Just done my 500 hulahoops! phew....i couldnt keep it up for more than 100, kept falling down

Wont be able to do the hoop over the weekend as I keep it at work, so I will do the vibro plate 3 x 10 mins over the weekend instead.

Howdy, you'll always be eye-candy to me!!!!!!!!!

Scotsmist, I wasn't going to join this challenge coz I'm off to my sisters tomorrow but I decided that was no excuse!!!!! Could you please put me down for 40 sit ups a day + 2 x a fitness video (did once this morning will do the other when I get back) and 10,000 steps a day (my daughter is buying me a pedometer today!) If my sis goes to her Body Pump class next week then I'll join her. Thank you.

So its 3pm and I already burned: 2039.6 kcal

I wish it was working like that but it never does. If I would count everything like ironing, floor cleaning, walking etc... I would be like minus 500 kgs. But it was a good reading. I was just wondering why people bother with the forth one if you could only get to lose 29 less kcal from sleeping. And people deluding themself about the hour mark too on that one..lol

Not sure my OH would appreciate that shopping uses more calories than sex!!!!! Any excuse though!!!! Have been shopping today!

Thank you Scotmist will stick to it while I'm away as not sure if I'll be able to post for encouragement and inspiration.

Great list !

Re sex @ 50 -100 cals per hour.... do you think solo efforts count... ? If so I'd like to claim an extra 10,000 calories burnt off per day

 

[cuddlyfairy]

Lol Howdy!!!!! I've missed your special brand of humour!!!! I'm sure all efforts, solo or otherwise will use up calories so keep it up!!!!! Lol!
