Yeah it totally depends on your size and intensity. I did a 2 mile run today at 6.5mph on the treadmill, no walking, and burned about 170 calories (according to my chest and wrist strap monitors, not the machine)

My husband believed in the "I can eat all I want to if I exercise" myth. I then told him if that was true then I would be incredibly skinny. When I survey and take my pedometer I regularly make more than 33,000 steps a day. If you don't think that's much, try it. Over mud, rocks, high grass, and 6 foot tall corn (wear long sleeves, corn cuts!).

I could do all that and maintain at 220 pounds through a healthy diet of pop tarts, chinese take out, and cookies. Oh, and a burger for lunch. Yep. Exercise all I want!
