Title: *[WaLk-iT-oFF]*
Post by: Gingerale on March 26, 2009, 08:04:10 PM
okay. so here's the deal. we're al accountable to each other. above all be honest. Post daily, the time and/or distance you walked, and any extra feelings/tips you'd like to share. Let's try this for a month, and see how it goes, k?    Good Luck!!! When we're all encouraging each other maybe it will help!

Actually, we do a lot of walking when we go shopping. You should get a pedometer and see how much you actually DO walk around just doing every day stuff.

They have them all over. I saw one at CVS, they have them at wally world, they even have them at the dollar store, but they are junk and don't work.

I have a couple. In NY, I had one that worked really well. It died and it was more than the battery, so I had to throw it. Now I can't find one that will work on my waist band. I have to strap it to my leg before it works right. *SHakes head* It's really weird! It SHOULD work. I've tried putting it in my pocket, but unless I hold it against my leg, it won't work.

I don't want elastic around my leg when I go walking. If I'm wearing socks, I can clip it inside that, but it's weird the old one worked so well, and the new one, which is exactly the same, won't work on my waistband.

I didn't like it. I paid too much to join, and felt like i wasn't getting enough exercise, so I joined Gold's Gym.

And the lady told me it wouldnt seem like alot of work...

But I would really know it after the first workout...

I just need help in getting the flab off and loosing inches and toning...

We walked over three miles at the Festival. I clipped my pedometer in my sock since that's the only way it will work properly. LOL

so.... been a while since I posted. LaChrissa has become my walking buddy- which makes it easier. we only walk about every other day now, but I am getting up to 5 miles on those days we walk. sometimes less. depending on how hot it is. but never less than 2 miles. Today we are going to try for 5 since it's cooler.
