Guest guest Posted April 6, 2004 Report Share Posted April 6, 2004 Hi , On both Monday and Tuesday I only made it to 4-thousand-something steps. I didn't write it down. It's a long long way to 10,000! Bette Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 6, 2004 Report Share Posted April 6, 2004 Made it to 8,956...getting there ! Still didnt get to do my walking tapes, so once I add them I will sure make the 10,00 Flidais( 310 /272 /140) 38 lb since Jan 04 Homeschooling mom to the future Emeril Gates Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 6, 2004 Report Share Posted April 6, 2004 I got my Digiwalker pedometer in the mail at work yesterday and of course left it sitting on my filing cabinet! I wanted to calibrate it by walking at the track last night. Today it is storming and raining like heck so I may just put on my old inaccurate pedometer and see where that goes! 303.4/250/130 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 6, 2004 Report Share Posted April 6, 2004 Bette, If I wasn't running, I have no idea how I would reach 10,000 steps a day. I only run 3x's a week and today is not one of those days. I guess I'll just have to wait and see how well (or bad) I do w/out the running. =) I think the best part of this is to just have a number to work off of. It gives me a goal and also gives me feedback on how much I'm actually moving during the day. If my steps are low that week and I don't have a good loss, I'll probably increase my activity. Personally, I'm constantly in competition w/ myself. Good luck today. 175/155.8/130 Original Message: ----------------- From: mousikos@...

Guest guest Posted April 6, 2004 Report Share Posted April 6, 2004 Great numbers! It really is tough to hit 10,000. I didn't do it today, even w/ Curves. 6,000 steps even steven. Oh well. =) G. 175/155.8/130 Height= 5'3''... Age= 24 Re: Monday Steps Made it to 8,956...getting there !

Guest guest Posted April 7, 2004 Report Share Posted April 7, 2004 Tuesday I made it to 7,665. No exercise...just spent the whole day cleaning up after one sick kid and comforting one scared one( away from mom and dad for the first time and thinks that throwing up is scarry). Didnt even get dishes or laundry in . However...I think I burned off a lot more calories using upper arm movements ( scrubbing and so forth) so it may have totalled 10,00 steps worth of activity !

Thanks, ! I agree with this....I'm not going to let a high number that " seems " unreachable discourage me! This is something I've learned over the past 10 months on WW.... not to look ahead to the overwhelming BIG number, but rather to focus on one day at a time, one 10-lbs at a time, and now maybe 100 steps at a time! This is going to be fun! Bette Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 7, 2004 Report Share Posted April 7, 2004 , I discovered something funny during yesterday's step counting... I checked the pedometer every now and then to see if it was looking like a reasonable count for what was going on. I discovered that when I went to (pardon the vernacular) . . . pee, the movement of taking pants down and pulling them back up really jarred the ped, and it added 30 or 40 steps!! LOL. Doesn't that make you wonder what ELSE the thing might add points for? LOL! Bette Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 7, 2004 Report Share Posted April 7, 2004 I was going through a funky time w/ my old job and my husband suggested I start a housekeeping business. If I wasn't concerned that I might not enjoy cleaning my own house anymore, I probably would have done it. =) 175/155.8/130 Original Message: ----------------- From: mousikos@...
