Weight-lifting: once a week, burning 500 calories.
These numbers don't seem right. I run nearly every day and am similar in size to you, comparatively.

I burn about 325Cal running 5Kms on a treadmill and about 375 running 5kms outside with hills. Are you saying you are running 10Kms a day??? Cause that is what it would take to burn 800cals. That seems unrealistic.

Also, weight training burns very little actual calories. I find it very suspect that you are burning 500cals during a single weight training session, unless it involves a ton of cardio as well.

I think your calorie values are inaccurate.
