May Walking Challenge 2014

Fairly new 2 MFP but my goal for next 2 weeks is to do 20 min on elliptical and increase walking 4 the whole month. This goal is great 4 me. Hopefully will b a motivation.

Hi evreryone,
I got my walk in today. I had two grandsons with me. One who is 10, on his bike, and the other is almost 3, he walked and rode in the stroller. We walked to DQ for lunch. I looked up the Grilled Chicken sandwich without mayo and that was my pick for lunch and a SF, FF fudge bar. Probably the best fudge bar on the planet. That was .73 miles.
Then off to the park and playground. We took the long way. Another .77 miles. Hung out and played on playground, hot and windy. Then we headed home, walking against the hot strong wind. Another .63 miles. So my total walking workout was 2.13 miles and 45 minutes of actual walking. I didn't count the playground time.

Came home, drank a gallon of water, and took a short nap with the 3 year old in front of a fan. hahaha

My fitbit recorded my steps, but did not count my walking as active activity. It did yesterday. ?????????????

Be healthy & strong,

5/11 - 3.8

Total 14.3 out of 40

Happy Mother's Day to all, I didn't walk much. About 2 miles. Played around in yard with grandsons. And chased after a 1 year old granddaughter who is walking. I hope everyone had a great day. I had the greatest day with my boys and their families. I had my sad moments, and we shared those too. But mostly lots of laughs. And a healthy lunch. And an okay healthy dinner out. Hitting the pavement hard tomorrow. good night to all.

Be healthy and strong.
