    a few minutes late for Sunday, but I walked around the grocery store for approx a half an hour, and helped a friend move all afternoon so lots of extra steps doing that :)

    Good morning everyone. I'd like to join in please - I walked a lot last year but been slacking the past few months and getting back to it now; need the motivation with winter here now. I love walking outdoors but not so much indoors lol. But will have to depend on the treadmill over the next few weeks and that's way easier to talk myself out of

    Sadly, I didn't meet my goal yesterday--should have known it was too ambitious. I did get in 7,060 steps, which means I've exceeded my general goal of 7,000 steps per day for six of the past seven days. Yay me for that anyway. :)

    Today's goal is 7,000 steps. Work days are sometimes tough, but it is a cardio day so I should make it. Speaking of which, need to get moving.....

    Have a great day!

    I was on my iPhone so it cut off the rest of my post LOL - which finished with "so this will be a good challenge to ensure I don't wussy out on days I can't get outside to walk. I use the Runkeeper app, so I'm not sure yet whether i'll be logging time or distance, but I WILL be logging one or the other every day!

    Yesterday I walked for an hour bundled up from head to toe down at the waterfront path... i'm thinking carrying the extra weight from piling on parka, mittens, scarf and ear muffs helped me burn off a few extra cals?? :)
    (Well, it was worth a shot to claim....?) ha... but I did get in an hour walking nonetheless :)

    01/02/2016 - walked 2.2 miles - 45 mins
    01/03/2016 - walked 2.2 miles - 45 mins
    01/04/2016 - walked 2.5 miles - 50 mins

    It's not even 1 pm here and I almost have 10k steps in already. I'm not sure if my new FitBit is over calculating or if I'm just being that much more active since I'm wearing it now!
