    I've had a horrible day, how many calories does crying use up because that's the only "exercise" I really got done today. YOu folks keep up the good work. I'm on my way to bed, praying tomorrow will be better than today.

    Today I burnt 593 calories doing 45 minutes of turbo jam and 20 minutes of hips, buns and thighs.
    It would have been more but I was a little obsessed with my HRM (first time using it). Plus, I didn't put the belt on properly and it came off a few time during the first 20 minutes of turbo jam. Once I got things figured out, I was rocking!!

    Today I burned 600 calories doing 25 on the elliptical, 25 on the treadmill, and 25 on the bike.
    I also did a little weight training but I have no idea how to calculate that...Oh well, I'm content with my 600!!

    in Exercise tab:

    type weights> (you will see)>
    Strength training (weight lifting, weight training)>

    Go to one of the calories burned sites: such as the three below, or google calories burned. I like to check three sources and average the three for my answer. MFP often is very high in estimates.

    Today I burned around 150 calories doing an hour of yoga.

    I was very wobbly, so apparently strength training yesterday did fatigue my muscles. (I had only minor soreness. . .):flowerforyou:

    Today I burned 978 calories doing 45 minutes on the elliptical and 30 minutes on the step machine. I have a watch HRM with a telemetry strap. I love that thing. It is much more accurate than the machines. It really pushes me to keep my heart rate in the right zone.

    Today I burnt 1100 calories doing 5 hours of snowboarding in 12" fresh powder!! What a great day. If exercise was that much fun all the time I would have to quit my job:tongue: The perfect end to my week, and I got to eat a big fat burrito with a beer afterwards (and calories remaining)!:drinker:

    Today I burnt 378 calories doing 50 minutes of jogging in place.
    Only way to ease these darn cramps.
    Turbo Jam would have me on the floor right now.

    Can I use the four hours of shopping for clothes and groceries? I never sat down...Criminy - I was in heels. I should get a gold star or something.

    I'm taking 307 (an average of three different sites.)
