Thought I'd start today.  Especially since I just blew my WW points on a freaking bacon, egg, and cheese kolache


B: started off well haha  banana walnut oatmeal with a banana chopped up and a glass of milk (7 pts)


S: bacon, egg, and cheese kolache (I think around 8pts)


L: soy corn dog (3) ff pudding (2) carrots (0)


D: spagetti with chicken sasauge (6ish) small salad (2) and italian margaritas (??)


E: I guess I'll be exercising tonight.  Maybe another 30-40 mins on the eliptical. 


Question: How do you calculated the points "earned" from exercising.  It seems kinda vague to me.  How do you determine at what intensity you are working out at?  I know I'm at low to light exercise when I don't break a sweat but what if I'm wet but not dripping wet/soaked?  What level is that?

Aurora, have you thought about investing in a heart rate monitor?  I usually rate how I am doing on a scale of 1-10, and I try to hit between a 5-8 when I am working out on my own, but on those days I feel "off,"  I use a HR monitor to help me figure out where I am in exertion level. 


B:  oatmeal, chicken and egg whites


S:  granola


L:  grilled chicken breast and whole wheat bread sandwich


S:  protein shake


D:  Grilled Chicken breast


E:  3 mile run

i hadn't thought of that yet.  Right now I base it off of how my legs feel when I'm done (jelly vs. tired vs. no change) and how many bottles of water I go through during and right after I work out (1.5-2 bottles vs. 1 or no bottles).  I've kinda been at the jelly and 2 bottles = high intensity and the tired almost jelly and 1.5 bottles = medium intensity haha.
