Physical activities: ... That you find fun -- sex, dancing, sports, biking, skating, bowling, lots of things. There are calculators available on the internet to help you figure out how many calories you burn with different activities based on your weight, such as this one from healthstatus: http://www.Healthstatus.Com/calculate/cbc.
