This digital read out shows how many calories were burned up after one hour of Rhonda using the exercise bike. Just seeing this number, and knowing it's for calories is not very encouraging. In fact, it is not even burning enough calories to metabolize a handful of M&Ms! But what most people don't realize is that if a person has exercised for an hour, that we should really multiply that number by 24. That's 7008 calories burned in one day!
Remember, last year we both gained 4 pounds over the previous week when we weighed in, the day after Thanksgiving. At this year's wonderful Thanksgiving feast, we ate just as much as last year, but I stayed the same weight and Rhonda gained just two pounds. Next week, we'll not have the traditional feast to contend with and we look to both of us loosing weight.
