Let's face it: no matter how hard we try, we always end up eating a lot of food during holiday meals. Who can blame us, right? It's no secret that Thanksgiving dinner is one of the most delicious holiday dinners there is: The turkey! The stuffing! The pie! It's also no secret that after gorging on that super delicious meal, plus seconds (and maybe thirds too, let's be honest), you will also be thinking about those calories and subsequent extra pounds. Since Thanksgiving dinner should be all about enjoyment instead of guilt, plan in advance for how you can burn off those extra calories.

The most obvious way to get rid of those packed on Thanksgiving calories is through exercise. Except regular exercise can be kind of a drag. Sure, you could jump on the elliptical for a couple of hours or do some laps at the pool or go for a job. But there's a way more fun option you might not have considered yet: sex! Yes, you read right: sex!

You Can Use Sex To Burn Off All Of Those Unwanted Thanksgiving Dinner Calories.

People often forget that sex is a form of exercise but it most certainly is. You move your body, your heart-rate increases, you stretch, you breath heavy: sex is definitely exercise. In fact, many scientists and researchers say that a vigorous round of sex can burn more calories than a brisk walk. Most importantly: a brisk walk definitely doesn't feel as good! The next time you're going down on your partner or having an orgasm, remember that you're burning calories and participating in a healthy form of exercise. Amazing!

Kiss, Lick, And Thrust Your Way To Burning Off Those Thanksgiving Dinner Calories!

Before you embark on your Thanksgiving Dinner calorie burning sex adventure, it is good to ask yourself what you need to know.T here are only a few things that you need to consider! We will first list them out below:

1. What did you eat for Thanksgiving dinner?

2. How many calories does that equal?

3. How many calories, on average, do you burn during sex?

4. Does the kind of sex you have make a difference in how many calories you burn?

And now we will go into each question in more detail as we work to figure out how many times you need to have sex to burn off Thanksgiving dinner calories:

1. What did you eat for Thanksgiving dinner?

Before you can burn off your calories with sex, you need to know how many calories you consumed. And in order to know how many calories you consumed, you need to know what you ate! Sometimes it can be difficult to remember what you ate, so we recommend writing down what was in your thanksgiving meal before you consume it. Maybe just don't tell anyone your reason for writing it down—especially your grandmother! While there is no shame in sex as exercise, it might not be the best topic of conversation to go around the Thanksgiving dinner table.

Often families make the same meal year after year for Thanksgiving so you can easily save your list and re-use it year after year. How convenient is that, right! It is also important to note every single thing you eat so you can get an accurate count of your calories. For example, if you eat corn on its own versus corn with butter on it. You can't forget that even a smear of butter can add a bunch of extra calories!

2. How many calories does that equal?

Every single item of food has a calorie count. We won't go into too much of the science behind it because that's boring! And we still have all of the fun sex-talk to get to. Instead, you can trust as that all food has calories and when you eat these food items you increase your own caloric intake. This isn't bad, of course! Humans need calories to have energy to function, after all. But often we consume more calories than we need and require exercise to burn them off. If we do not burn off these calories, they can cause us to gain weight. And like we mentioned above, you can burn off calories the normal, boring way with traditional exercise or the more fun way with sex! No matter what, we'll always vote for the more fun way.

To give you an idea of how many calories are contained in the average Thanksgiving dinner, we have put together a list of common items found on many Thanksgiving tables. We have included the calorie count with all of these items. Some of them might have expected calorie amounts and others might be a surprise! We were definitely surprised by a few of the numbers.

Now you are probably thinking that is a lot of calories! But you also need to keep in mind that the above list is just one single helping of food. As well all know, many people go after seconds and thirds for thanksgiving meals. And if you really think about it, one cup of mashed potatoes is really skimpy too. But for the sake of simplicity, let's assume that we are talking about burning off the calories from one helping of Thanksgiving dinner. And to make it even easier, let's round down to 3,000 calories.

3. How many calories, on average, do you burn during sex?

Now you know what you ate for Thanksgiving dinner and approximately how many calories that contained. Now it's time to talk about sex, what you've been waiting for and definitely the most important and interesting part of this answer, that is for sure.

