Week Number 6!

This is our last week! Everybody is doing a great job! We are going to get together for an awards ceremony/party probably in April since my anniversary is coming up in a few days. If we could coordinate days off and times off that would be great so I would know what day to plan for later on. I am thinking we could do a lunch type of thing. Everybody bring something light for lunch and we will give out prizes. I am going to go ahead and find something for prizes everybody who did the challenge can turn in their five dollars when they see me. This is what we will report on for our sixth week. I will be tallying up the totals to see who has won! I will look at the calendar. Our party will be the very last week or march or the first week or April. Everybody let me know when your days off are then if you work or if there are any conflicts. It would be great for everyone to be there. If that week doesn't work we will shoot for the next week. Everybody is doing great!

Problems with Pedometer Resetting!!!

I know a few of you have mentioned to me that your pedometers have reset themselves. I am betting the reset buttons on your pedometers are sticking out above the surface of your pedometers rather than being recessed. I have had pedometers in the past with the same problem. Here is a solution. In the past when I had a pedometer that was prone to reset itself, I took a plastic coffee stirrer, or basically a small plastic straw. I cut it down to size to fit around the reset button. It must fit around the entire reset button and be thin enough to pass between the reset button and other buttons. Then after you have your piece of plastic wrapped around the button you put a piece of scotch tape over it. That way the only way your pedometer is being reset is if you press the button with a pen. The piece of plastic acts like a guard. It may look ghetto, but it works. It is very frustrating to have a pedometer reset itself. This is a pretty simple solution compared to buying one that has a recessed reset button.

Week Number 1!

Welcome to the first week of our challenge. This is the post you will comment on to record your steps this week. If you cannot comment with an account, comment announymously and leave your name. As I said before we will walk Monday through Saturday. Make sure you write down your steps each day. Remember Sunday is our rest day. You can still walk on that day, but your steps will not count towards the challenge. I would suggest reporting your steps on Sunday or Saturday night after you have finished your steps for the week. Have fun walking!

I would like you to comment in this manner:
