As I said I would I wore my HMR at boring, terrible, "I vow to abide all speed limits" traffic school and as I sat on my butt for 8 hours I burned....1148 calories?????? huh? I did walk to my car 4 times to feed the meter but other than that and the occasional trip to the restroom I didn't move much. So why so many calories??? I can only assume ( I have no medical proof) that you burn so many calories a day just by living! and for me I thought that it would be much less! So in these 8 hours to burn almost my daily intake is not so bad! Maybe my metabolism is not as bad as I though!
When I got home I ran around the block a few times to try to shake this buggering down in the dumps mood and burned another 84 calories! But it didn't help the headache, back ache and bloatingggggg.
Here is a recap of me eats from today but due to my wrist I am not going to caption every pic. I packed my lunch to bring to traffic school; a wrap with Tofurkey, munster cheese, lettuce, cucumber, broccoli, mustard it was ok, not anything mindblowing, and an apple. The rest of the pics are pretty self explanatory. I have been a creature of habit of late. I will get to your blogs tomorrow! I love all your complements on my Hand Made Larabars! You guys are the best! Really worth a try!
Goodnight everyone, I am off to soak in the tub with a glass of wine to erase this day! The pictures start with my bfast:

ReplyDeleteblegh i hate aunt flo~ hope you feel better, i'm sure the wine and bath helped! =)
Yeah you burn a certain amount of calories per day, even if you were just to lie in bed. I forget what it is called right now...BMR or something. It's more calories than one would think, though! I want a heart rate monitor!
ReplyDeleteI especially like your breakfast photo--is that a greek yogurt combo?
Lara- It's crazy how many calories we burn! You should totaly get a HRM they work so well and you can really see the changes in your workouts! Yes the bfast is the blueberry oat greek yogurt combo1 A new fave you will see it a lot!
ReplyDeleteThat's really interesting about the HRM - I've wondered what they would say if you just sat around all day, good to know!