So how many calories do you burn during sex? Well, first it must be stated that men burn more calories, on average, than women. We like to think that is better news for the women, however, as it means they get to have more sex to reach their calorie burning goal! Researchers and scientists say that in the average sex session men burn approximately 100 calories and women burn 69 calories. That may not seem like very much but it is actually equivalent to a walking pace of 3 miles per hour, which is to say that the level of exercise intensity that one exerts during sexual activity equals the same level of exercise intensity of a brisk walking pace. How interesting!

4. Does the kind of sex you have make a difference in how many calories you burn?

The above statistics are fairly basic when it comes to sexual activity. There are a lot of other factors you need to consider when wanting to use sex to burn off calories after Thanksgiving dinner. For example, how long are you having sex for? The duration of your sexual activity can have an impact on how many calories you burn. The type of sex you have can also change how many calories you burn. For example, a position like missionary burns a lot less calories than one that involves more standing or stretching.

Most typical sexual activity lasts about 25 minutes. This includes from the very start of foreplay until the end. Of course it is important to remember that this is just an average! If the duration of your sexual activity is shorter or longer, that is totally okay. Remember, all that matters is that you are having a great time using sex to burn off those thanksgiving calories.

Researchers have come up with a math equation to help you figure out the basic number of calories you have burned during sex. If you are a man, multiple the length of sex in minutes by 4.2. If you are a woman, multiple the length of sex in minutes by 3.1. It is important to keep in mind that this is simply an average. Despite this, it is a fairly accurate method of figuring out how many calories you burn during sex!

So Just How Many Times Do You Have To Have Sex To Burn Off Thanksgiving Dinner?

Now that we've come up with an average of the calories eaten at Thanksgiving dinner (3000) and the average calories burned during sex (100 for men, 69 for women), we can do some simple math to come up with the amount of times you would need to have sex to burn off all of those calories. For the average man, it would be 30 times and for the average woman it would be 43 times to have sex in order to burn off a Thanksgiving dinner.

We know what you're thinking: that's a lot of sex! In fact, that might be too much sex for one day. (Or maybe not...we don't know just how active you are in bed!) It's totally okay to spread out your sexual exercise over multiple days. Those calories aren't going anywhere!

Here are some other things to keep in mind:

1. Keep an eye on how much you eat.

If you are concerned about your calorie intake, consider having a smaller meal. Of course this means less sex to burn off less calories! Another super easy way to cut back on calories is to skip dessert and/or any alcoholic beverages.

2. Try out more vigorous positions.

The average calories burned during sex that we listed account for the most typical, simple sex positions. More taxing positions, like doggie style or positions where you are both standing can burn a lot more calories. Also don't forget about foreplay! This is a great way to get the heart pumping and add a lot of movement to your sex adventures.

3. Don't get hung up on the numbers.

Remember that calories are good! It's not completely necessary to burn off every single calorie you eat during your delicious Thanksgiving dinner. Thanksgiving dinners are meant to be enjoyed, as is sex. Sex isn't just about burning calories. It's about feeling good, having fun, and getting off.

4. Experiment!

Who said that you had to do all of your sexual activities AFTER you finish Thanksgiving dinner? Why not try combining sex with Thanksgiving desert. Try eating pie and whipped cream off of your lover. It will feel amazing and taste amazing! We love combining food with sexual pleasure. Now will it necessarily help your calorie count? Not really, but who cares!

So there you have it: a definitive guide to how many times you would have to have sex to burn off Thanksgiving dinner. In the end, while we did come up with a fairly accurate number, it's important not to get too distracted by numbers and calorie burning. The most important thing about Thanksgiving dinner is eating amazing food with your loved ones. And, of course, enjoying some sexy times with your lover after dinner is over! (And maybe before dinner too. Whenever you can take a moment to get away, really.)

There is nothing better than enjoying sex after eating a delicious home cooked meal, as well. Depending on how much you eat, you may have to take a nap first, though! Turkey-induced naps are definitely a thing but this is another opportunity to cozy up with your lover in preparation of burning calories.

Using sex to burn off Thanksgiving dinner calories is a great idea but do not forget these important notes: watch what you eat, try out more vigorous sex positions, don't get too hung up on the numbers, and experiment!
