Exercise
Woke up at 0330 today and got out of bed at 0345. I was in the basement by 0415 and did the Fat Burner Express video. Again, I kept up with the video's pace and used a 10 pound dumbbell instead of a medicine ball. I was sweating by the end of it, but it felt oh so good! I think that this routine is actually more difficult cardio-wise than the Sweat 1-2 program.
I looked at the time of it, and it is 25 minutes (28 including Power Yoga) of constant moving without rest except to switch positions and exercises. Sweat 1-2 only has 10 minutes (14 including Power Yoga) before you get a break. Granted the break is only 30-40 seconds, but then you get the easier kicking/punching for 12 minutes.
Sweat 3-4 adds another 4-5 minutes to the first round and 6 minutes in the second, bringing the total up to 15 minutes of high-intensity cardio before the break and 18 minutes of lighter intensity after the break. Again, this is only approximate, it may be off by a minute or two, but it is still surprising to me!

We went to Andiamo's before the hockey game and I got something off their lean menu. It was a total of under 600 calories, which isn't too much more than I'm supposed to have anyway! It was great!
