Not Nearly Enough

Like a good girl, went to the gym tonight and used the stationary bike. My knee feels fine but I barely burned any calories. I was exercising pretty hard for 45 minutes and I only burned 250 calories. With the same time on the elliptical I can burn almost 400 calories....

I think I'm going to stick to swimming, but I can't swim every day, so what else should I do? I'll take any suggestions for exercises that are easy on my knee but burn a lot of calories.

How 'bout "the weird stuff?"

Such a sad and lonely WW meeting today. :-(....

The weird stuff actually burns more calories than riding a bike. As you might guess, my oh-so-helpful husband suggested this immediately when I complained about the bike. I think I'm going to try to slowly reintroduce elliptical too. We'll see how my knee feels.

Oh, I'll be back at WW next week. I feel bad for missing out again.
