Spring into Shape Bootcamp

Monday, May 02, 2011

This my first bootcamp and I am hoping it helps me get to my first goal! I am about 13lbs away, so I am working hard to stay with it and get to my goal. This is day two, which is pretty good for me! Usually I would have found a million and one excuses to not follow through today. I woke up late this morning but still made myself get two 10min videos done. I walked during lunch while the rain held off and then worked on cleaning the house to get the rest of my cardio completed. Tomorrow will be the test though! I have to be to work at 6AM (1hr, 45mins earlier than usual), but I get off at noon. My plan is to get tomorrow's cardio in by running....wish me luck! I'm gonna need it ;)

  

Suggestions on a good pedometer please

Saturday, February 26, 2011

Currently I am using a no name, freebie pedometer that is not tracking steps very accurately anymore, so I'm looking to upgrade without breaking my budget.

I have a couple questions for those that are more educated on this subject: Is there any other style than pocket or top of pant, clip on? I wear dress pants most of my work week and some do not have pockets. When I have no pockets, I end up not wearing my pedometer because when I try and wear it at the top of my pants, it rubs my skin raw :(

Any suggestions on pedometers or ways to wear it to get the most accurate readings are most welcome, as well as, suggestions on how to keep from getting raw skin when I wear one at the top of my pants (wearing a belt is not really an option for me.)


Thanks so much in advance,
Allyson

  

Does anyone know if there is an application for SP for a Blackberry?

Friday, July 10, 2009

Unfortunately, I do not get to get on SP as much as I would like. I have recently gotten a Blackberry and thought it would be awesome if there was an application for SP on Blackberry like the one available for iPhones. Does anyone know if there is one? If so, where can I find it? I would be able to keep better track of my food, exercise and water intake if I could enter if from my Blackberry....HELP!

There is a mobile site that I use from my Blackberry...there is a limited amount that you can do but it is nice to have. On your start page at the bottom it is under 'Popular Links' (iphone and mobile)...basically you use your Blackberry browser and go to http://mobile.sparkpeople.com and bookmark it. I really hope they come out with an app soon!!! Hope this helps... Report Inappropriate Comment

A new little mini goal...

Thursday, May 07, 2009

To ensure I am not only logging onto Spark, but also actually doing something to think of my goals and plans. I want get at least 30 points each day. This should not be unreasonable, as you get a point for this and a point for that very quickly if you have about an half hour or so. This way I'll be taking an active part in thinking about my goals and what I need to do to get there every day.


Does anyone else put a self goal of earning a certain number of points each day?

I've done that before. I think it helps alot. It makes sure that you are an active participant to your own healthy lifestyle. I make it my goal to make sure I log into to spark everyday. I love sparkpoints, it might be one of my favorite things about sparkpeople. Report Inappropriate Comment
