Its good being back to routine, Im a bit of a routine buff!
Forgot my pedometer yesterday but know I did at least 5 miles walking kids to school and back. Did Day2 Week2 of c25k and also a few more planks for 12 secs before falling flat on my face!!
Anyway going to actually attempt day3 of c25k out at the park later instead of the treadmill, people say its much more rewarding outdoors. I get so embarrassed might wear a balaclava so no one recognises me!

Tentatively showing my face again in here 
My Fitbit is playing up and keeps resetting itself - I'm hoping it just needs a new battery - so have no steps to log but have done days 1 and 2 L1 Shred, 40 mins on the Wii (back in the obese range :cry and a good long dog walk yesterday.
Consequently, I am walking like John Wayne on a particularly bad day and can barely lift my arms!!

You have got some lovely numbers in there.
Did you have a lovely week?
It was great, we went to the zoo on one day, walked around some castle ruins on another day, the weather was lovely so we made the most of being outside!!

I will aim for 7000 steps today......
it might only be 7000 to some but the way I see it its better than the 1000 I would normally get in - and we are lapping everyone staying sat on the couch!

Hello.
Hope you don't mind me popping in.
I see you've all be tracking your steps and I like to make note of my steps as well and thought I'd join in here to help keep me motivated.
I'm going to set myself a daily challenge of 10000 steps per day and a weekly goal of 90000 because I often go over the 10000 steps per day, but don't manage it every day.
I've just started full-time at a job I was previously doing part-time and often hit 10000 steps doing this.
I'm going to judge it this week at 10000 steps per day and then maybe up my target next week.
A weekly goal will also make me feel better if I don't hit my daily goal on one day, I should still be able to hit weekly goal by counteracting it with a slightly more active day.
So...
Monday 19/5 - 11379 11379/90000
Tuesday 20/5 - 19860 31239/90000
Wednesday 21/5 -
Thursday 22/5 -
Friday 23/5 -
Saturday 24/5 -
Sunday 25/5 -
Would anyone like to join me in setting a weekly goal?

Absolutely!
I'm very active at work, but on my days off, I can struggle to hit 5000 steps.
So 7000 is a great goal.
Did you reach it?

Hi ladies, hoping I can join you. I ordered a fitbit tonight online so looking forward to starting to track my steps when it arrives later in the week. I have a really inactive desk job so hoping this will really encourage me to me more aware and move more!
