I aim for 10000 a day. some days I get there, some I don't.

I use mapmywalk and enter in other kinds of work outs, gardening if it is heavy work treadmill, swimming to get some idea if I am getting in enough calories. I think a lot more people use myfitnesspal. I would change, because I would like to have friends on that app, but I already have so much info at mapmywalk, that I don't want to move over. This way I know distance, calorie estimate, number of workouts, etc more than just steps taken.

Map my run syncs with my fitness pal I'm sure map my walk does too! Then you only have to enter it once and it moves it onto my fitness pal.

I have a Jawbone Up that I love. I aim for 10,000 steps a day and I'm incredibly competitive with myself. If I don't make my steps during the day I head outside and walk laps around the pool. My husband knows where to find me at 11:30 pm if the dog is sitting by the back door... He usually opens the door and yells out something along the lines of "you are insane thank god the neighbors can't see you goodnight watch out for raccoons the dog and I are going to bed!"

I often walk in my pajamas so I so I guess he has a point about the neighbors.

Did I mention I sing?

But I get those steps DONE!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
