They are haunting me. Gummi Bears…just sitting there asking to be eaten. How do I eat these without feeling guilty about it? I just need to burn off the calories so it is as if I never ate them. Here are few easy ways to burn off calories for those haunting moments during the day:
Cook Dinner: Between chopping and table setting, you'll burn 100 calories in 38 minutes.
Garden: Spend 21 minutes tilling soil and planting in your garden to burn 100 calories.
Walk the dog: Hoof it to the dog park at a relaxed pace to burn 30 calories in 10 minutes. At the park, use the leash to jump rope for only four minutes (40 calories).
Play Soccer with the kids: Dribble and shoot your way through soccer drills for 14 minutes to boot 100 calories.
Dance: repeating a song four times, you'll torch 100 calories.
(Close your eyes Annie and Kaden:)
Sex: slide under the sheets for 20 minutes to burn 100 calories.
Vacuuming: 25 minutes of vacuuming around your home will burn about 100 calories
Walk: 15 minutes of brisk walking will burn approximately 100 calories.
Jog: Do it in-place as you wait for your favorite show to come on. 12 minutes will burn more than 100 calories.
Volleyball: Twelve minutes of volleyball is all it takes to reach 100 calories burned.
Swimming: Of all the summers not to have a pool! Just a 15-minute leisurely swimming will help burn over 100 calories. I’m not even talking laps.
Laugh: If you laugh for 10 to 15 minutes a day, you'll burn up to 50 calories. No joke!
I, of course, gave in to the haunting Gummi Bears, but had fun dancing them off!
Alison, you are my hero...thanks for all of the good choices. Annie and I can't believe how many calories you can lose doing gardening. We seriously gardened two and a half hours this morning, cleaned the pool and set it up, made sloppy joes, laughed and walked all over the house!! That should do for a candy bar aye!
