500 calories!

I burned 500 calories...in fact, 503, on the elliptical machine today. It took a little over 40 minutes. I worked my ass off to reach 500 calories in 40 minutes and I did it. I feel pretty awesome. I kept my caloric intake at 1,700 today. A little more than I'd like, but given how much I busted my ass in my workout I feel OK about it.
