Upsides to the Down Economy/ Spread the Good News!

Kotor, Montenegro
Wow! How did ten days go by without blogging? Some good news to report: Number one, almonds are not as fattening as they were previously reported to be, so you can eat more of them. Apparently they made a mistake when calculating how the calories were used as fuel. I love almonds, so this is good news.

 Number two, Sex burns calories. Well, we all knew this, but it has been broken down as follows:
  • Making out 30 minutes: 230 calories
  • Foreplay, 20 minutes: 87 calories for women, 107 calories for men
  • Unclasping a bra with both hands: 8 calories
  • Unclasping a bra with one hand: 18 calories
  • Unclasping a bra with your mouth: 67 calories
  • Strip tease: 60 calories
  • Oral sex: 100 calories (this doesn't specify men or women)
  • Missionary position, 10 minutes: 250 calories
  • Woman on top, ten minutes, 300 calories for women, 130 calories for men (I always knew this was a lot of work)
  • Sex standing up: Up to 600 calories for both people
  • Masturbation: Up to 150 calories per session
  • Orgasm: Between 60 and 100 calories
According to the Miami Herald (which got this from Chiara Atik of HowAboutWe.com), instead of doing 30 minutes on the elliptical at the gym (around 335 calories), you can do a strip tease, have sex for 10 minutes and unclasp a bra with one hand for the same amount of calories! And we all know this is more fun than the elliptical. So get your groove on and Do it, do it, do it till your satisfied!


Kate in Montenegro last summer
Good news number three: I leave for my Road Trip with Kate today. We are going to Cheyenne, Wyoming, Custer, South Dakota, Mount Rushmore, and Deadwood! This is my graduation present to her for graduating from University of Colorado in the Spring and I can't wait. I will be crossing off two more states (Wyoming and South Dakota) on my list of states to see and checking off an item (Mount Rushmore) on my bucket list! Kate just got her first real job, so we have a lot to celebrate!
