I really need a pedometer...

Today I spent the entire day walking around the streets of Baltimore and the grounds of Ft McHenry. And now I wonder how far I actually walked.

I've had pedometers in the past. But because of where my pants line sits, the pedometer always jabs into my skin and it hurts like something ridiculous. I'd put it on my pocket, but I've been told that that can yield inaccurate results.

I've heard that a Fitbit is the way to go. If only I could afford it now. I know it's reasonable compared to some, but it's still quite a bit.

Do you use a pedometer? If so, what do you use? Is it reasonably priced? Or do you guestimate your distance walked/run?

Hope you're enjoying your weekend!

Winning

This week's weightloss: 2.5lbs.

Right on target! I was kinda concerned because at one point it had been 5lbs (I weigh myself daily) for the week, and I know that is not healthy.

Today I got a little off track. Poor planning left me breakfastless at work. So I went downstairs to the cafeteria (I was sooooooo hungry). The first thing I see laid out at the breakfast bar is donuts and pastries. And almost as an afterthought, they have some fruit on the side. And instead of choosing the healthy option, I go for the first thing I see: A glazed, fried donut.

By the time lunchtime came around, I was so busy, I felt guilty for having to even stand around at the microwave waiting for my Smart Ones flat bread to cook. Again with the lack of planning today, at 3pm, I was so stressed out and still hungry, so I went with the "Hungry? Why Wait?" slogan and grabbed a Snickers.

I had softball tonight, and was in charge of the beer cooler. I had a Yeunling, but only 1. I was very conscious of the empty calories. And then I got home and dinner was finishing off the homemade tabouleh I made for Memorial Day. I am considering making more tomorrow because it was so dang good. That, and I have 3 massive (MASSIVE) tomatoes my boyfriend bought me.

But I digress. This is hard. I'm not gonna lie. But I know I can do it. And 2.5 lbs is nothing to balk at. :)

What's your reason to celebrate today?
