We hope you enjoy providing offset certificates to your friends. And, we invite you to provide calorie expenditures to the site. While we'll be sweating so you don't have to - the more you contribute, the better for all of us.
Have a great visit - and let us know the calories you would like to contribute, and your thoughts on this site.

Calorie Tally
30 December: 107.052 calories - Growing again - a post holiday rush to expend rather than expand. Hurrah! Keep up the good work, so we can gift your calories on!
What is OK Calorie Offsets?
OK Calorie Offsets ensures that you can provide your friends calorie-neutral gifts: we provide the proof that the calories in the food they receive from you have been expended already. Our role is to aggregate expended (and unreplaced) calories, and provide the certificate.
This site has several functions:
to provide indulgences - a clean conscience, while indulging yourself or your friends and family - a fun addition to an edible gift.
to provide a storehouse for "unused" calories when you exercise, and motivate you to exercise today in order to indulge yourself (or a friend!) another day;
enable you to share stories about the best way for you, your teams, groups and others to contribute and draw down calories.
poke some fun at the notion of offsets. While the idea of ensuring that total carbon / obesity / pollution levels are lowered is good, in practice offsets ensure that people can salve their consciences without changing behaviours in a meaningful way.
So help make a difference by contributing spent (and unreplaced!) calories for yourself, your family and your friends. Calculate using the calculator below, then send us the results. We will keep a running tally, and as soon as we find a gadget that can tally, we'll post the gadget so you can see the results immediately!
