My Fancy New Gadget

I've yet to make mention of my huge weight loss here. And yes, it means exactly what you're thinking. It hasn't happened yet. I could blame the freezing mornings for my not getting out and walking. But truth is I just haven't made it a priority. Which also means I haven't lost pound one. In fact, I've gained pound 1, 2, & 3. So I went out and bought a pedometer for kicks. Today's the first day I've worn it that I've gotten above about 500 steps. One is supposed to get 10,000. Today I actually got up and went for a walk. It was pretty chilly, but I made myself go. As I write this now I've gone 3201 steps. Still a long way off the 10K, but much much better than my norm of about 200. I'm hoping by having a counter on me most of the time I'll be motivated to see how high I can get it to go. Maybe tomorrow I'll go around the block twice.
