I got my bodymedia calorie counter last night! I charged it, I put it on this morning when I was getting ready, and now... Now I'm paranoid wondering if it's working. lol I will finally find out how many calories I burn during my 10 trips to the bathroom. I will finally find out how many calories milking cows burns! Am I a complete dork? Should I be this excited about seeing calories burned? Shouldn't I be excited about more important things like finding out half my long sleeve clothes are way too big? I think this weekend I'm going to go shopping for some long sleeve t-shirts so I can hide the counter from my co-workers. OMG.. I think I'm ashamed of my new toy! I love my new toy but apparently I'm not ready to stick it out there for all the world to see. I'm a closet counter!!!
Now all I have to do is get my butt in gear when it comes to exercising. I just can't find time. Between work, the farm, the house, the kids, my measly 6 hours of sleep.... There has to be 30 minutes in there somewhere! Maybe I should start shadow boxing during my morning commute. It could help with roadrage. Plus when you're sitting in a seat for over an hour because the roads are covered in ice and everyone is only going 15 mph and you realize there is something strapped to your arm ready to show you that you were a lump on a log for 1 hour and 15 minutes you start to think up ways to move that will most probably make the people around you think you've completely lost it but HEY!.. they're probably going to be less likely to cut you off now.

I think the counter sounds too fun, I would love seeing how many calories everything I do burns LOL. I bought a pedometer, but haven't set it up yet. I want to wear it so I can see how many steps I take during the day and may have to print more stuff to the printer outside my office! Definatley shadow box during your commute! Jillian says if you have a lower body injury, you should shadow box to get your heart rate up. . . so if your sitting and can't get up I'd shadow box!! (I'm doing her 30 day shred video lol)

I just looked up the bodymedia, dang it is expensive! I can't wait to see how it works, and it it reflects what your rdi or bmr are on this site. hmmm. go milk some cows and get back to us LOL.

I got it off the jillianmichaels site because it was 99.00 for the basic unit and then it's only $4 a month after instead of the higher bodymedia rate. And it's a pedometer!! lol Sure a heartrate monitor will do the same thing but at least I know this one is for my age, weight, height, etc. I can't wait to get home and see what I burned sitting on my butt at the office.

Yay! It is SO fun to mess with. And so surprising I think. Can't wait to see what kind of good info you get from it!

Looking forward to hearing all about your new toy...but it seems you have a lot on your plate already...:O)

I forgot to ask you about the monitor!! I want feedback. I was thinking aout trying one. I had a pedometer that told me burn etc but once I got into other things it wasn't enough. Thanks for coming to lunch though! But we really need to get out otherwise... I think we need to go to Destiny with all the new stuff now!!

I'm curious what your monitor says too. A buddy on year last year got one, and it ready a surprisingly high number of calories burned (I thought) for ordinary tasks. That CAN'T be right!
