Calories burned mucking horse stalls?
Anyone have any idea of the calories burned mucking out horse stalls? I mean, that stuff is heavy, you have to push it into piles, heave it on to your mucking shovel, carry it across to the fence, heave it over, repeat until said horse stall is clean. I did this for about 30 minutes tonight. Not sure how to "count" it!

New Scales, New Results, Old Records?
I have lost about 10 pounds in the last 4-5 weeks. Then I bought a Withings scale, and it weighs me about 3 pounds heavier than the old scale.
