Challenge Day #3 and the GoWear Fit

Yesterday's Numbers...

Calories burned from 4:00 till midnight:
2026

Steps taken from 4:00 till midnight:
2724

Mod Activity:
29 minutes (Interesting. I wonder what they consider Mod?)

This thing is so cool. I ended up burning 2028 calories from 4:00 PM till midnight. I did do my 45 minutes of Wii during that time but I also had a PTA Meeting. So not bad. The system has recommended that if I eat 2000 calories a day, I need to burn 3000 a day to lose 2 pounds a week. Well that just doesn't seem right as I am not losing any weight right now but it seems I am burning somewhere around 3000 calories. But today will be a better look. I also need to better count my calorie intake. So, not much to report right now, but I will have more numbers tonight.

In my sleep, from Midnight till 6:30 I burned 552 calories.

As of this posting at 7:50AM I have burned 756 calories.

Today
Input:
Iced Tea
CFA Breakfast Burrito with Sausage and a couple of Hashbrowns (ate 1/2 of it) [460 + 260] / 2 = 360 ish
Iced Tea
New Pizza Savorings Thingys - 260 Calories per serving (4)
SlimFast Optima Snack - 120 Calories
Pepper Steak - 166 Calories
Sundried Tomato Pasta - 360 Calories

Total = 1266

Output:
My Wii Piggy Bank turned silver today. Woohoo. Over 20 hours of Wii Fit exercise.
57 Minutes of Wii Fit...
13 Minutes of Strength
20 Minutes of Free Step
7 Minutes of Hula Hoop
11 Minutes of Yoga
2 Minutes of Strength again because Keira woke and wanted to do the Jackknife with me.
4 Minutes of Balance so Keira could see the "Baas"(balls/marbles)

Challenge Day #2 and My New Toy

I am running out the door to a PTA meeting but wanted to get my current exercise in before I forget.

Input:
Bowl of Special K Cereal with 2% milk
Salami Sandwich
Watermelon Iced Tea
Bean and Corn Salsa with Tortilla Chips
Cheesecake


Output:
46 Minutes Wii Fit...
11 Minutes Strength
20 Minutes Step
15 Minutes of Yoga and more Strength


Ok, so I got my new toy today. Woohoo! The GoWear Fit (To be referred to as GWF from now on). It's so cool. I wear it on my arm and it tracks my activity throughout the day. It let's me know how many calories burning I'm burning, how many steps I have taken, etc. It even works while I am sleeping.

I wore it from 4:00 on today, so I don't have a full set of numbers, but I will post what it said tomorrow. I am already addicted.
