Use Your Weight Tracker In Small Steps

Members Were Sparked

Instead of starting out with 100+ lbs to lose, start your goals small and increase them as you lose. By doing so, your tracker moves to the right seemingly at a quicker pace and is already in quite a bit by the time you extend your goal.

Start tracking your steps!

Using the step tracker on the fitness tracker, start keeping track of the number of steps you take. When I first started sparkpeople last year, I was walking about 3000 to 5000 steps per day. I joined a group that that had steps walked as one of their goals. I worked myself up to 10,000 + steps (recommended) within a year's time. Now I find myself walking more than that routinely!

All you need to start upping your steps is a good pair of walking shoes and a pedometer! 312 Getting a dof helped me get out more consistantly! 313
