Big Ole Gardening Day

I gardened from 9:00 this morning to 4:00 this afternoon. I would say I took about 9o minutes of break time during the day. Gardening burns more calories than my walking does, but it's not as good aerobic exercise. So I am going to give myself five miles worth. Calories burned are about 272 an hour bringing today's total to 1361. If I kept my yard perfect I might be thin.

Doing a Little Better

Ate okay today. Not perfect, but did not over eat and had some veggies. I did garden this afternoon. The hard kind moving compost and such. I added up those calories and matched them to the calories burned walking. I added it to my walking ticker. My gardening counts.

Did Some Actual Gardening Today.

Worked for a friend for about five hours today. Feeling it in my back and legs. This is my REAL exercise. This I will actually do. She fed me a great lunch and gave me cuttings and eggs. I love my job and my friends. Warning, I'm going to be whining about this tomorrow.
