I set a new record today, at least for me....

So, I blogged about the little device I ordered online to track how much I move and how may calories I burn.  Today, I broke all my previous records.  I walked 16,357 steps or approximately 7.99 miles.  I'm gonna call it an even 8 miles, because I'm sure I will get up and go to the bathroom before the evening is over, and I already walked to the shower while not wearing the fitbit (for obvious reasons).  So, now that I really think about it, I'm sure it is over 8 miles!

I have to say, that the little device comes in handy.  Obviously it doesn't do any work for you, but it does make you want to move more to watch the numbers grow, and the little flower that is on it (It has a little flower icon that grows the more you move).  So, I can definitively say, that I think it was worth the money!

Speaking of moving more, I have found a new thing that I love to do.  Spinning!  If you have never tried it, you should.  If you are anything like me and get bored while working out on a treadmill or an eliptical and want to stop before you are really tired because of boredom, then spinning is for you.  It is quite possibly one of the best workouts I have ever had, and I don't get bored at all.  The instructor plays good music and keeps you engaged.  I'm definitely going to have to continue to go to spin class when I get back.
