I'm looking for desk job workers to be friends with! It's crazy challenging trying to stay focus! Add me as a friend and let's motivate each other.

    Me too! I'm literally tied to the phone and computer all day at work. I've been doing some leg lifts and squats when I can.

    I'm also a desk job worker. It's a challenge for me to try to get in at least 10,000 steps a day. Feel free to add!

    I'm a desk worker too! This is my first week on MFP - working on getting 10Lbs or so off and then will try to tackle the FitBit's 10K steps in. I find myself reaching for the candy jar so absentmindedly its scary. I have to be more conscious of breaking these habits. I feel as though once I sit my butt in the seat my mindset is "what can I eat"

    I definitely want to switch careers. I try to do calf raises, and take some bands with me to work. But the motivation is lacking. I do eat healthy though.

    I am the same way. I try to go for walks on lunch or if I am lucky go to the gym at lunch but that doesn't happen alot. I also park about 1 km away form where I work so I get a bit of a walk to and from my car. Feel free to add me if you wish.

    Same here. I walk on the treadmill after work and try to remember to do stairs whenever I have a bathroom break, but all the sitting really saps your energy. Lunch time short walks are a life saver also.

    Would love some motivational office buddies! Being chained to the desk is no fun.
