Exercise

So, yes I woke up bright and early this morning also and did my elliptical routine in spite of the fact that I had to get blood work done also before work and will be going to the Revolution game tonight. Oh and I walked around my school building after school for 45 minutes with a friend as well - which we are going to try to do one day a week. Long day but I feel good. One other thing I am not a huge fan of with this weather is that my classroom is 987234 degrees, roughly and working out is making my body temperature rise so I feel hot all the time and am sweating more. Not my favorite thing but I am hoping my body relaxes and chills out on that front. Otherwise I will be sweating all day even though I shower after I work out. 

I figured out why I had different results for my first two days also.  This particular machine makes you enter your weight and age so it can calculate better. I did it on day 1 but on day 2 I didn't - I just hit enter. So the default weight for the machines is 150, which I clearly am not. The less you weigh, the less you burn for the same amount of work so it thought I was a 150 lb person doing 30 minutes and therefore burned less on day 2 when I really didn't. So I guess it's important to put those numbers in! Thanks dad!
