      I have used the map my walk app, and the app was not great and wiped out the battery on my phone, but you go in you can actually plot your walking route and that is far easier and more accurate.

      I'm in. I lost 49 pounds using MFP starting June 1st - gained back 5 at Christmas and stopped tracking. Must get my mojo back - I want to lose 100 pounds total by August. I was stunned & dismayed at how fast my bad habits came back at Christmas. :( Got to get back motivated. Walked 2.5 at the Y today, 20 minutes on the bike and nautilus -but my enthusiasm is just not there. Any advice to get back on track?

      I'm in! Except I'll start tomorrow, because this hangover is going to be here a while.

      It was 30*F when I started this morning and I was just not wanting to be out there.

      That's what it is here right now. I'm going to hit my treadmill. It has a nice place for my iPad and I can watch a show on Netflix while I walk. I'll get outdoors when it's at least above freezing!

      Almost 5 miles at work today. Desperately need new shoes! Will order new nursing shoes this weekend and new exercise shoes next week.

      I'm in on this for sure. I have a garmin that I do like so far. It's cold here in Iowa, so outdoor walking is out for me until it warms. I can always walk in place inside :smile:

      I have gone through three pairs of shoes for 2015, no telling what I will do this year.
