Day 2

Hello August 15th- you are not being kind to my stomach today.  In a normal situation I would just lay here and whine all day that I have a belly ache but going to keep my promise to myself and do my abdominal workout!!  I also have this little thing called laundry to do.  Somewhere in there if this stomach ache could disappear would be great!! In case it does not though I decided to see what little things one could do to burn calories:

1. Well if you are a bookworm like me you will like to know that sitting and reading burns 88 calories a minute.  Pulling out a book right now for the rest of the day!

2.  While working on this blog (or actually at work) I can burn about 102 calories an hour sitting on the computer.

3.  Drinking ICE cold water, your body burns calories warming up the water.

4.  Laughing burns 10-40 calories in 15 minutes.  (New goal surround myself with comedians, I want to be rolling on the floor with laughter all day long)

Not that I want to go promoting laziness but good to know that even the little things burn calories.  Well the tummy ache is still here BUT I did successfully complete my abdominal workout again.  That's two days in a row, so happy.  On tomorrow's agenda, drink plenty of (ice cold) water, 40 minutes of cardio, and of course my ab workout again.

Looking forward to a week of activity and productivity...I see bright things on the horizon!
