I biked back from work today, an accomplishment I WAS very proud of up until a few minutes ago. That was after I finished my celebratory donuts and Gatorade I "earned" from the bike ride and decided to crunch the numbers on the actual calories burned.
According to Mapquest I biked 5.54 miles.
According to the Calories Burned Estimator I burned 554 calories during my trip.
According to the Dunkin Donuts website all the donuts I consumed added up to 720 calories.
According to the nutritional information on the side of the bottles of Gatorade I consumed 260 calories.
980 calories taken in, 554 calories burned, for a net gain of 426 calories.
I always knew math would be my downfall.
Lesson learned: can't win, don't try!
