You know how there's been a boom in getting everyone healthy and saying we should walk 10,000 steps a day? Well since I work in an office and don't walk round as much as I used to when working elsewhere/uni etc I've bought one.
It's now 11.06 and I've done 552 steps! So only 9448 to go Confused

anyone want to join me in a 10,000 a day quest?

Eve, good for you!! I find my best exercise besides the gym is parking my car where it's free (3 blocks from school), so I burn some calories and save $2 parking per day Very Happy

I do splurge for my night classes as I don't want to walk around at 10pm...but that's only $1 once a week.

I bought one last week and I am seriously shocked at how little I walk my lowest has been 1400 but yesterday it was 6500.

cheers Lianne - I guess the idea is to have a reasonable activity level all the time, no use going to a keep fit class once or twice a week and spend the rest of the time on the couch.

well I went for quick walk at lunch and then for about 30mins after work and I got to about 6800. I hate to think how low it would have been if I hadn't gone for those walks. Confused

I did find myself wanting to walk more with it on which is a good thing.

I've heard those things can do that to you..

Is it noticeable when you wear it?

I'm hoping to get one this summer when I'm in Canada. My Mom and sister both have nice ones. MP3 players that fit on the arm and a little pod that goes on the shoe. It tells speed and distance. I'd like one that incorporates a heart rate monitor. I don't need the music though. I run to a specific rhythm and music disrupts that.
