    I'm with a "Get moving" support group and you can only log you time if you do 20 mins or more. Every 20 mins equals one mile. Every five mins above that is taken as a quarter mile. I use that in all of my exercise. I logged 138 miles for August. This month we are doing a triathlon of different types of exercise like cardio, weights/strengthening, swimming, biking, martial arts, etc. This is to encourage cross training.
    I love the different challenges. I'd love to have a dog but we're in the middle of moving. We'll have to wait until we have our own place again.

    I log 5 minutes of things at a time. I usually use my elliptical only 5 or so minutes at a shot because of my kids being pains in the *kitten* and I get bored. I log so I don't forget and just add to it.

    I logged brushing my teeth....oh wait that was a different thread....I log what I did as thought out pre meditated exercise. I log all I eat and I try to make comments to all I can when I have time and I always answer emails.

    My problem with that is that this program... if you are only averaging 2.0 miles per hour - the defualt post says... (dog walking)... But hey - i've got over 150lbs to lose, as well as a very bad back problem- so I get my 15min 1/2 mile walk (the dog) w/o the dog.....
    BUT, then later i'm at the gym doing 45mins on the recumbant bike -which doesn't hurt my back...

    So I guess I see both sides, and as i'm just startung ( I think week 3 of being inactive for 20+years... we're doing the best we can)
    Hopefully some day, I'll be shredding with the best of us.....

    Hoping you meet your goals!

    Got the prong collar for my beast so walking her is not such a challenge anymore. Pretty much just let my fit bit do it's adjustment and keep around 15-1600. Working do far even though I am in the weeds right now (less than 20# to go...) Even if it takes a year to lose what is left, I am better off than I was before so I don;t worry about it!
    Keep strong!
