Frist day is in June 2010 – still over 300 pounds at this point.   I did 2 hours in the gym and then worked a long wedding in a mountain venue where I was on my feet and moving all afternoon and night.

Just shy of 4900 calories burned for the day.   Makes me wish I could shoot weddings every day – but days like this only roll around about 25 times a year at best.

Earlier this month:

Just shy of 5000 calories burned, but on this day I was in the gym over 3.5 hours and ran 13.1 miles – yeah that was the burn from my half marathon run.

Of course being 60-70 pounds lighter makes a big difference between how much is burned when working – but it’s still interesting to see different ways to reach these kind of numbers of burn and just what it takes.
