its to trick our bodies. Normally, I keep my calories below 1200 (OMAD) but today, it was a high 1524 calories due to my love for Texas Toast :yum: My cheat day is a day for me to drown myself in food due to days of disappointment :( As it was so cold...around 5°C (41°F), my kids wanted Texas Toast with lots of Garlic Butter. We made a whole loaf of Tip Top The One Sandwich Bread White and spread each slice with our own homemade garlic butter spread and baked it for 15 mins. OMG, it was delicious with a cuppa <3 In the evening, I did my exercises - 62 mins on my Desk Cycle, Zumba for 45 mins, Tabata Upper Body Exercises & Tabata Lower Body Exercises.

    Hope that everyone is doing well <3

    Have a wonderful weekend <3<3<3

    Good evening OMADers <3

    Weekends....the worse for me as I tend to over-eat...its like a cheat Sunday for me :lol: Oh well..up onto the wagon I go once again. Never weighed myself as I know its not going to be pretty :(

    OMAD at around 1pm today and I had Rice with Black Bean Chicken Breast stir-fried with veggies. Saw Lay's Sweet Chilli & Sour Cream Chips and couldn't resist it and ate half a bag :( Also had 2 little mandarin oranges and drank OJ. As for exercises, I did 45 mins of aerobics, cycled for 1 hour on my desk cycle and some floor exercises.

    Hopefully, I can see some weight loss this week...fingers cross!
