I burned more calories in that 15 minute workout than I normally do. I forgot to take a photo of it but I burned about 300 calories!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/buttbuster.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-13072\" title=\"buttbuster\" src=\"http:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/buttbuster-200x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/buttbuster-200x300.png 200w, https:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/buttbuster.png 320w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I followed up with the Butt Buster workout while I watched &#8220;Heavy&#8221; on TV.\u00a0 This last week wasn&#8217;t a great episode. Eric and Lindy were both <strong>cry babies<\/strong>. All they did was complain. They were sarcastic, negative, they cried, they moaned and just generally complained about being on the show&#8230;which I thought was weird because it&#8217;s not like they were being FORCED to be on the TV show. If they truly didn&#8217;t want to lose weight, why were they there?<\/p>\n<p>They are there to do something dramatic and wonderful: lose half their body weight. And they&#8217;ve been given the opportunity to have every resource they need at their fingertips for a year. Personal Trainers. Nutritionists. They stayed for a month at a resort-like camp where they got to focus on health. That sounds like a dream to me.<\/p>\n<p><strong>I think it&#8217;s noble that Eric was losing the weight for his kids.<\/strong> I&#8217;m not sure why it was such a mental struggle for him to lose the weight when he had such a GOOD reason to do so. Lindy was the same way. She gained over 100 pounds from a divorce and she was depressed that her ex had custody of her kids. But all she did was complain about it! For both of them their biggest issue will be the NEGATIVE way they talk to themselves.<\/p>\n<p>I was also a cry baby last night. For a few days now Michael and I were trying to book plane tickets to Arizona. The flight times weren&#8217;t working with our schedule or plan and it was really frustrating. I know, I know. Another <a href=\"http:\/\/www.urbandictionary.com\/define.php?term=white%20girl%20problems\">WGP<\/a>. WAH. I whined about the airlines overcharging customers by making the cheapest flights the LEAST desirable times to travel and cursed them messing with our vacation. In the end it got resolved and we booked flights to Tuscon by way of Phoenix (direct flight too!). Looking forward to some sunshine soon!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/nikeapp.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-13078\" title=\"nikeapp\" src=\"http:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/nikeapp-200x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/nikeapp-200x300.png 200w, https:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/nikeapp.png 320w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>After I completed the 30 minutes or so of training from the App, I hopped on the bike for another 45 minutes of cardio. I like the training App a lot. In fact I like it better than trying to watch a workout video on Netflix (or a DVD).<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/caloriesburned.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-13080\" title=\"caloriesburned\" src=\"http:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/caloriesburned-e1297295880495-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/caloriesburned-e1297295880495-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/caloriesburned-e1297295880495.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Stats:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Time: 1:08<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Calories Burned: 588<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>While I was on the bike Michael made us dinner.

The lemon was really overpowering. I like  lemon but it was a bit strong. The potatoes were also al-dente. The chicken turned out really well.
