    Default Camming and Calories (kinda long)

    Okay I work out pretty much and watch what I eat, but regardless since I quit dancing I've been having quite a difficult time keeping off the extra pounds. So I started using one of those online calorie counters/exercise monitors that also links up to my blackberry, and I basically chart all my food/exercise. So far I've lost about 15lbs! What I'm wondering, though, is how camming figures in to calorie-burning activity. Especially if you do it for multiple hours straight.

    Up until very recently I was only on NF. I'd like, log in and lay around watching TV, eating, and even sleeping w/my makeup on at times until my phone rang. But since I've been doing chat based sites I'm actually, like, working... Tonight, for example, I worked from 10pm to about 4am. I blogged, took/edited/posted photos, recorded/edited/posted videos, performed a few shows per hour (where I danced around quite a bit), and the rest of the time I was still sitting up in a chair quite active online. It was very different from the sleep-camming I'm used to.

    I did this type of thing once before when I did a 2 hour run on MFC, and the next day I was SORE AS HELL, which gets me to thinking... if you cam, and I mean REALLY cam for multiple hours at a time, could it potentially help you to burn calories/lose weight?

    I typed "computer/typing" in to the activity/calorie counter in the program I use, and it said at my weight typing burns about 98 calories/hr. Now, I feel like all the crap I was doing was FAR more than just typing, but even leaving it there, for 6 straight extra hours of "typing", I'm burning near 600 extra calories! I mean even if the calorie counter is off some, that seems like quite a bit! Heck even if you only burn 50 extra calories per hour and work 6 hours, that's 300 calories burned. Right?

    I'm a bit loopy/tired right now and I really don't know why I'm posting this. I just think it'd be neat if I became a dedicated/hard-working cam girl and lost my post-stripper chubs in the process haha... Sorry for the ramble...

    It most definitely can be a workout. I worked a typing job for a bit and started getting a really thick waist and the *only* difference was that I didn't have as much time to cam.

    I'm new to the whole cam girl thing, and I too have put on extra pounds...and I know it can get a bit annoying to obsess about it, and to worry about how you look in lingerie, at least that's how I am...but I just wanted to say I love your threads and keep us updated with your progress!

    The first nite I cammed I was sore as hell the next morning. It came from sticking my butt up in the air all the time in pvt. I stretch first now.

    haha... thanks girlies the site is livestrong.com and the specific app i'm talking about is called "the daily plate". here is the direct link to the blackberry app. this thing is AWESOME! seriously i'll like go running and put in the calories right then and there. and when i'm out on the go and REALLY hungry, the database is super huge and it has like every restaurant in there, so before i order i'll type in whatever it is i'm wanting to eat, and that way i can decide if it's worth it to me to eat that on that day. sometimes i even go backwards and look things up by the restaurant, then find what's on the menu that has the least calories. i swear by this app! it's available on blackberry, iphone and android, and automatically synchs up to your account on the web too!
