I have been walking more lately. I hope it helps toward my goal of feeling better and being more energetic. Oh! I didn’t tell you about my challenge did I? Or maybe I did, my memory can be a funny thing. An old friend of my dad’s was in town a couple weeks ago. He is quite the funny man, I always enjoyed him being around. We were talking about losing weight, among other things. He and I ended up challenging each other to losing 30 pounds in a year. It’s actually a friendly competition to see who can get there first. Upon thinking about it I really only have 15 or 20 pounds to lose, more importantly I want to wear shorts and maybe a swimsuit without being mortified. So Princess and I, and Little Mommy when she’s here, are walking more. Today all total my cell phone (which happens to have a cool pedometer on it!) clocked me at walking 6676 steps today. Not bad! My average in the few weeks I have been monitoring is 4700 steps a day. I figure if I can get a good walk in every couple days I am bound to lose a little weight at a time. Did you know that 6676 steps equates to about 3.5 miles?! Cool huh?
So, wish me luck!
