Wow! Three followers now-thanks, Caroline, for joining Abby, Maureen, and I on this journey. I am wondering how the three of you are doing? Have you been able to set and make some goals? As you can see, I have been rather up and down.
We are now mid-way through April! So far the 10 minutes of exercise is helping increase my steps. One day this week I actually made it to over 10,000 steps. I was very excited! I wish I were up to doing that everyday, but usually I am anywhere from 7,000-9,000. The 10 minutes has at least brought me up some.
Any suggestions for a goal for May?
This is how I am doing in my "Road to Healthy Living": Since August, I have been focusing on some health issues that I have ignored for quite some time. And that means lots of of doctor visits, tests, procedures, and new medications. So that's it, for right now. I AM consciously trying to drink more water, too. And, I bought a cheap $5 pedometer at Wal-Mart and couldn't get it to work but Matthew has been wearing it when he does his daily exercises and it works for him. So maybe he just needs to explain it to me.
ReplyDeleteI don't know what you can do for May, but I know for June, July, and August: Swimming at the lake with me and our kids! Swimming is great exercise! Of course, the pedometer wouldn't work in the water....
Thanks for responding, Caroline! I love to hear how others are doing. It inspires me to keep going. I'm glad you are joining our venture even if we are taking the wimps way. :) At least we are on the road! Swimming this summer sounds like a great way to exercise-that does, however, mean we will have to get in the water and not just sit and chat while our kids are swim.
DeleteOops-are swimming. :)
