Remember this nifty little gadget?
(See my post on March 26th.)
For the "newbies"... back in March
I bought my friend here. A gal I
work with has one (different than
mine) and she tracks her steps with
a group at her church.
Well, I became curious and wondered
"just how many steps did I take a day."
As of today with the total from March
up to last night I have --
Taken 362,629 steps
Gone 144.88 miles
Burned 24,016 calories
Each night I write my daily totals down.
Woo hoo!
School keeps me busy, so it will be interesting
to see what my totals will be over summer
break. I'll have it on don't you fret.
On May 19th I will have had my friend for
two months. You would be surprised how
you will push yourself to get those totals
you want. If I am shy of the 10,000 steps,
you can find me walking my hall or around
the kitchen just to get there!
~Keep on Dreaming~
Wow, good for you Melinda,
ReplyDeleteI really need to buy a step counter. that's a lot of calories burned.
Keep up the good healthy walking, Elizabeth
Thanks--it's fun to see the progress!
DeleteHave a great evening.

I just down-loaded a step counting app for my phone. But I keep putting my phone down so that sure doesn't help! lol.. 10000 steps is a lot! Interesting to see how many steps you have taken and the calorie count!
ReplyDeleteYea, you kinda got keep the phone with you. : )
DeleteYou'd be surprised how many times you could get 10,000 steps.
Good Luck!

That's a lot of walking in a day. For me, 10,000 Steps is four miles. That's tiring!
ReplyDeleteI do a lot of walking at school so that helps.

We had a step counter once but couldn't really get it to work right. My husband has used some kind of phone app to see how far we walk on hikes and our usual morning walk. Walking is good exercise, for sure!
ReplyDeleteYes it is! Mr. Ken and I both have
Deletestep counters on our phones but I
don't carry my phone around school with
me.

I have seen a lot of people starting to use them more. Keep up the walking....good job!
ReplyDeleteThanks!
DeleteIt helps a lot to see the progress.

I have a tracker on my phone... I check my distance and calories burned every day... I love to watch it!
ReplyDeleteIt is fun isn't it?
DeleteM : )
good for you! I got a pedometer from work but I am always forgetting to attach it to myself. :)
ReplyDeleteTry to remember, you'll be surprised.
DeleteI keep mine in my pocket.

I really need to get one of these. As you indicated, they really are great motivators.
ReplyDeleteBTW, I must be REALLY old because I'm even older than my house;) Thanks for stopping by!
Too funny!
